He's not even a good number two in the Webber/Coulthard/Massa style any more.

Strong rumour they are going to go all out to get Lewis after next season and Kimi has been given the year as bringing in another driver they would need to offer them a long contract.

 

[Tredman]

Lewis and Seb in the same team, with a good car, would be fantastic, and probably carnage too.

 

[PuntsWolf]

They seem to get on pretty well and have a lot of respect for each other, in fact the pair have laughed at Robergs expense in the past.

I think they see him as the spoilt rich kid whereas they see each other as naturally gifted racing drivers.

 

[Tredman]

True, but equally i don't think either of them react nicely to challenges from within the team (Vettel v Ricciardo and Ham v Ros).

It would probably be all moot, unless Ferrari can actually get a car to challenge

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Seb got very pissy when Danny R started to outperform him at RB. We don't really know about Lewis, he beat Alonso at McLaren as far as I remember? And has generally dominated Nico when it matters.

I still think Jenson would make a great number two for a top team. He is superb on car development. Doesn't sound like he wants to finish yet either.

 

[Nando]

Promising to see Mclaren pretty competitive here.

Alonso is absolutely awesome to watch around Copse. Breathtaking corner.

 

[Nando]

Gearbox gone again for Vettel.

Good old Ferrari.

 

[Nando]

Raikkonen showing exactly why he's been given a new deal...

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Hamilton in trouble here. Lap deleted correctly but if it rains he is fucked.

 

[Kenny]

Nah...nails it.

The track limit stuff is bollocks again. Zero tolerance my arse, at least 6 cars went outside the limits and avoided time deletion.

 

[Nando]

Its only enforced at turns 9, 15 and 18.

 

[Kenny]

Kevin Mag went off on 2 off them twice. 1 was deleted 1 wasn't (hence Mclaren getting Button back in the car thinking he would be in Q2)

Doesn't matter anyway. Lewis is looking awesome around this track. Great to see Alonso pushing the Mclaren into Q3 again.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Bravo Kimi for wrecking your tyres on an outlap.

Lewis looking rock solid, I think this is another 2014 scenario where he's done Nico mentally.

 

[Freddeno]

Shame Lewis had so many problems with his car this year..Nico will walk it

Only issue ahead of Lewis is he knows he will have at least 2 grid pens for engine parts.

Nico is the favourite but right now he isnt clear and he won't be walking it.

 

[Freddeno]

He will win the champs kenny, written in the stars, who will challenge?

 

[Kenny]

Not written at all. 11 points is naff all. If Lewis edges himself into a points lead he can limit the damage on the grid pens. A ton of races still to come with this being a 21 race season.

Engines and such will likely break over the long season once again..i hope lewis wins because he is the better driver in my eyes but i just cant see it

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Hamilton will win it comfortably.
