Car-loss for Carlos

Spoke to soon

Glaucus · 25 Oct 2015 at 14:07

Chance of them fixing it in 4 and a bit hours.

Red flag possibly to recover car back to put asap, for fixing?

Well that may well be that

Housey · 25 Oct 2015 at 14:08

Earning money today, get em out again, makes for good telly.

Psycho Ned · 25 Oct 2015 at 14:09

WTF would happen now if they didn't come back out again?! Grid from the people who have set times in Q1, go back to FP3?

Grid for those that set a time, rest in championship order?

Amazing lap by Hamilton, Ricciardo did well but it was his second lap, always going to be faster. Hamilton's ability to go out in unknown conditions and just bang a lap in is truly amazing.

Rosberg... lol, did anyone see him being overtaken into the last corner of the outlap by Kvyat, he was being a complete idiot not getting himself in space then I think it was Verstappen passed him down either that straight or the next long straight and ended up 11 seconds down ruining his lap. Others were following fairly close if that is just how it turned out and put in a decent lap.

Glaucus · 25 Oct 2015 at 14:15

So MB thinks those who set a time, will start in those positions, everyone else be lined up in order of sochi.

Flibster · 25 Oct 2015 at 14:16

Everyone out on track except the Red Bulls and Sainz... for obvious reasons.

Flibster · 25 Oct 2015 at 14:21

Oh... track is getting wetter and Hamilton mullers the lap. :eek:

Psycho Ned · 25 Oct 2015 at 14:21

Hamilton is on another level to everyone else here.

Glaucus · 25 Oct 2015 at 14:21

Ouch, now don't bin it.

Wow ric

drunkenmaster · 25 Oct 2015 at 14:22

Hamilton still being simply amazing, 1.8 ahead of Rosberg. Ricciardo doing a great job himself but the second lap is always faster. On the outlap you get an idea of grip but not full speed so first lap is guesswork, second lap is pushing where you felt more time.

Ricciardo's second lap before the red flag was also a huge step forward on his first.

Joe! · 25 Oct 2015 at 14:23

Damn Ricciardo.

It's obvious Lewis is going to be the top of his game this weekend, it's to decide his WDC.

Edit: Damn, Vettel was lucky.

Flibster · 25 Oct 2015 at 14:23

Rosberg has woken up!

Hamilton has aborted this lap.

Few people using new tyres. Massa has done 23 laps on this set, Kvyat on 19, Bottas done 20, Vettel 16, Ricciardo 19.

CaptainRAVE · 25 Oct 2015 at 14:25

Gutted to be missing this, but should be good highlights.

Glaucus · 25 Oct 2015 at 14:26

Tracks certainly improving a lot, it's going to be last over the line.

Flibster · 25 Oct 2015 at 14:27

Rosberg asking a moronic question.

"Why are we going for another timed lap?"

Because it's drying up.

Psycho Ned · 25 Oct 2015 at 14:27

Ricciardo is such a talent, he'd be right up there in the WDC if Red bull didn't have crap in the back.

Rosberg needing his backside wiping for him as usual.
