Haha, "how do you stop your drivers from tangling with each other?" -Crofty

"Sell them to a worse team? There are only 3 teams that are better" - Force India.

And Max has another DNF. I don't like the guy, but this is stupid.
 
That is BS for Max! Deserves a better car and team.

Verstappen out at La Source.

Bingo. Suffered a failure going through La Source.
Didn't say what lap it would be. ;)

Damn, he has Jean Alesi and Chris Amon levels of luck at the moment.
 
That Renault engine seems even less reliable than the Honda engine...

Only person to suffer this bad with mechanics is Max, and not all the DNF were engine related.

Four mech failures and two damage retirements, I think.

Something like that.

BHR- Brake Failure
SPAIN - Collision
CANADA - Electrical fault/failure
AZERBAIJAN - Oil pressure issue
AUSTRIA - Collision
BELGIUM - ???
 
Very very close gap betweem HAM and RAI. Great move.
 
10 second stop and go for Kimi, failing to slow under yellow.

And Vettel is fast on the yellow tyres!
 
And now Kimi gets a penalty for not slowing under double yellows.

Alonso: "No more radio for the rest of the race." :(
 
Man, Vettel is flying.

Missed that one while all focus was on Max' engine failure. Also Kimi not happy....but double yellow is double yellow.
 
At first it was amusing but I wish Alonso would just stop whining. He's not helping his case either.
 
That was a really dumb move and answer by Kimi.
 
Ricciardo on the podium again? Would be great for the team and Daniel. Extra homework for the engineering team. Why is Daniels car more reliable?


I thought Alonso turned off his radio. He is really frustrated. We can understand that just like Max....
 
Somebody needs to open a mic to Alonso and just eat potato chips for 10 minutes.

I'm going to say the difference in crews working on the cars.

Isn't that what brought Rosberg the reliability to win his wdc, by swapping crews with Hamilton?

He's slower. :D

But seriously, driving style could be part of it.

Much in the same way Hamilton always seems to have more mechanical issues than drivers like Button or Rosberg, Max just might be harder on his equipment than Ricciardo.

-

Either that, or it's plain and simple bad luck.
 
ALO out.... I would say walk to Max and grab a Belgian beer together.
 
And that was it for Alonso.
