Toro Rosso and Red Bull are the tits of the weekend. Why shouldn't they let their drivers go out? Any specific reason for that?

It was wet in the final sector on the original laps so I guess thats how they gained so much time on the last laps. Amazing! Great qualy!

Wonder who made the call to keep Ricciardo in on the final run?

Think Button's going to be pretty shocked to end up in 3rd

Same reason Lewis backed off; they thought it wasn't possible to improve.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

So rather give up immediately than trying? Thats retarded. Toro Rosso especially screwed their drivers who could have drove up there.

Hamilton backed off because he felt the track was slower.

Maybe it is, but that's their choice.

Being honest, I find it amazing that S3 alone gave almost 3 seconds back compared to the first runs.

The question is whether Lewis gave up or the team told him to abandon the lap. I'm guessing the former.

Lewis looked like he was hardly trying before Rosberg came past him

Have to say, Nico was REALLY lucky to get that lap in as the lights went red just after he started his laps. Almost looked as if Lewis was doing an Alonso from Hungary 07 there to try to stop Nico from getting a lap in.

I wouldn't be surprised if that was his original intention.

Lauda confirmed it was Hamilton's decision.

Does anybody have a link to a Sky Sports F1 Stream? My ISP is being weird, and I'd like to see GP3, GP2 and F1 rerun!
