That was a massive accident for Grosjean

Out of nothing as well.

 

[ROVERT47]

Cracking slow-mo footage, just shows how good the safety measures in place are nowadays.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

So there is a hole punctured in the safety barrier. How are they going to fix that so it is safe if another car hits it at over 100 mph? Of course, they will cover the hole with masking tape. That's alright then.

 

[ROVERT47]

They need to find a couple of rolls of bubble wrap from somewhere.

I guess Mercedes are still off Bernie's Chrimbo list. Hamilton barely featuring in the coverage despite leading. This sort of petty shit is a damn good example of why the vertically challenged payer of bribes to courts trying him for alleged bribery should fuck off out of the sport.

Until they agree to give Red Bull engines, limited air time innit

Which is exactly the same as Ferrari are doing. But Bernie can't afford to act the cunt with them. I am rather enjoying how Mercedes are just ignoring Bernie. Hope he is enjoying his posh seats with that tyrant Putin today.

Hamilton on screen for first time in 20 minutes.

Probably got a lot in common.

 

[ROVERT47]

Don't they just focus on where ther might be some overtaking?

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Normally they would do reasonably regular flashbacks to the leader for a few corners. Bernie has ordered that reduced for Mercedes because he is a petulant child.

 

[ROVERT47]

What's behind it?, isn't just similar to how everyone hated Steve Davies when he was winning everything in the eighties, Liverpool likewise and Man U in the nineties and noughties, I guess everyone just hates a winner eventually.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Red Bull have shit Renault engines. They want Mercedes to supply their engines for next season but Mercedes have refused to supply Red Bull. Bernie doesn't like this, so has ordered less Mercedes coverage to try and piss off their sponsors.

Naughty Kimi. Just torpedoed Bottas' race.

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

Naughty Kimi. Just torpedoed Bottas' race.

That was the first GP I have watched in over 10 years, and what a finish it was! The race for 4th place was superb.

Bottas must be gutted, Raikkenen was very naughty there. Poor old Red Bull too, both cars having a decent run and then both gone in the space of a minute.

 

[Kenny]

So if Lewis wins in Austin and Vettel finishes no higher than 3rd it's title number 3

He only needs 2 more points to take Nico out of it and 9 for Vettel.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Bottas did well not to react like JPM a few years ago:

 

[Kenny]

Kimi gets a 30 second time penalty (basically the equivalent of giving him a drive through penalty as they reckon the pit lane takes 25-30 seconds to drive through). Pushed him down to 8th and means Mercedes are the Constructor Champions again

 

[Kenny]

Alonso given a 5 second penalty for exceeding the track limits (was given a warning during the race, so stupid on his behalf) and misses out on 10th spot as he goes down to 11th.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Bernie Ecclestone on Sepp Blatter:

I don't think he should have ever stepped down. I don't think he should have been challenged.
"If people allegedly have been corrupted to make things happen in their country, it's good. It's a tax football had to pay.

Bernie on Putin

[Putin is good as there is] no place for democracy".

Fucking retire you bellend
