Live timing working for anyone?

lord lucan · 31-07-2011 1:04pm

2 Mercs away like the clappers!

amacachi · 31-07-2011 1:05pm

Hamilton being a little silly holding Button off so hard, Rosberg similar too.

Ferraris seem to be picking up some pace now, Hamilton flying now too with Button dropping back.

How wet is it?

Not wet enough to wash the oil off the track - it's very slippery out there.

Glico Man · 31-07-2011 1:06pm

No one's got any grip... at all... whatsoever

Great driving so far. By which i mean everyone keeping it on the track... so far

Autosport · 31-07-2011 1:06pm

Hammy and Vettel gonna take each other out maybe???

amacachi · 31-07-2011 1:06pm

Come on Lewis, pass him at ANY COST! :pac:

If he did it didn't make a difference. Started today saying "Sky has closed in"

Mark Webber got a dig in too - he spoke to the BBC after talking to Bernie Ecclestone. "We were talking about Sky ... I mean The Sky ... "

dear god my language is scandalous

amacachi · 31-07-2011 1:08pm

Perfect amount of rain.

DRS on, get in. Should make Hamilton nice and unstable into turn one. :pac:

Autosport · 31-07-2011 1:09pm

Drifting anyone??? god this is racing

IvySlayer · 31-07-2011 1:09pm

Great stuff so far

amacachi · 31-07-2011 1:10pm

Ferraris are so much quicker than everyone else right now, seem to be having trouble holding it on the road though.

Looking forward to when the slicks go on, track looks amazingly dry until they show an on-board shot.

lord lucan · 31-07-2011 1:10pm

Schumi must have taken an off track excursion somewhere!

amacachi · 31-07-2011 1:10pm

Feckin live timing.

bnt · 31-07-2011 1:10pm

In Canada, Vettel showed that he can be pressured in to making a mistake - and I suspect that's what Lewis is doing today. But the grip isn't really there for either of them ...

edit: there you go!

Mike Litoris · 31-07-2011 1:11pm

Come on Hamilton!

Autosport · 31-07-2011 1:11pm

Come on Button, pass him

amacachi · 31-07-2011 1:13pm

Lood lad Lewis, driving properly today I have to admit.

Vettel is probably going to be one of the first onto the slicks I'd say. Though hopefully it'll be like Canada and oly the McLarens can use them in the damp conditions. :pac:

naughto · 31-07-2011 1:13pm

vettle no good when not leading from the front,come on button

IvySlayer · 31-07-2011 1:13pm

Push the yellow button!!!

Glico Man · 31-07-2011 1:14pm

"No rain expected for 20 minutes"

May be more rain later then!!

\0/

Although, saying that, the race doesn't need it. Been great so far!

amacachi · 31-07-2011 1:16pm

Not dry enough for slicks yet, they're only about 13 seconds off what I think they'd be running on a dry track and there's some very wet areas still, can't see much overtaking by someone on slicks.

amacachi · 31-07-2011 1:17pm

I'd say Button is dying to get the slicks on.

Autosport · 31-07-2011 1:17pm

Alonso and Rosberg are having a nice little battle

back working now

amacachi · 31-07-2011 1:19pm

Heh, love to know what gap they want to put Vettel into.:rolleyes:

Hamilton should have this in the bag, another 5 laps or so and he can pit and stay more or less at the front and choose his line even on slicks.

That latest satelite radar suggests slicks may be a pretty huge gamble.

Autosport · 31-07-2011 1:21pm

Webber pitted

bnt · 31-07-2011 1:21pm

Webber seems to be the Red Bull guinea pig this season - team trying tactics out on him before Vettel.

amacachi · 31-07-2011 1:22pm

If I were a mechanic at the next pit area when someone on slicks is revving pulling out on slicks on wet concrete I'd probably ****e meself. :pac:

Webber looks pretty much as quick as anyone else once he's heated the tyres up.

Autosport · 31-07-2011 1:23pm

Webber, Massa and Button have changed to slicks

amacachi · 31-07-2011 1:24pm

Fingers crossed this will be like Canada.

Autosport · 31-07-2011 1:24pm

They all seem to have pitted now

Autosport · 31-07-2011 1:25pm

Shumacher leading the race

Glico Man · 31-07-2011 1:26pm

Go on JB!!

Autosport · 31-07-2011 1:26pm

Button overtakes Vettel and Webber overtakes Alonso

lord lucan · 31-07-2011 1:27pm

Go on Webber!!

Autosport · 31-07-2011 1:28pm

Webber u were lucky there

bnt · 31-07-2011 1:28pm

"Do not overlap brakes and throttle." You don't say?

amacachi · 31-07-2011 1:29pm

Something I've noticed before about Vettel and there was another example there. When he's under pressure he seems to half-brake-check whoever's behind him through apexes?

Top 3 all on more or less the same pace at the moment.

amacachi · 31-07-2011 1:31pm

Everyone outside the top 10 should be lapped in about 12-15 laps. :pac:

EDIT: Vettel looking like he has a bit in his pocket when he needs it, matching Button in every sector.

Autosport · 31-07-2011 1:32pm

Alonso is all over Webber, this is good exciting racing

amacachi · 31-07-2011 1:33pm

Button dropping 0.7 to over a second in the middle sectors for whatever reason.

Autosport · 31-07-2011 1:34pm

Yea Button seems to be slowing

And as soon as you say that he sets the fastest lap :pac:

amacachi · 31-07-2011 1:36pm

10 minutes of rain expected in 10 minutes. Should be interesting. :pac:

Autosport · 31-07-2011 1:39pm

Trulli had a oil leak

amacachi · 31-07-2011 1:40pm

Wondering if Button has taken better care of his tyres, fastest of the top 3 the last couple of laps after Hamilton was setting loads of fastest laps.

Glico Man · 31-07-2011 1:40pm

Hammy coming up on a mass of traffic

Perez, Sutil, Kovaleinen (sp?), Heidfeld and Maldonado
