[quote="kals"][quote="Fabs"][quote="kals"][quote="gkmotorsport"]As a slight follow-up, apparently Hamilton blamed the cars for his inability to pass Nico, and also suggested that the team was at fault for not letting him try a different strategy. I'm not convinced. I think Nico just had the edge again today.


Not just a comment on overtaking by Lewis but also by Vettel[/quote]
If only they could design the cars :([/quote]

Lewis' comment was pretty much "cars are too aero dependent but no-one will listen to us"[/quote]
Sounds like most teams don't care as the 2017 designs won't reduce the aero importance...[/quote]

There was a picture circulating on Friday of a Mercedes in 2017 aero. Needless to say facepalm suits...

I think the recent form is because Lewis, now championship has been won, is partying and maybe unfocused and Nico is still performing at the consistant level he always has, which is a step behind on form Lewis but seems superior to "cba, already won the title" Lewis.

Meh, oh well macau is on next week. Should be fun.

I had a lot of fun today.

And I've just read this news: Interlagos has set the public record this year, almost 140.000 people!

If you consider Formula One is losing TV ratings worldwide (in Brazil too) and Brazilian GP had its stands 100% packed, you can imagine how brazilians love racing. No matter If Drivers championship is decided, we like racing!

New Viry shitbox still as much of a shitbox as the old one - perhaps even more so.

And as it turns out, the new shitbox wasn't exactly the new shitbox Viry had been promising... confused much?

You would have thought they would have told Daniel before he drove it.

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.

A sensible plan, but no. F1 doesn't do sensible.

Over the weekend I was going to make a sarcastic comment suggesting Renault hadn't given Red Bull the upgraded engine as a payback for mistreatment. Turns out I wouldn't have been far off.

Randomness: after the first laps I started playing the Jurassic World Lego videogame in co-op with my girlfriend, and just checking the standings here and there.

We were both jumping around as raptors chasing around an escaped pig. That was taster than anything that happened on-track that day.

I'm pretty sure that at the stands was way better than on TV

for the first time brazilian GP broadcast wasn't ratings leader

No doubt. You can have the worst race of the schedule still you gonna laugh a lot in the Reta Oposta stands. The craziest spot to watch a race in Interlagos.

Looks like you had already watched a F1 race in Interlagos from the Reta Oposta sector, haven't you? You migh know what I'm talking about....craziest crowd ever that you won't find anywhere else in the World. Those folks start drinking beer from 7 am and then when race is on they are already in a state of humor you can't imagine.

A race in which Mercedes cars lead 100% of the laps, in Reta Oposta sector - even Will Stevens becomes a spectacle.

yep, I was there at G grandstands in 2008. You can have a great view for a smaller price

there was some guys with banners telling Barrichello to crash on Hamilton so Massa could win easier haha
