Hopefully this is the start of the Mercedes implosion and they start taking each other out at the first corner.

Rosberg had a massive lead in the Championship over Hamilton not so long ago and yet again he has bottled it when Lewis has turned to screw. Going to be title number 4 for Lewis soon.

[Oberon]

Yup, pretty clear who was in the wrong with this one.

I've no idea what he was up to really as there was nowhere for Hamilton to go really

Hamilton would have been able to turn inside Rosberg and accelerate out quicker, the game was up for Rosberg with his shot tyres and "brake problems".

I think the difference between the two is Hamilton would have found a way to keep Rosberg fully behind him at that corner, whether he would hold on for the rest of the lap is another point.

haha Mansell warned everyone that he and the Stewards would be super harsh on any drivers straying completely over the white lines on that corner.

So wouldn't you know it, the one driver to fall foul of it and have his Poll position time deleted was Hamilton.

Leaving him to come out with just one flying lap remaining to regain poll from Rosberg.

Which he did, like a Champion.

Waits for Chazza's sarcastic remark.

Mansell was pretty disgraceful there pulled nobody else up on it other than Lewis. Blames him for the crash last weekend as well, blind angry spot towards Hamilton by the looks of it

Bit unfair to be honest but at least it makes it a race tomorrow as it was in danger of becoming another one where Hamilton drives off into the distance.

Edit - ah bollocks I thought he had been pushed down the grid the little Twerp.

Hopefully it rains as well.

Good chance of first corner carnage tomorrow. Lewis hasn't exactly got off the line well all season

From hope to despair to anger in just 4 lines of text.

Safety car start ffs

Safety car start ffs

It's a joke. They are drivers at the top of their game, let them race ffs and handle what the track throws at them.

[Daniel 7]

Good news for Lewis :/

[Leyton388]

This is ridiculous and one of the reasons why F1 is becoming less and less appealing to me. It won't be long until safety cars are out unless it's bone dry.

[Chazza]

Would have been funny if he'd hit the safety car.

10 cars in I counted there
