Grosjean will never say, "Sorry, It's my fault". His excuses are disappointing.

Indeed. It started when he took too much curb. But hey let's blame the car. Unless there actually was a mechanical failure.

Its weird to see a bigger gap with super softs rather with softs, taking into account that Mercedes is stronger with harder compounds.

I wonder who crashed more at "a driver's corner" during a season. Grosjean or Maldonado?

On RTL Toto said something about overheating tires in their long run pace in FP3, so it probably wont be smooth sailing. Anyone here watch FP3 or look at the data?
Not for nothing, Rosberg's Championship is the only thing that lends credibility to Hamilton's recent success. Otherwise, he'd just be the guy who's had the best car. — bhall II

I wonder how much yesterday affected Ferrari (if at all did) regarding setup wise. Ferrari seems to make big step from friday to saturday. But nevertheless gap is too big for possibility of pole today.

I hope that RB wont step between Vettel and Hamilton. Just want to watch those 2 hunting each other
