Yup, real shame.

All the dicking about with the rules certainly isn't helping the sport either.

Wasn't I right there? That was a dull procession. Let's just hope that Rosberg's headstart can kick some life into F1 - this race was ruined by Vettel's engine blow on the warm up lap and Bottas walloping Lewis. The rest was pretty dull, effectively a one corner race for the win.

There wasn't much else to comment on really, van Doorne did ok getting his point. Williams look a shambles and Hulkenberg might just have retired from competitive racing in plain sight. Echoes of Ballack to Chelsea!

Haas doing well though- good to see from a new team

I ****ing hate how smug Rosberg is when he's been gifted a race win

[Daniel 7]

You can see why all the old school manufacturers are fed up about Haas though - there they are spending money trying to do it themselves, and Haas just get other people to do it for them

Yeah, that's what winds me up most about Rosberg. The mask always slips when he's taken a beating though.

Hamilton starts at the back of the grid due to a penalty, his car is a cronk.

tbh, and not related to the above at all, but i wonder whether it would be preferable to Merc if Rosberg won it this time, how many teams have had two different drivers become World Champion in consecutive seasons while being in the team at the same time ?

[Vermilion]

Rosberg! ;pffft:

Ricciardo!

Raikenen!

Vettel! :meh:

Hamilton

Could be almost a 50 point lead for Roseberg if Hamilton fails to score.

But, if Hamiltons car behaves from then on respective to Rosbergs, i'd still have my money on him.

[Chazza]

Yeah he will come back as he is a good driver and the car is streets ahead of the others.

Might be worth having a look at the odds after tomorrow.

[Vermilion]

Crazy to think in the early days that the drivers would be sat in the car during a pit stop, having a fag, as the pit crew wearing flat caps and cotton overalls poured in fuel from a can.
