I understand Red Bull pitting Max but I''m not sure Ferrari were right to pit Vettel

He had tract position in 2nd place and could have stayed there

 

[Ax^]

give us a replay who hit who

 

[Ax^]

harsh for Ericsson


Sainz also for driver of the day

new car new team

 

[Ax^]

do we all hope for another few years of red bull dominance...

i like Max


but the red bull team are a shower of cunts

 

[Limejuice]

Max!!

 

[spitfire]

go max.

 

[Ax^]

Fair play Max

 

[Badgers]

Great stuff By Max got my driver of the day vote.

Solid drive by Hamilton. He has been imperious the second half of this season and more than deserves the title

 

[spitfire]

omfg penalty for Max.

 

[Limejuice]

Max robbed!

So Mercedes are constructors champions again.

Max played a blinder but could loose that position.

Sainz Driver of the day for me he got the very best out of that Renault

Kimi just stood there in the wind-down room with a smile on his face and said nothing

 

[spitfire]

If he wins i wonder will Lewis take a knee during the British anthem?

Ah well.

The stewards seem to be making decisions on things really quickly at this race.

Usain Bolt is about 8 feet tall.

Good to see James Allison on the podium for Mercedes

Not much love for Mika Salo on Twitter right now

 

[Bungle73]

Apparently, after Kimi was overtaken by Max, he slowed right down, and if he'd slowed just a tiny bit more then Max would have still been ahead in the classifications, even with the penalty.

As soon as the cars crossed the finish line I went and got into my bath confident that it was Hamilton 1, Vettel 2 and Verstappen 3 ...

It was only this morning that I learned of the demotion.

I would love to see that VT again, did the whole of Max's car leave the track?

Yes. Open and shut case.

Well, it's the antepenultimate Grand Prix of the season this weekend. How the seasons fly by, innit?

It's a civilised schedule again with, as far as I know, no extra wobbles from the telly folks trying to shoo people into a Justin Timberwolf soiree.

The UK times are:

Fri 27 Oct
FP1- 16.00
FP2 - 20.00

Sat 28 Oct
FP3 - 16.00
Qual - 19.00

Sun 29 Oct
Race - 19.00

The times take account clocks going back on Sunday at 2 am here in Blighty. BST evaporates and GMT is the last time zone left standing. So the race on Sunday is 19.00 GMT.

I'd also like to point out that the clock in my car will be showing the correct time, after its six month excursion into the future. It means that calculating journey and arrival times while I drive won't be like sight-reading music and transposing it for a B-flat clarinet on the fly. So that's nice, then.

The clock in the car, bedside alarm clock, windy alarm clock, watch, phone - at least the computer does it automatically!
