Competition is much closer now, I thought Merc would have advantage at least until Europe but it seems not so, others have caught up.

Methinks we will have much more competitive racing this weekend.
 
7'ish am FP3........9.50am Quali tomm.

And the best thing, we repeat next weekend :)

Red bull definitely doing much better than two weeks ago.

With 75% of the race being on full throttle, the Merc engines are bound to be dominant over race distance IMO. It's in Mercs interest to sandbag - they don't want other teams whinging about an advantage...
 
Interested to see how their turbo cars get traction in the wet.

Anyone seen a dyno type graph graph for these f1 cars?
 
Are there free live streaming sites.
 
I want to know what they did when he had a problem at the beginning and he was called in... next thing he is able to challenge the Mercs! Ctrl-alt-del my foot! :D

Well, apparently Ferrari had a ctrl-alt-del problem last weekend, for the first few laps. FIA control systems giving issues, until reboot during race. One of the commentators talked about it during qualifying.
 
At the risk of being ridiculed, I'm beginning to really enjoy the sound of the new motors and turbos. It's like the difference between someone who can't keep quiet about the job they're doing (older engines) vs those who get on with the job quietly. Incredible power for a 1600cc.

Probably more like Ctrl-Alt-Del *upload new firmware and engine mappings* reset :D
 
Mercedes dominance is still concerning. They are holding back and Seb is still 13 seconds behind Lewis. That is just ridiculous...

I'm enjoying things too... and in my home, I am now allowed to watch at a higher volume. This means I can actually hear what is going on.
