Ros got into 1st down from 6th at this track... and still ended 4th with a busted car ;)

if Ros had done what Ham did, turning into him, at any of the previous incidents where Ham ran Ros wide, the world would still be bitching at Ros, he just can't win ;)

But yeah completely unnecessary block by him

Agreed, for a guy that "can't drive" he made some great for position passes after his pit stop to get himself into the lead. If it wasn't for that safety car, Hamilton may never have caught up by the end of the race.

Rosberg tried to pull a Hamilton but got it wrong. It's still his fault, but you're right, if the situation was reversed Rosberg would have received the blame for turning in.

I really dislike the SKY F1 coverage this year.
Couthard & Edwards were way better than Brundle & Croft.

i hate these two with some serious passion

There is a difference between squeezing someone who's attempted to send a pass around the outside at the exit and blowing your braking causing a collision.

It's painfully obvious this collision was Rosberg's fault.

That being said, I usually blame Rosberg anyways because he's an entitled whiny baby.

I have no real issues with the sky coverage.

Regardless if you prefer sky or bbc, I'm just enjoying the fact we can now watch extended post-race coverage and interviews this season.

Rosberg is on final warning according to his communications officer. Can't wait to see his ass thrown out of mercedes, hopefully out of F1.

we all know he went deep and wide, we all know he was pulling a hamilton, we all know that that's wrong even though it's allowed regardless of who is doing it, but Ham fans seem to not get the last two parts... we also all know that ham turned into ros ;)

they've both been warned, but i highly doubt mercedes will punish either of their drivers



Also, ugh the stewards here don't seem to be taking their rules of keeping the car on track seriously

I agreed, very happy that now we have pre and post coverage.

hate safety car starts... and wow the brits were really going nuts today, you see how many people stayed waaay past the ending? the coverage is over and the track is still filled with fans

hamilton went crowd surfing lol

Finally a race with a bit of excitement lately.
Bring on the Sabotage/Conspiracy theorists!

That dive by Rosberg........
Weber did the smart thing during interview!

Lol @ Hamilton fanboys that think Mercedes is sabotaging his car. Pretty entertaining race, that battle between Ricciardo and Verstappen was awesome.

its not mercedes, its the people who run f1.
pretty much all sports are rigged, even the one i played

DAMNNNNN! What a move by Hulk overtaking Bottas!

"See ya later" :lol: :lol: :lol:

Why can't F1 drivers just admit when they fucked up?

Reporter: "Lewis, what happened at the start?"

Hamilton: "I don't know, I'll have to check with the engineers"

Yeah, the engineers fucked up you dumping your clutch too hard and stalling.

??wut

Did you even watch the post race interviews? Ok I'll transcribe. EXACT WORDS:

Instant Video Play > F1 2016 Japanese GP Lewis Hamilton Post-Race Interview

Reporter: What happened at the start can you tell us?

Hamilton: Just got some wheelspin

Reporter: Wheelspin, was it because the track was damp or was it because of just these difficult variable clutches?

Hamilton: Umm, I'm not really quite sure, I have to see what the engineers say.....

Yeah, WUT??? indeed.

Ya then he said after speaking to the engineers it was his fault. You do realize it isn't a simple procedure and the Merc has a known issue which they can't fix in 2016 with starts. I get you don't like hammy but damn you're nitpicking here.

rich

Actually I rooted for Hamilton back in his McLaren days.
It's recently he's turned into a bit of a diva, as evidenced by some of his behaviour lately.
I'm not being nitpicky, I just call it how I see it. Maybe I'm totally off base oh well.

MAX VERSTAPPEN! Un fucking believable drive!

:bowjerk: :bowjerk:

Verstappen's drive was Senna-esque. I really like how this kid is stirring shit up.

I've hated Maxipad since he started driving like a cunt, but I have to admit his rain performance at Brazil was awesome and so refreshing to see considering everyone but Ham was having trouble, I was actually expecting max to dnf or cause some dnfs but no he just killed it

Also Massas last run and walk was so fucking sad :(

I was surprised that the veterans and usual top Rian performers didn't do well

Surprised no one updated today!

Happy to see Nico win. But everyone ragging on Lewis for slowing down Nico is ridiculous. AMG won the constructors races ago. The team had nothing left to gain, they should have shut up and let the two race (short of Lewis wrecking Nico).

Where is the racing spirit? They want Lewis to lose by 2pts and not even attempt to stir it up? Disappointed in AMG's orders.
