You bros see Bahrain!?

Merc needs restrictor plates or added ballast...

[EeePee]

Yeah, maybe.

Shit was awesome! With a flip, even!

**** Vettel!

[GySgt Hartman]

Flip... Who'd a thought a donkey dick on the nose dragging on the ground forming a ramp would be a issue. Sometimes the FIA makes me shake my head.

[EeePee]

Sky Sports did a virtual recreation of it, and virtually determined it was the tires. I watched it a few times in slow motion, and I don't think the nose had anything to do with it. Had a good viewpoint from the inside of the corner, too.

See, watching that sub par ABC or NBC coverage... shit's weak.

[GySgt Hartman]

Lol, I'm still blaming it on the donkey dick.

I gotta say that track looked amazing under the lights. I'd love to travel there if it wasn't for the whole middle east thing.

[Postclanker]

The competition is great, even amongst the team drivers. Ya Merc is running real well, but the rest of them will be there soon enough. Given that, I'm surprised at how ONLY Merc has this figured out.

Ferrari be pissed....

Eepee- I'm sorry to interrupt this thread- but the video with the bike inner tube on the muffler made me damn near cry laughing.

Actually there was a great "get" by Will Buxton. He caught-up with Luca Di Montezemolo who was leaving the track mid-race. Will asked him (don't quote me) if he had an early flight or was he disgusted by the Ferrari's performance. Needless to say Luca's response makes me wish I was a fly on the wall when Luca addresses the team back in Modena...

I was disappointed when Peter Windsor left, but Will has proven he has balls.

"So, an early flight, or too much to watch?"
"Both."


I read it was something like that.

I read it was something like that.

So Ferrari's private jet (aka Luca's jet) needed to be somewhere else...

The race was fantastic. I read comments from a lot of people saying it was boring because Mercedes had such a big lead and this and that. If they wanted a close race the other teams should have built such shit cars. Mercedes is on their game. I'm not a Mercedes bandwagoner, but I do like Hamilton and Rosberg. I'm still cheering for Kimi and now Magnussen, but the other teams need to get their act together quick. Also great to see Vettel actually have to battle for position, and even though his car wasn't the best this weekend, it goes to show what I've been saying for a while, he's a fast driver when out front in clean air, but not that great of a racer in a pack.

With Maldonado being Maldonado, it was his tire that caused the flip. BBC showed a couple different angles and you could see his tire go underneath the Sauber's (Not even going to attempt to spell his name lol) rear tire and lift it up.

Although it might have been an allergic reaction from the Sauber for how fawking ugly the Lotus is...

[EeePee]

Had it only been one Merc way out front, then that part would have been boring. Thankfully both Mercs were putting on a hell of a show.

Maldonado needs to stop being Maldanado, or leave. He can't seem to rack up enough penalties on his license to get kicked out somehow. I think you only get 12 points. That crash should have been 12 points.

Formula One racing’s governing body, the FIA, confirmed on Friday that it has accepted an application from Gene Haas to enter a new team in the F1 world championship.

The American NASCAR team owner’s entry was granted after a lengthy evaluation process and the new squad now hopes to be on the grid for the 2015 season.

Following Friday’s meeting of its World Motor Sport Council in Marrakech, the FIA also announced that a study on the noise produced by 2014’s new turbo V6 engines is underway, with preliminary results expected shortly, and that the relevant stakeholders will be meeting next month to clarify how to achieve a substantial cost reduction for F1 teams.

Hamilton says what?

Alonso is a bad ass.

[canadianbacon]

It's almost not even fair how much better Mercedes' car is than everyone else's. It just shows they did their homework.

Also, I LOVED how annoyed Vettel was getting. It also showed again today that he's just a fast driver, not a racer.

[cartronicshn]

mercedes is kicking ass ala ferrari in schumacher years and vettels previous red bull years, everyone is being left behind in their wake
