So Nico by 2 tenths, Hamilton second again. Let's see if Nico can cut it this time and take the win.

That's four in a row for Rosberg, another fairy tale theory put to bed? Button must be devastated.

Rosberg has his Q mojo back, i wonder what happened?
Sparks and maybe bodywork to fly in T1. https://twitter.com/f1fanatic_co_uk/sta ... 4078375937 Lots of slow corners so Ferrari is a lot closer.

Thanks for the heads up. To avoid all confusion here is a little picture i've taken during pitstop analysis just for you to scurry away and have a good dig into the metadata to see if it really is from Mexico.

Let me know when you realise it is. I'll accept your apology...

You seem to be on the wrong side of the barrier, among all the regular folk
When I'm in the pit lane taking photo's, I'm on the other side of the rope "notice the fuel covers"

These photos are from 2004 and are past there best by sell date so I don't mind posting them

Reckoner you may have gotten off on the wrong foot with the forum, but if you keep sticking it out it's going to get run over
This a better side of the barrier for you??

I'm not going to bother getting into a pissing match with you
I would have thought that showing you photo's I took over 10 years ago, you'd have realized that there are members on this forum that have been doing it a lot longer then just the last 2 races, And with out the need to belittle those that aren't fortunate or lucky enough to get into the F1 paddock

Wouldn't be too happy about being spoken to like that if I were Nico. I guess the point was that FI wanted to ensure they weren't seen to be getting in the way - that there wasn't any evidence of being on a warm up - but seemed a bit overly aggressive to me.

To change the subject Sergio really is getting a great ovation by the Fans. Also I read the tickets told out in minutes and also that they ended up adding temporary seating this grand prix is deffinetly a gp with a great crowd.

Mercs and Ferrari very fast through speed traps in all 3 sectors. Quite crazy how good RBR are considering that deficit in power/speed.

I have a feeling Rosberg tyres wont last too long. His setup seems very much for qualifying with and with less downforce.
Lewis may just hunt him down in the last stint again and overtake him like what usually happened in 2014.
Nico seems to be driven by anger this weekend though, and it's working for him.
For Sure!!

Where do you see this less downforce, for qualifying, tyre destroying set up? All max speeds identical and similar sector times, +- ~0,05 first/third. Speed trap 1,8 km difference but at different times (start, end). What does usually mean? As if going back to '14 and not the current season for help wasn't weird enough.

Prediction: with current starts trend and poor refereeing safety car after first lap =P~ . Clean side, long straight and dirty driving in front - good position for Vettel.

I guess you're right. Hamilton may have compromised his qualifying a bit to have a better race setup.

Hamilton seems to be a bit too relaxed. Not only about his second place but also in his approach to qualifying, eg not going out again in Q1. It just didn't feel like he was on the limit.

Hamilton mentioned after qualifying that the balance of the two cars were setup different. Be interesting to see what difference that makes today in the race, if any.

Could we see a new record for top speed in a formula one race?
