Looks like they have just been given a slap on the wrist

Great reaction by Jenson over the radio as the car was (surprise surprise) struggling.

"Do you want to give it another lap?"

"No!"

Beeb reckon it'll be a fine rather than grid/points penalties.

Please let's have a good race this weekend. Generally it's a given with Silverstone but then so is Montreal normally and that was poor.

If Hamilton starts on the second row of the grid, then it could create an interesting race. But in all likelihood, Mercedes will sort his car out overnight and he and Rosberg will occupy their usual places.

Suzi Perry talking to Nigel Mansell, 'Us Brummies have got to stick together', hang your head in shame!

Alonso might not be taking part in Qualifying. His car has a leak and they can't find it!

Fair play to McLaren for finding a new and interesting way for the car to fuck up for each race.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Colour me shocked but it looks like Alonso is going to miss qualifying.

Yes, that shocked me as well...

Alonso is taking part, despite the coolant leak still being an issue

 

[Nando]

Its beyond a joke. Every week they sink to a new low.

Pretty much guaranteed grid penalties for the rest of the season and that's before you factor in further incompetence from the team and engine supplier.

10th after his first fast lap.

Good to see them clamping down on exceeding the track limits this week.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Both McLarens in the bottom five.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Good to see them clamping down on exceeding the track limits this week.

And Maldonado's been called up twice for it already. Cretin.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Raikkonnen caught too.

 

[The Bear]

It needs applying to the final corner as well. Plenty of cars going wide there and it's a quick corner so I reckon they are carrying more speed by going wide as they run to the line.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

They just applied it to someone in Club so that has warned those in the top ten shoot out as well

Pole for Lewis

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Mercedes cars nearly a second quicker than the rest.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Not great work from the TV director there, we couldn't see where or how Nico lost time and didn't see him cross the line either.

Mercedes cars nearly a second quicker than the rest.

No shock really. Good that Williams are ahead of the Ferrari's, might mean an actual race between the 4 drivers.
