I don't think it's necessarily about power, though. Higher fuel flow cools the combustion chambers of the engine. I imagine that's pretty handy for a PU with overheating problems.

Again, I would never suggest RedBull would deliberately infringe direct requests of the stewards, there must be some mistake if they are exceeding the fuel flow, and I'm sure they'll correct it. =P~

Welp, so much for my bold prediction about Mercedes perhaps not getting a clean getaway...

To be honest, I say that was 100% Kimi's fault. Kimi just misjudged how far ahead he was.

This is deja vu. Just change the Mercedes and Redbull around and this is the same order as last year haha. Even looks the same down the straight.

"Ok Lewis, Its Hammertime!!" - Peter Bonnington

"Fresh tires, 15 laps. What do you think Lewis Hamilton is going to do?" - Martin Brundle

It's not quite over yet. Rain, Merc potential tire degradation (tyre for the weirdos) issues, Red Bull's Red Bulliness, etc.

Anyone got any good jokes to get us through this period of fuel-saving?
