2014 F1 Discussion

I like the way he ignored that one lol let's face it, if an aussie did that he'd be applauded.

What did he exactly say I missed it

Webber got podium in first WEC race at silverstone as well

Mercedes almost 100 points ahead in constructors

Mercedes won the championship in Bahrain when they pulled a 30 second gap in under 10 laps.

I was hoping the Red Bulls wouldn't be as far off the pace as they were... Of any track on the ENTIRE calendar, this should be where the gap is lowest. So there's no chance they will be able to fight for a win until 2015.

The fact that Rosberg got pole under very undiplomatic (or what they referred to as 'ironic') circumstances makes it all the better from a spectators view. Let's be honest: did anyone - other than Hamilton fans - want to see him beat Rosberg on the second attempt? It's far better that Rosberg remains in the championship as long as possible. If Hamilton was on pole, then he's won... so then there'll be no fun as he edges ahead another 7 points. The rather 'un-television disciplined' Alan Jones is so right in everything he says; Rosberg needed to parade the fact that he beat Hamilton (as minor a gap as it was) if he stands any chance in the future. He's cleaned up this race, so he'll take back the championship lead now. I believe we Aussies all love an underdog story.

In other news, I thought the onboard lap we saw of Vettel's was a really great moment. He was pushing damn hard the whole lap, and we saw most of it.

EDIT: So I visited F1 Fanatic, and I laughed my arse off SO HARD after scrolling down and reading the title of this article: http://www.f1fanatic.co.uk/2014/05/23/f1-fanatic-round-2305/
Hilarious! How things change.

Agreed man. I wish Jones was part of Sky, he'd be a bit like James Hunt!
Vettel's onboard was brilliant, but as was everyone else's too. I don't think he was 160 BHP down (like Jones suggested he might have been), otherwise he'd be MUCH slower. 160 BHP is a huge loss, even at Monaco. I still think Ricciardo has him well and truly covered atm. That's what, 5-1 in qualifying? Scary.

Lol

LOL, that's gold. The Sutil avatar is just classic too @N64TheStig007

Thanks, since when can you tag people @leeboy910?

I think Sir Jack Brabham will be looking down from the clouds, with a smile as wide as Ricciardo's, feeling as proud as can be. What a legend.
