OMG YES!!! all i really cared about after that point was a McLaren podium, because i knew no one would catch Rosberg, and I got that!

also, what are the posting guidelines in here with regards to spoilers? just so i know if i can go in here day of or to wait a day or two haha

 

I believe the guidelines are don't come in here until you've seen the race or it will get spoiled for you.

Also, wtf Red Bull?!? I feel so bad for Daniel Ricciardo losing his 2nd place finish. Super crappy.

we've never had any spoiler rules; up to the user's own recognizance.

 

Wow, no comments after the race? Ricciardo got screwed again, Massa not listening to team orders, Mercedes looking like a powerhouse, Ferrari still looking weak, so much drama lol.

 

Meh. F Red Bull.


I don't blame Massa one bit for what he did, I think most drivers would've done the same thing, unless the other driver was up his ass. You never know, they may have done it to say "Hey Felipe, speed up".



As a side, I'm not fond of the sound of these cars, they sound wrong.

 

I say sod off to Magnussen

I had Lewis, Nico and took a flyer on Kimi. If not for Magnussen cutting his tire, I think he'd finished top 6. Oh well, I'm sure I'll get my Ricardo points back from Australia

Does seem like Red Bull is generally figuring it out. Ferrari seems still behind. I had some hopes for Williams, but it seems like they are still second tier

 

Lotus or bust! We'll probably get the latter.

 

I got no love for Red Bull either, but they are actually interesting this year & I'm really cheering for Daniel to succeed & take it to Vettel. I agree that Massa wasn't dragging ass & didn't need to let his teammate pass. He's gotta earn it.

I'm really disappointed in Kimi. I've always been a fan of his & it sucks that Ferrari is almost like a 2nd tier team so far. I'm hoping that they get it figured out.

Why the FIA feels the need to make this a "green" sport is beyond any logic. It's supposed to be the pinnacle of racing and be amazing in every way. Instead we get "Fuel Flow" graphics during the race showing % of fuel used so far. Ridiculous. The sound of the cars is appalling. I think our S2000's sound better than these strange engines, and I did find it interesting that during the broadcast Steve Matchett (or however it's spelled) said that he only thinks that AMG Petronas Mercedes is utilizing the full 15k redline. Maybe they will sound a little different when the manufacturers figure out how to actually make these ridiculous engines function as intended.

Ok, that's the end of my rant about this new F1 season. I'm gonna be @ Gingerman this weekend so I won't be able to check out the qualifying/race until Monday. Hopefully it's a good one.

 

Watch out for a suspiciously fast white miata this weekend
