Vettel

"moved slight to the left at the start"

yes for sure, but he was in front and had the right to do so

 

[Ax^]

Vettel will not get any blame for that, he had track position. He would not have seen anything behind because of the spray

he may not get any blame but it was a bit of a naughty move

has been mention on the race commentary that hakkinen got a one race ban back in the day for a simular move

I can't remember a race start where the pole sitter hasn't moved over to cover off the driver in 2nd place

 

[Ax^]

we shall agree to disagree ..


think Vettal over cooked it trying to cover Max

 

[Badgers]

Embarrassingly race for Ferrari

Embarrassingly race for Ferrari

Yup.

Aggregate race duration for Ferrari, 11 seconds.

Ish.

 

[Limejuice]

I reckon Jenson Button would have been switching to slicks about now.

He was always ace at managing the transition.

 

[1%er]

Kimi looked like he was going to court

 

[Ax^]

go k-mag

 

[weltweit]

Bit processional at the moment.

Hopefully the change to slicks might bring some more action.

 

[spitfire]

Well that's one way to get on the telly. Be first to go to slicks.

 

[Ax^]

He is having a nice race bashing around with massa

 

[1%er]

go k-mag

This could liven things up a bit

Has there been any announcement by the stewards saying they are looking at the first lap incident? Because of the rain I'd have thought they'd put it down to a racing incident

 

[Ax^]

said they were going to investigate after the race


going to be a racing incident methinks

Racing incident for me.

(Or, you know, whimsy of the gods.)

 

[1%er]

I can't wait to hear Kimi's view of what went on

 

[Ax^]

Ericsson

 

[yardbird]

Another safety car.

 

[weltweit]

I would like to see a stop motion video of how the F1 circus travels from one race to another, packing shipping into the aircraft and then the reverse at their destination.

 

[Limejuice]

Safety car #3.

I wonder if the driver is paid by the lap.

 

[Ax^]

Did you see the segment they did on that yesterday?

 

[weltweit]

Did you see the segment they did on that yesterday?

No I didn't watch yesterday. What did they show?

Looking at the first lap incident from head-on view, Max moved right and Vettel moved left.

 

[Ax^]

max did have a kimi to his left

max did have a kimi to his left

Only because he moved right, Kimi wouldn't have had room had Max gone straight. I'm not fan of Vettel, in fact I can't stand him, but I think racing incident is what it will be called. To be honest I'd love to be able to blame Vettel, but can't see it, he left lots of room and would not have been able to see behind him because of the spray so wouldn't have seen Kimi.

 

[weltweit]

.. I'm not fan of Vettel, in fact I can't stand him,

Why? he seems harmless enough to me?
