I doubt Hamilton gonna be on podium today. He looks very slow considering the car he have. And remember that Rosberg won what the last 5 GP last year (so the 5 GP coming up now) ? Not looking too promising for Lewis.

It was only 3 races last season and they came after he'd won the title, things will be different with it still on the line.

Oh yeah my bad, actually he got the last 5 poles. Thanks.
 
Lewis looks like he got his hands full getting the car around.
 
Might be the race that put a gap between the two drivers, could be the deciding race for the wdc. Lewis is loosing lots of points without any reason (yet?). I don't get why Mercedes runs on yellow tho, because they didn't last long and are slower. Weird.
 
I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think Haas should keep Gutierrez. He's performed well, although his personality leaves something to be desired. Both drivers have been surprisingly critical of the team in public. It's a first year team! Their expectations seem a little high.

It's only 11 points as of now with six races to go. Let's not get carried away.
 
What's plan B though? actually drive fast?

I'm not but in a championship where you usually finish 1-2 loosing 13 pts to your teammate could be a harder blow to Lewis than you think at this point of the season. Of course we all remember 2008 but yeah.
 
Wait what? shouldn't these soft tyres last to the end?
 
Well that was a good job from Mercedes.

You gain 7 points in a 1-2 over your team mate. Two of those and Hamilton is back ahead.
 
Management really seems to be the bane of Hamilton and something Rosberg does very well.
 
Plan B is a stroke of genius, Nico is in trouble here.

Nico is staying out probably or Mercedes just gave the race to Ricciardo.

Edit: Nico gonna be on trouble if Ricciardo tire hold up after he caught up all that time,
 
I think RIC will lose the grip of his tyres before he catches him.
 
COME ON RICCIIIIII!!!
 
I wonder if RBR would've made that pitstop if Mercedes and Ferrari stayed out.

He had to stay out, question is when will Dan's tyres starts to fall. But Mercedes with a blunder there.
 
Rosberg has 19 laps on tires that should max at 18 laps. And they're old, but there's a bit less fuel weight. But with 8 laps to go it's up to Ricciardo to drive fast

No they could have pitted him same time as Ricciardo the lap after Hamilton and it would have been fine.
 
Ricciardo's can go 23 laps and he's only gone 3 so far.
 
He can go 23 laps but not at the pace he have now.
 
And that's if they were the new ones, He started the race with 2 sets of new, 1 set of used Super Soft
 
Kimi catching Lewis.
