2016 Chinese Grand Prix - Shanghai, Apr 15 - 17

[F1NAC]

Grand Chelem for Rosberg?

[krisfx]

The stupid Russian really needs a penalty, I'm so sick of him!

It's okay, he'll be replaced by Verstappen next year

mclaren strategy boys must start search for new job

Alonso and Button seem to be performing above some people's expectations. I'm very impressed with both and hoping for some points. The standards are (as usual for this track (completely empty except for the people strategically coralled into the granstands near the start / finish!

Until now I think they've only been in good positions because of difference in strategies. Only at the end of the race we'll be able to tell their true performance. All I've seen so far is them being overtaken.

The fact that Ricciardo overtook Bottas on the back straight and Lewis didn't goes as proof of Renault's improvement.

Nice. The Bulls are just insane on the brakes. Would have been easy P2 for Riccardo.

Lewis might have to save fuel he's been running hard, I really wish he would've started on pit lane with the mediums

[Bomber_Pilot]

Kimi is flying this year.

On pace this would be ros, ric/rai, vet. Pretty much qualifying reaffirmed.

He has massive floor damage, thanks to the accidents caused by the idiot Russians crazy driving.

[Shrieker]

It wasn't his fault that Hamilton had to start dead last, but let's face it, he's not good at risk management. Had he started from the pits, he'd be around 10th after the safety car, and with no damage to the car would've finished the race in 2nd easy.

That was a bit bonkers. If Vettel hadn't "moved" Kimi out of the way, Kvyat would probably put all three out of the race.

[gandharva]

Lol, why is everyone bashing Kvyat? Kimi made an error on the brakes and opened the gap.

- Massa was right, a lot of fake overtakes, hard to read
- told you in Bahrain Red Bull was v. impressive, I want my points
- Ferrari almost won another race - they're second that's surely "almost", BTW what happened to their magic clutch???

- gutsy drive against the odds by Vettel, would have been a perfect one except for rubbish qualifying, rubbish start and collision, another collision (suicidal move on Bottas) and everything else. Thankfully with no competition (Kvyat) and close-to-best car you don't need good driving, you get half of teams' prize money anyway.

Nope its proof that hamilton had a damaged car
