13:35 here! Just settling in for the afternoon. Perfect.
Perfect for here. Watch the race, hit the yard, back in to watch Indy cars in Wisconsin....road race so might be interesting. Just wish that Comcast NBCSN would get their tv schedule right. According to them the pre race was at 0800 and race start at 0830. Yeah, I know that F1 never starts a race on the half hour. Could be interesting, Hamilton had a bit of a shunt on the warm up lap..no damage just didn't make the turn. Go Kiimi, Go Fernando! Cheers

Fernando has so many penalties he's probably starting in Wisconsin!

A safety car at some point will spice things up. And given the amount of shunts we've already seen, it seems likely.

He'd probably be better off starting in WI. Heck, he'd certainly have a better chance of winning.

Winning? Finishing would do!

Think it's Lewis's to loose. Interesting to see if Max can do anything as he showed good pace at times. Expect to see Kimi get team orders at some point to let Vettel past.
We'll soon see.

We are talking about F1 drivers, didn't you know :)
BTW, after the replay, actually both Hamilton and Vetel should be banned from the race.
Complete morons :eek:

Now a red flag. Starting to wish it was just highlights this week!

On the Hamilton/Vettel incident I can't believe Vettel won't get a penalty.
Pulled alongside and then drove into the side of him. Complete road rage incident.

Lewis clearly hit the breaks but Vettel should get a severe penalty for his behavior. That is completely unacceptable.

Either way, both of these guys should be penalized off the podium.

He did everything to ruin the race. Bit OK, I get it, you are from UK :)

If F1 was a sport and not just entertainment both would get a black flag....
Agree both WC's will get kinder treatment than if we were talking about a couple of rookies. However the commentary team all agree with me.

Watch again. Constant speed. Not breaking.

Under investigation so we will see.
