sidrick Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Come on Grosjean! I see Vettel's RB is back on form... The course does seem to favour the red bulls, unlike the McLaren! Bit of an iffy release there by Ferarri. Rosberg is having a mare. Top work from the McLaren pit crew stopping Hamilton leaving until the wheel was back on properly. Identical to what happened to MSC in the last race but they released him. Raikonen having a stormer, but he's too dangerous, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TC-DNB Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 MSC is clearly loving this. Some lovely moves. No idea how Massa avoided tagging Raikonen there! Best season I've seen for many years. Agree. Want to see a replay of Rosberg/Hamilton. Great drive from Grosjean/Kimi so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looked like they dropped the rear end before they'd finished IMO. Ooh, they've done it again. Was loving the rallycross move past Rosberg.

sidrick Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Rosberg's going to get fcuked. Wouldn't be surprised if he was disqualified after the race (not that I agree with that). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caled Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Depends on the wording of the rules, I suppose. I guess thats why they haven't already made a judgement. Is the Rosberg/Hamilton incident being investigated after the race? I thought it just said it was under investigation, as opposed to the Rosberg/Alonso incident.

Craig855S Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 Rosbergs swipes across the front of Alonso and worse so Hamilton needed a punishment which never came, that's incredibly dangerous behaviour, had the track edges have been grass something definately would have been done because there would have been a more noticeable result (collision/spin/even just hamilton heavy braking would have had the stewards up in arms because it would have come across as an attempt to smash lewis off the track) At least MSC gently eased over towards rubens last year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still dangerous though. Reckon he'll get a penalty/slap on the wrist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig855S Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 They've said no further action....so no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidrick Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 After learning Rosberg would not be punished, Alonso wrote on Twitter: "I think you are going to have fun in future races! You can defend position as you want and you can overtake outside the track! Enjoy! ))" lol. Having seen them again, I think the Rosberg Hamilton incident was fair enough, Lewis chose to try a bit of off-roading. The Alonso Rosberg incident I think Rosberg is completely in the wrong and should have been punished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig855S Posted April 23, 2012 Author Share Posted April 23, 2012 Ive watched them both back on youtube a lot and the hamilton one isnt as bad as it looked at the time, there was no chance of rosberg hitting the side of hamilton as lewis was still behind his as rosberg took the carwidth away from the edge of the track, however its the same with alonso, just alonso chose not to make the pass off the track, on a track with grass or a barrier at the side either rosberg would have got a penalty or Hamilton/Alonso would have went to the left when Rosberg began his move. What also annoys me is that Rosberg returns to the racing line after causing alonso to back out of it, when you choose to go defensive to stay that line until the next apex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidrick Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 What a nonsense of a qualifying. How anyone can disagree with what MSC has been saying about the tyres having too much influence is beyond me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig855S Posted May 13, 2012 Author Share Posted May 13, 2012 Having only got the first 2/3rds of quali I never saw Lewis's Q3 laps or him stopping on track but ive heard he was disqualified. Mclaren are doing my fcuking head in with their ineptitude. If theyre not messing up wheel changes theyre underfuelling the car, do they want to lose on purpose??
