Haha!

"I can't drive any slower!"

Can we have a "drivers radio" option on the red button, so that's all we listen to during the race, some of this is comedy!

ZG002 · 12 May 2013 at 13:49

Lol tyres. This is complete rubbish!

Incredibly artificial though. Different people on different strategies or with tyres that are fried.

Seems a little unusualy that "Hard" tyres won't do much more than 15 laps round here, unless it's unusually abrasive.

Is it more about the management team coming up with strategy and tyre management than the car and driver racing hard these days?

Cavallino · 12 May 2013 at 13:50

Man.. Alonso just relentless.

Amazing that we have had these **** tyres for a few years now and only when it effects Lewis are people getting so vocal about them, a few years back a majority on here said they were providing interesting unpredictable racing.

They have always been ****.

Lunatic Dreyfus · 12 May 2013 at 13:51

Oh Lewis, even though you made your bed... I actually feel sorry for you having to lie in it.

Cavallino · 12 May 2013 at 13:51

Would love Webber to cruise up behind the KR/SB battle.

MagicBoy · 12 May 2013 at 13:52

We made it to lap 32 before the Lewis fanboi comments. A new record?

Bar · 12 May 2013 at 13:52

Just wondering if we run the risk of people running out of tyres at this pace: Lap 30 and most teams have already done 2 stops - could we see four / five stops today?

knip · 12 May 2013 at 13:52

Haha, Rob Smedley sounded like he was doing rudies on Massa's radio then!

"Yeah, thats right, just there, keep it right there!"

Cavallino · 12 May 2013 at 13:52

Damnit why couildnt they take themselves out

ZG002 · 12 May 2013 at 13:52

The majority yes, some others like myself no. Hated these tyres for ages, I can't stand drivers not giving it 100%

That's kind of what I was heading at. Not "Oh no Lewis is slow. Waaaahh".

Yeah I know but for people that are watching at home and don't understand the in's and out's of the sport it does make it a better watch.

Nice from Raikkonen there.

PinkFloyd · 12 May 2013 at 13:53

Stratos · 12 May 2013 at 13:53
