Lewis Hamilton had a race to forget at Singapore, where after a difficult qualifying session for the entire Mercedes team, he encountered a power unit issue that forced him into retirement halfway into the race.
What's the point mate for such extreme sandbagging?

Being on another team, you must think "what are they doing different then we?" If they're not fast enough here (while you are), but dominate on other tracks...Shrieker wrote:What's wrong with mercedes ?
The new tire pressure specifications are preventing merc from turning their tires on. Hopefully it's just an issue with getting them up to temp, and not keeping them from overheating.AnthonyG wrote:How?dans79 wrote:Stupid crap Pirelli tires.......

This is the FIA you're talking about....the people who let Merc off last time out, then 'verified' this weekend that they had been in the wrong but won't be let off now..Shrieker wrote:That's pretty much guaranteed not to happen after the drama at Monza...Jonnycraig wrote:

They are already heating up the tyres. They just can't stop them overheating. As we've seen this season, they're very average in dirty air so will need to rely on their usual 'quali mode undercut' to make up places if they can't grab pole.ringo wrote:Smells to me like ferrari and fia engineered these anti merc tyre pressures. Would love to see how this pans out for the rest of the season.
