I think you mean drivers... they don't fly planes.zack! wrote:Well, ROS also was put in same condition than HAM previously.
BTW, we are far from pilot racing, without pitlane control on technical settings, the engine would fails or tire explode, pilots even wait signal to change gear speed.

Well as far as i remember F1 drivers are also called pilots. I guess the cars just go so slow that driver is more appropriate.J0rd4n wrote:I think you mean drivers... they don't fly planes.zack! wrote:Well, ROS also was put in same condition than HAM previously.

fixing the results? how exactly? Rosberg was in control of the race and the team decided to be safe and pit both cars for new tires just in case... who did it benefit? neither driver...both drivers questioned pitting again because they both thought they could go the distance......dans79 wrote:That's not racing then, it's some egalitarian BS or fixing the results, take your pick.zack! wrote:Was the same for ROS, actually this call was for equity.MercedesAMGSpy wrote:Well let's hope that we actually have a race tomorrow and not ''Lewis you have to pit now, tyres not safe blablabla''.
I have never seen an F1 driver referred to as a pilot before. That's news to me. In the dictionary it's down as "a person who operates the flying controls of an aircraft"ringo wrote:Well as far as i remember F1 drivers are also called pilots.

As for Qualy, Hamilton i believe is simply relaxed and not in the same level of focus as he was when driving for the championship. Alonso is in a similar state of mind. He admits he will refresh his mind and get back on a high level when the car is competitive. I'm really not surprised Rosberg is doing so well right now, as Hamilton has nothing more to work on but maybe some minor details for 2016.
Today Rosrberg was inch perfect, he will continue to do that as long as nothing matters any more. It will be back to the same thing when next season starts i feel.

In France we can pilot planes and cars. But we used to to do weird things !That's possibly because you don't speak French, Italian, Russian or Spanish, or haven't engaged in an F1 conversation in any of these languages (at least!). I'd cut him some slack in that, especially when you perfectly understood what he meant. Some of the mistakes one sees over here are infinitely worse, such as mixing up loose and lose, or brake and break, and do not even mention pure grammatical mistakes with pronouns, verbs and so on.J0rd4n wrote: I have never seen an F1 driver referred to as a pilot before.

Just joking. Not being allowed to do another strategy has nothing to do with ''racing''. It's a farce, especially when you are telling the world every time on tv with a big smile how happy we have to be with Mercedes allowing their drivers to race.giantfan10 wrote:fixing the results? how exactly?

now if one car was pitted and the other was not you would have a case for egalitarian BS... what you actually had was a smart call by mercedes with a pit stop lead in hand... all that happened was Hamilton figured out if he didnt stop that was his only chance to win the race so he resisted and got smacked down by his engineer .
case closed.
