    Do they not have to stay within 10 car lengths of the car ahead?

    Yes but I think they'll let them off as it was Fernando's fault

    That's the rule, didn't Vettel get into trouble or get warning at some point for leaving too much of a gap

    Hate to see cars out of the race for something like this, but it is a retirement within first five laps :pac:

    Hamilton I was actually talking about.


    What's the odds a few people come straight in for Inters, some spin off and Charlie ****s himself and puts the Safety Car straight back out?

    Sounds like some teams are thinking of following the SC in to change to inters right away

    Here we go. BBC website suggests they may get to 40 laps before conditions get too bad, meaning full points.

    I've only been up for 10 minutes - thought I'd missed the start. :P

    From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.

    Doesn't look ready for Inters I wouldn't have thought. Then again Jenson probably just needed tyres with some heat in them. :P

    Ricciardo said No to Inters. Coulthard (on BBC) made a similar point about heat, too - says that without heat, they're like Slicks.

    You'd fancy Hamilton here, if hadn't made that mistake he'd have passed him.

    I fear the Red Bulls will catch and pass Button pretty quickly. :(

    Good moves from both drivers to get past Massa - demonstrations of how to pass and be passed without collecting each other. :cool:

    Hamilton will win all the remaining races if his car holds up. He just has the beating of Rosberg each time you feel.

    Vettel not driving away from Bottas as quick as I thought he would, should be some fun between the Red Bulls soon.
