P2 results.

Usual story I guess. Dan only did 3 laps - had an off I think.

Apparently Verstappen did ok in P1 too for what that is worth.

Nando's going to McLaren!

[dezz]

Ricciardo had a fairly heavy impact

[tweety bird]

He took the blame too.

Yeh, funny. JEV can eat a dick. Dan called up for 2014 and now Kyvat called up for 2015 and still no seat for him at STR.

I still think Alonso could be staying at Fezz and this is Vettel to McLaren.

[Aggroman]

kyvat to the big leagues is still wayyyy too early, he needs another year at STR imo. he has driven well but not on the level of dan before the move to red bull still plenty of rookie errors and a far too aggressive style at times. lets hope Dan goes from 750K to 20 mil a year too now that the $$ has freed up.

interesting few weeks ahead. I would of liked to see nando back behind a renault, though who knows they may still score nando at the bull and pip Kyvat

[Roy]

Yeh. Sky now saying RBR garages are saying he is off to Ferrari

Marko being pretty classy too when talking about it

"Sayonara Biatch" good to see the back of the whingeing weiner. Hopefully he'll fade away into obscurity.

what i'd love to se is at the end of the season all F1 drivers thwon into a MMA cage, forced to skull hald a dozen duble JD's and then game on . Stop the the poor boy top bloke whining and crying and get it on and punch the crap out of each other if they don't like their teamates. I'd have my money on Kimi.

[dezz]

I'm not gonna enjoy wanting Vettel to do well next year...

[sh@un]

No-one with 4 drivers titles to their name is 'fading to obscurity' by any means

Wonder what ol' mate Jenson-San will be doing in 2015?

(not driving a McLaren at any rate)

Sweet!

[Aggroman]

good to see a bit of playful banter going on

[mickey]

Haha Massa made a funny.

No offence to JEV but he must of pissed someone off to be overlooked twice, unless who heads to a backmarker team his days of f1 look numbered.

Vet is no doubt switching because he's well aware that Renault have advised that the power unit for next year is still not going to be up to scratch and competitive. Relish the challenge? Not.

[Roy]

I think he just needs a new challenge. Still think it could be McLaren despite all the talk as Alonso could well make Fezz now pay out a contract or keep him to mess with Vettel.

Whatever the case the new Fezz management are retards for pushing Alonso out. Oh, and the release clause was if he wasnt in the top 3 in the championship he can leave. LOL, McLaren offer 40 million and he just tanks a few races and he is out of the contract

[sh@un]

Ron obviously has faith in next year's chassis and the incoming Honda power units.

[Roy]

McLaren built a decent chassis in 2012, and apart from that...when was there last non-dog chassis? If I was Honda I would be hoping that McLaren have a process in place to ensure that any new car isnt a lottery dip

[tweety bird]

Wet race will be interesting.

If they start the race..
