Can't see the Mercs losing this from here, Ricciardo chasing Massa and the soon to be Grosjean Express are the main stories left I think, and the Toro Rosso battle.
 
Was Alonso thrown out of the car? there is no cockpit.
 
Kimi Raikkonen retires in a flaming Ferrari.

Verstappen would fit in well here in Australia with his colourful way of expressing his opinions.
 
Race far from over, seb might get lewis I think.
 
Gutierrez somewhat dodging the question asked to him by Will Buxton of "what happened out there".
 
Vettel just starting to catch Hamilton, less than 10 to go....

Tubs don't split like that. They're tested to speeds far beyond what they can achieve in a race.
 
Vettel will catch but I have a hard time seeing him pass, and running the softs, I feel he'll run into the same issues others did and that's washout and quicker tire wear.
 
Now NBC, don't you dare pull a fox and go to commercial.
 
Sainz is my new favorite driver, keeping tweaking the mental midget behind you and he will snap.:lol:
 
What's the difference between the white-letter-on-black-background medium tire graphic and the black-letter-on-white-background one?

It's everywhere. If you haven't seen said thoughts, you probably haven't seen many motorsport safety discussions on the internet.

I've seen plenty of acrimony over potential new safety measures, but I just can't recall seeing any calls for removing safety devices/rules/procedures. No I don't follow that many motorsport forums apart from GTPlanet's because I don't know of anywhere else that isn't a bit of a cesspit :p

Bo
It is indeed, but you seem to be missing my point entirely.

Nah I knew what your point was, I just didn't see its relevance to this accident so I thought I'd be a bit cheeky :p But I completely agree further safety should always be strived for, as long as it's done properly of course.

One was a new tire when put on the car, the other was a used tire.. I'm not sure which one is which though.
