Even after spending a year seeing what sort of impact tests they subject the cars to as part of their development i still cringe when i see crashes like that

Really hope he's ok...

Looked like something around the hub failed, could have been a caketin...

Caused a blowout and complete tyre failure as well...

Nice to see the thumbs up though

Was a great race, sadly I feel Hamilton is drifting away from a possible title, the Ferraris are really pulling the extra pace out of the bag.

Not really. McLaren are suffering this year from a lack of experience. Hekki and Lewis have 40 races between them. People slate Alonso, but he brought a wealth of setup knowledge with him. McLaren handled him badly,which irritated him and started all the shenanigans last year. They should of supported him more (yes, even at the expense of Lewis who WAS a rookie without 2 championships to his name) and he would be there this year and probably much closer on pace and points.

Bottom line is that LH and HK cannot guide a team yet. McLaren wont win either title this year.

i thin you were watching a different race mate

the rarri's were strolling along as the car was so good, lh was struggling and everyone noticed, but didn't comment on, the fact that he was sitting way way back from alonso to the detriment of his race

forget getting into the dirty air etc, they've all spent millions of hours running around that track so there is no excuse for his car to be handling as badly as he made it look either

he perked up afterwards but by then the rarri's had already prooved that they were uncatachable so it was left for the other to squabble of the remains of the points

you have to wonder if big burny the man in charge is having something to do with it

anyone remember his quote on the grid of last years last GP that hamilton will be a future champion but not in the next couple of years

think it would embarase to many people to have the rooke walk away with it

Yeah thats it.


Multi National car companies pour Billions of Dollars into a sport so the man who controls the commercial rights can dictate who wins.

Lucky not to get a broken leg I think!
