the old aero packages generated too much downforce, and the FIA periodically has to fiddle with the allowable wing dimensions to keep cornering speeds reasonable

*waits for some retard to say driver and spectator deaths are a perfectly acceptable trade off for 'spectacle'*

yer coz tyres that delaminate is so much more ''safer''.................

[sh@un]

it's not like they explode. they just fall off a cliff quicker

anyway, Vettel starts P1. whaddya mean you're not surprised?

[mad082]

yer coz tyres that delaminate is so much more ''safer''.................

Having tyres that delaminate is safer than having higher speeds. One is only a drama at the end of the tyres life, the other means that if something goes wrong at a higher speed, there is more chance of injury or death.

[sh@un]

fading tyres = having to brake earlier = less cornering speed

obvious enough

[wolverine]

Up and ready.

[Scottydoo]

Ferrari pushing the rules to the limit and deliberately getting Massa a grid penalty to move Alonso up another spot. Clever, but if it was Red Bull doing that everyone would be spitting chips calling them cheats

[sh@un]

yeah- Ferrari stooged him hardcore

ok Austin TX, show me sumfin'

[wolverine]

Nice effort on Button, the old Schuey Chop.

[wolverine]

Ricciardo running nicely in race in full race trim, up to 12th.

[sh@un]

nice pass from the Kimster

carn Ham!

[wolverine]

KERS failure again for MW

[Scottydoo]

Another KERS failure for Webber!

Then bam out, no luck

[sh@un]

has Webber had the least reliable car this year?

[sh@un]

2.4 pit

[sh@un]

nice work Ham and But

[wolverine]

They should be pitting Dan. He is losing time to the guys he is racing now.

[sh@un]

LEWIS!!!

[wolverine]

Hamo getting past Bieber, now he can contemplate how it good it feels possibly for the 2nd last time in the forseeable future.

He will be lapping Rosberg soon so he will get a good look at the POS he will be driving next year.

JENSON!!!
