    What is the point of Sutil?


    A safety car would screw Hamilton.

    Not "screw" as in be unfair, but it would've left him needing another stop and having a lot of the field to overtake again.

    Bothas will pit again I'd say, don't think those tyres will last.

    At that pace Hamilton could make another pit stop.

    He's faster than Alonso right now. Dunno if that means the tyres are alright or if he's pushing so he can make a stop then overtake Alonso.

    Hamilton may not get another chance if Bottas gets into DRS behind the backmarkers.

    Must say I don't get why they had such a short stint with Hamilton before this stint, I thought they would have tried to keep them roughly level. If they were covering off a safety car then I thought soft would've been better for a longish last stint.

    Watched all the support races and they were throwing safety cars out for all sorts of reasons. Yet a car is stuck out on the main straight and they don't put one out. Hmm seems like the organisers want a German driver to win.

    One podium all season, despite two ex-world champion drivers? Yeah, something not right there...I suppose it's the drivers fault though yeah?

    Good race, safety car or rain near the end would have shook things up nicely. Some good driving from Hamilton, the Button incident aside (though Button did look like he was leaving a ton of room, only to close the door). Alonso & Ricciardo battles were pure class.

    Cars evolve over a season with a constant stream if updates. and their characteristics suit different circuits. Ferrari probably has the largest budget for development.

    Are you saying the Ferrari car was crap at this race?

    That doesn't change the fact that the team is under-performing. Enda Kenny is the 3rd highest paid politician in the EU...sometimes you don't get what you pay for.

    By championship winning standards (ie how the judge themselves), they're a long way off where they want to be. So, yes, I am :)

    The time gap to the Mercs is pretty much as big as it's been all season.
