Must have missed that.
Yes that's not exactly subtle is it.
Truth is since they were kids karting, Lewis has always been faster than Nico in evenly matched cars.
If he gets reliability 100% yes.
But I don't think he will. I think a deal has been done and the German team want a German champion.
Well I hope not. Love to see these two settle it on the track. If a deal has been done, which is just so shifty by the by, and I'm not saying it isn't possible, but if it is and Lewie still wins the title, I'm going to have a whole new respect for him.
To be fair, Nico just figured it out and went on while Lewis was on the radio expressing his frustration about not knowing the issue, not being able to be told what it was or how to fix it by the team (due to FIA regs) and then saying he'd just change everything and hope for the best.
And man, how about that last lap at Le Mans?
Actually Nico had it easier - he switched into the 'faulty' mode, was given the basic message by the team and switched out again. Lewis started in the faulty mode but could not be advised by the team what to switch to, so he had to just keep trying different settings to see if he could find one that worked better.
Seemed like a dick measuring contest in the Canadian GP a few weeks ago. I rewatched it last night and I must have missed the Button fire the first time around. Apart from Le Mans, I'm glad I missed the Baku race. I recorded it but I've been told it was boring. RBR and Silverstone should prove to be fantastic.
The insanity that was the qualifying and practice were not matched in the race, but I agree. It was a fun watch.
It wasn't the best, but certainly not the worst. Beautiful city and I think they did a good job with the track. Certainly looked narrow in the old city part.
Great qualifying. After penalties Hulkenberg will be second and Button third.
Should be a cracking race. Bound to have a few safety cars with those metal sleeping policeman at the edge of the track. That and a bit of rain.
But Hamilton at the front should win as long as they set the engine mode correctly!

Probably, but if the conditions are changeable he is one of the best at making the right tyre choice at the right time.
I expect the Ferraris to make up a good few places at the start, especially Vettle.
yeah fingers crossed he only goes back to 10th...

looks like it stopped before they started ...

I'm thinking that will probably happen. The antics are just enough. I don't expect them to like each other, but their bickering has cost the company spending all the money loads of championship points.
Nico Rosberg is clearly an idiot and a danger to other drivers, hopefully he's replaced next year with this incident the latest in a series of incidents. First name that comes to mind is Pascal Werhlein who had a very good result today.
