This is going to be interesting - Hamilton with 2 sprints to the end!

Grim.

Renault quality right there

Autosport

Holy god a fire

Mike Litoris

Safety car?

T-Bird

Safety car would be nice :P

Safety car??

What is the point of Sutil?


A safety car would screw Hamilton.

Mike Litoris

Not now!

I don't agree

Not "screw" as in be unfair, but it would've left him needing another stop and having a lot of the field to overtake again.

Bothas will pit again I'd say, don't think those tyres will last.

Mike Litoris

At that pace Hamilton could make another pit stop.

Ghost Train

Wonder will Hamilton make his tyres last

He's faster than Alonso right now. Dunno if that means the tyres are alright or if he's pushing so he can make a stop then overtake Alonso.

Arthur Beesley

Nice Guttierez pass on Alonso...

Autosport

Alonso overtaking by a sauber :O Ricarrdo and Button having a nice race

Mike Litoris

Hamilton better not go Kamikaze on Bottas.

Mike Litoris

Alonso/Riciardo great racing!!

Autosport

Alonso and Ricarrdo what racing

dloob

That Aussie sure is the real deal.

Autosport

Hammy and Bottas

Arthur Beesley

Keep up the good work Ricciardo.

Mike Litoris

I reckon Bottas will do it. Hamiltons left front looks wrecked.

Autosport

Alonso and Ricarrdo are at it again

Mike Litoris

Good stuff Alonso. Holy holy shít that's some racing.

Hamilton may not get another chance if Bottas gets into DRS behind the backmarkers.

Autosport

I must say this has been a great race

Must say I don't get why they had such a short stint with Hamilton before this stint, I thought they would have tried to keep them roughly level. If they were covering off a safety car then I thought soft would've been better for a longish last stint.

Mostly thanks to Riciardo, Hamilton and Alonso.

Schwiiing

Come on Bottas!!

Autosport

Rosberg had it easy this race

Mike Litoris

Great great race!

ItsChecoTime

Pity there was no rain or safety car near the end but a great race with some great battles

Watched all the support races and they were throwing safety cars out for all sorts of reasons. Yet a car is stuck out on the main straight and they don't put one out. Hmm seems like the organisers want a German driver to win.

Those f**kin manky Santander trophies make an appearance again.

Autosport

Lewis could smile as I'm sure Alonso/Ricarrdo would be happy to be on the podium

His tyres certainly deserve credit.

Why is the German celeb interviewing the German driver in front of the German crowd at the German grand prix in English?

Larbre34

English is the media language of the world. Lucky for us.

One podium all season, despite two ex-world champion drivers? Yeah, something not right there...I suppose it's the drivers fault though yeah?

Good race, safety car or rain near the end would have shook things up nicely. Some good driving from Hamilton, the Button incident aside (though Button did look like he was leaving a ton of room, only to close the door). Alonso & Ricciardo battles were pure class.

Cars evolve over a season with a constant stream if updates. and their characteristics suit different circuits. Ferrari probably has the largest budget for development.

Are you saying the Ferrari car was crap at this race?

That doesn't change the fact that the team is under-performing. Enda Kenny is the 3rd highest paid politician in the EU...sometimes you don't get what you pay for.

By championship winning standards (ie how the judge themselves), they're a long way off where they want to be. So, yes, I am

The time gap to the Mercs is pretty much as big as it's been all season.
