Formula 1 - Brazilian Grand Prix 2016 |OT| We've Got A Message For You...

[SpeedOfNuts]

We never saw how quick the Mercedes (well, Hamilton) was in overtake mode so hard to say, but yeah he looked to be the only one with the pace to fight them today.

Yeah I think HAM had a second in his pocket in the last stint.

 

[brotkasten]

Shhhh, don't piss on the parade

Gotta keep Heineken happy!

I must be soooo hard for you to endure this. Fucking Wonderboy, who's just a fluke and will buckle anyway.

Max and Lewis seem to like each other a lot.

Drivers always like each other, as long as they're not competing.

ROS accomplished his objective, but I think he was humilliated today.

VES with a performance to remember. Gotta mention SAI too.

I do wonder how Rosberg is going to feel, even if he should win the WDC. It can't be as satisfying as beating your teammate outright, fair and square.

 

[FuturusX]

Ves...is a monster. Future World champion no doubt.

 

[mrklaw]

A Hamilton-verstappen-rosberg podium would have even better for the championship. I think now rosberg can be 4th and still take it, so it should be a cruise to victory

 

[Zaru]

So in two weeks, we'll either see Rosberg celebrating on the podium, or looking devastated in the pits. (Unless Hamilton has a terrible race/DNF)

 

[JDB]

'Excuse me Nico'

hehe

 

[PdotMichael]

Rosberg is driving it so safe, it isn't even funny at this point anymore.

 

[Pterion]

When was the last time the WDC did not have the most wins, assuming Rosberg wins the WDC but Hamilton wins the next race?

 

[brotkasten]

Rosberg is driving it so safe, it isn't even funny at this point anymore.

Like I said, German efficiency.

 

[Tempy]

Rosberg is driving it so safe, it isn't even funny at this point anymore.

I don't blame him tbh, especially not in these conditions.

 

[Zaru]

When was the last time the WDC did not have the most wins, assuming Rosberg wins the WDC but Hamilton wins the next race?

Hamilton in 08

 

[krang]

I don't know. I find it hard to believe Rosberg is any more likely to be 3rd than 2nd in Abu Dhabi.

 

[Pterion]

Hamilton in 08

Oh wow. Completely forgot that. Were any of Massa's wins gifted to him by Raikkonen?

 

[aspiegamer]

Hamilton in 08

Wasn't this one of the things that started the points overhauls? I vaguely recall Bernie being pissed and wanted a bigger bonus for 1st over 2nd.

 

[Aiii]

Best podium interview I have ever seen, great banter.

 

[Upinsmoke]

I know every track suits Mercedes but are we looking at a comfortable drive for Nico in Abu Dhabi? Like he could cruise to second?

 

[cilonen]

Lewis with the psychological warfare there.

 

[John_B]

Oh wow. Completely forgot that. Were any of Massa's wins gifted to him by Raikkonen?

China.

 

[brotkasten]

Lewis with the psychological warfare there.

I didn't listen. What exactly did he say?

 

[DieH@rd]

They are chanting Nico!

 

[krang]

I know every track suits Mercedes but are we looking at a comfortable drive for Nico in Abu Dhabi? Like he could cruise to second?

Yes. Easily.

No other team will have an impact on the WDC now.

 

[Ruruja]

Oh no they're saying "Duel in the Desert" again.

 

[PdotMichael]

I know every track suits Mercedes but are we looking at a comfortable drive for Nico in Abu Dhabi? Like he could cruise to second?

Maybe with some rain.

 

[cilonen]

I didn't listen. What exactly did he say?

Brundle was complimenting him on his drive and asked him if it ranked up in his top five most difficult victories. Lewis iced it and came back super cool with "it was probably one of my easiest".

 

[Zaru]

Best podium interview I have ever seen, great banter.

My tv stream ended, would be thankful for a video of this

 

[Lach]

I know every track suits Mercedes but are we looking at a comfortable drive for Nico in Abu Dhabi? Like he could cruise to second?

I'd say yes. Unless we somehow get a wet race in Abu Dhabi.

