Lewis Hamilton is a fanny. I respect him as a driver, but as a person - he's a total fanny.

Last year he was all "I don't want success as easy as Sebastian" when Seb won a race by 30s.

We all know Merc would have won each race this year by at least 30s if they were trying.

This year Merc are 1s (edit - PER LAP) faster than anyone else. If not more.

Do you see Lewis offering to slow down? No. Instead he has grown a new American accent to boast about how fast he is.

Noticed an American accent before though..
 
In my mind, Senna was a great. Up against Prost in an inferior car in 93, Senna took 5 race wins.

Only Alonso has managed similar lately, and although I'm not a fan, I respect him far more than Lewis

I think Mclaren are biding their time. They have a new Honda engine next year. Not sure if I am correct in this but I think it is an exclusive arrangement too?

With Ron at the helm again they will improve but it will take time.
 
I agreed with you guvnor but thats what they said last season and they've only had one decent result really Australia, so how many season are they wanting to wait before things turn around.

Am pleased that lotus have improved grosjean seems to be getting the most from the car with his quali result.
 
I reckon Mclaren are probably devoting more development time behind the scenes to the 2015 car than they are to the 2014 car. Only time will tell I suppose. They don't look that far off the best of the rest this weekend based on yesterday. The rest of the field, excluding the Mercs, seems to be quite tightly bunched together.

Agree with that. Alonso has achieved a lot bearing in mind the Ferrari has been an inferior car for a while now.

Of the current crowd I would say Hulkenberg stands out with maybe Bottas just behind.

Yes the Honda agreement is exclusive, and I think it such for two years, which means that for next year they can build a car around an engine, aka Mercedes this year (one big question for me is if they can modify the design to split the turbo as per Mercedes as it makes for a much tighter package). This is one of the advantages of being a works team rather than a customer.

I also believe that McLaren started work on the 2014 car during the middle part of the year, if you recall they said as much, so I'm pretty disappointed that they are so far behind. Good luck to Williams today, love the sponsorship :thumbsup:
 
Unlucky for Seb starting so far back, will be interesting to see if he can crack into the top 5 by the end of the race
 
Ricciardo is making this look easy compared to Vettel

I might be unpopular for saying this, but the star of the race for me has been Vettel :driving:

Hmmm I don't know. As per usual some clever pit stops to eat clean air, then a lot of overtakes relying heavily on other drivers giving him room, probably too used to letting vettel by in the past when his car used to be untouchable. Good position gain all the same ...

I'm hoping Nico sneaks a win :thumbsup:

Same!

Re: Vettel - he should be expected to do what he's doing right now. The redbull is off the pace of the mercs but it is by no means a dog, as proven race after race by Daniel!

Eddie Jordan is embarrassing. He wants kicking into touch. :thumbsdown:

His interviews on tv can be a bit too informal, but I like him. Met him in Belgium last year, really nice guy. And he put on q+a session off the record strictly and away from the bbc, and had some very strong interesting views on all sorts of things that I think many would agree with.
