2012 Chinese Grand Prix

[SuperDiscoDaz]

The amount of marbles on track already could easily cause someone to lose points today.

Never thought a Schumacher not named Ralf would be the leader of a train around the track,

 

[Jiggins]

Webber in for an early pit. Interesting.

 

[Alex p.]

Man Rosberg is flying almost 5 seconds lead infront of Schumi...

Never thought a Schumacher not named Ralf would be the leader of a train around the track,

Lol.

 

[dudedo]

Whoops, Schumi is on trouble. Tyre degrade kicks in for him i guess.

I wouldn't be surprised if the team told him to let Rosberg get a good lead. But who knows?

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

I thought Perez would be fast enough to get Kamui by now, especially after that start.

Spoke to soon Kamui is now in.

 

[Liquid]

Rosberg is inching out a good gap. Schumacher could be put under tremendous pressure soon.

 

[niky]

Is Schumacher backing up the field to give Nico space? Certainly looks like it.

Webber now setting fastest laps on the prime... Vettel goes in for primes. Look for more people to do early pits to get onto the primes.

EDIT: Hammy and Kimi in. Hammy still on option tires... passes Kimi in the pits! Webber on Kimi now!!! Waaaaah!!!! What a battle!!!

I hadn't noticed prior to this morning that turn 13 is akin to an oval track. The cars are at quite a considerable angle on the exit.

 

[RKanharn]

Hulkenburg and Vettel in the pits.

 

[cgr-10]

Raikkonen and Hamilton box.

EDIT: Hamilton gets ahead, great work from McLaren.

 

[ghskilla]

Raikkonen and Hamilton in the pits.

 

[Liquid]

Pit crew battle!

 

[Touring Mars]

I thought Perez would be fast enough to get Kamui by now, especially after that start.

eh? Perez was infront of Kamui on the first lap...

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Hamilton doing it like a boss

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

eh? Perez was infront of Kamui on the first lap...

No he wasn't...Perez only got ahead of his team mate virtue pit stops.

 

[Lizard]

Epic stuff from Kimi.

 

[cgr-10]

No he wasn't...Perez only got ahead of his team mate virtue pit stops.

I'm pretty sure he got ahead on the first lap?

 

[niky]

What a fantastic battle! Webber going at it like gangbusters... stuck to Hamilton's tail like a leech as they go around Vergne... who wisely decides to keep out of the way of these faster cars... despite racing for position.

Replay of pit stops... Lewis had a legitimate lead over Kimi in the pits.

Strange that he's gambling on the softs... those tires are going to die quick quick...

 

[ZEROX]

I wouldn't be surprised if the team told him to let Rosberg get a good lead. But who knows?

Schumi play 'no.2'? Seems legit.

 

[Jiggins]

Unfortunate for kimi lol

 

[Lizard]

McLaren doing their classic do or die pit stratergy.

 

[RKanharn]

Button in the pits as Raikkonen is trying to keep up with Webber and Hamilton.

 

[Touring Mars]

No he wasn't...Perez only got ahead of his team mate virtue pit stops.

Obviously you weren't paying enough attention to the race!

 

[ghskilla]

Schumi in the pits!

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

I'm pretty sure he got ahead on the first lap?

No, I just was listening to Barsha and he even said great jump from Perez to 6th behind his team mate. Kamui stopped falling back after Hamilton.

Obviously you weren't paying enough attention to the race!

Or you're wrong.

 

[Liquid]

Schumacher loses out. Behind Hamilton at least.

Edit: And he's out!

 

[Lizard]

What was the Merc mechanic slapping the ground for?

 

[Alex p.]

Oh God no Schumacher is out!

 

[RKanharn]

Schumacher is OUT!