 

[DD]

What a beautiful last race for Interlagos. Legendary circuit that will be missed.

And Massa, you bastard, you made me cry.

Max unquestionably the driver of the day. What a talent!

Great driving by Nasr too. I hope this will help him to secure a seat for the next season. Things have been hard for him this year, but the dude deserves another chance.

 

[scorcher59]

Oh no they're saying "Dual in the Desert" again.

it will hardly be a Duel

 

[theignoramus]

I think Max could've taken 2nd if RBR didn't try Inters, but Hamilton seemed pretty comfortable in front.

I think both Red Bulls couldve finished on the podium if they hadnt had that schizo pit strategy.

 

[Zaru]

What a beautiful last race for Interlagos.

Imagine saying that during the first two hours.

 

[Konosuke]

Last race for Interlagos? They're getting rid of it?

 

[sam777]

Abu Dhabi should be a easy 1-2 for the Mercs barring any technical issues.

 

[scorcher59]

Last race for Interlagos? They're getting rid of it?

Bernie needs his money

 

[theignoramus]

Mercedes has too much engine power for those longs straights in Abu Dhabi. There has to be fuckery in qualifying, at the start or in the pits for them to lose a 1-2 finish.

 

[brotkasten]

Brundle was complimenting him on his drive and asked him if it ranked up in his top five most difficult victories. Lewis iced it and came back super cool with "it was probably one of my easiest".

Heh, sneaky as always. This is with Rosberg needs to take the fight to him for once.

Last race for Interlagos? They're getting rid of it?

It's still up for negotiation.

 

[krang]

Bernie needs his money

Lauda's caps don't just grow on trees, you know.

 

[f0rk]

Last race for Interlagos? They're getting rid of it?

Bernie is threatening to like he always does. It just means they are in the middle of negotiating contracts, could go either way.

 

[FuturusX]

Let's talk about Vettel, his reputation is in free fall right now.

 

[Aiii]

I think both Red Bulls couldve finished on the podium if they hadnt had that schizo pit strategy.

With RIC I can get it, but with VES they should have just copy/pasted whatever Merc was doing.

 

[Lionel Richie]

I do wonder how Rosberg is going to feel, even if he should win the WDC. It can't be as satisfying as beating your teammate outright, fair and square.

If he wins the WDC he would have beaten his teammate outright. I don't understand this, Rosberg has the same number of wins as Lewis this year. If Hamilton wins the last race he would get his 4th win in a row yes but Nico started the year winning 4 in a row.

 

[Lach]

Great driving by Nasr too. I hope this will help him to secure a seat for the next season. Things have been hard for him this year, but the dude deserves another chance.

I mean he basically saved the team. Wonder how Sauber will go forward now in terms of drivers.

Spoiler

Other than signing as many as possible

 

[malyce]

Great achievement. Won't catch Schumi though,

Only person that has a shot at ever topping Schumi is Max. He has ~17 years left to do so.

Let's talk about Vettel, his reputation is in free fall right now.

Vettel is a great driver, no doubt, but he's been flattered by #1 status, Newey's genius and a weak teammate in Webber. Now Kimi is showing him up.

 

[Ruruja]

Earlier I was thinking "wow what an awful race to have as the first individual OT" but it turned out pretty decent!

 

[PdotMichael]

Great achievement. Won't catch Schumi though,

Soon a season will have more races than the entire 90's.

 

[PatjuhR]

What a race. Damnit.

 

[PatjuhR]

To bad we destroyed driver of the day for ourselves.

 

[Zaru]

Only person that has a shot at ever topping Schumi is Max. He has ~17 years left to do so.

It'll be a matter of career choices. You can end up like Vettel or Hamilton who luck into a championship winning car for several years, or like Alonso who spent a decade missing out.

 

[sam777]

Ha no one at Sky noticed Alonso's last 15 laps from last place?

 

[DrM]

Soon a season will have more races than the entire 90's.

Two years of another dominant Mercedes car and he would be quite close to Schumacher all time record

 

[Aiii]

To bad we destroyed driver of the day for ourselves.

Internet polls are never going to work for anything.
