HAMILTON IS OFF INTO THE WALL IN Q1!!!
He'll make it into Q2 but his qualifying session is OVER! |

Looks like the braking system that screwed up again
He'll start around 16th |

I just tuned in....how does he make it to Q2 if he crashes out? Did he put down a very fast lap? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Looking very good for Bottas right now. Didn't need Supersofts for his time.

Sky is showing left rear completely locked up on Hamilton's crash.

But apparently the Williams don't get well with the supersoft... So they should be good for the race, but apparently in Q3 they are going to suffer more than others with the super softs. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

He's looking really good the past 4 or 5 races. |

Perez makes it through on the last lap. And Bottas recorded the fastest S2 time.
Kimi just seems like he's phoning it in. |
|
Button and Raikkonen bumped.
Raikkonen, wow. This car isn't for him. |
|
|
Same Mercedes power units on top, as always.... That would be 5 of them if ham didn't crash
|
|
|
Ricciardo beat Vettel with his last lap.
And Alonso dragging around this dog of a Ferrari is a tragedy. |

Glad I picked Rosberg for the win, but I'd be happy to see Bottas at the top, too.

Lewis switched to clean side of grid:
Lewis Hamilton officially qualified 16th, but a penalty for Sauber's Esteban Gutierrez moves him up to 15th - which crucially is the clean side of the grid. View Quote Odd detail: Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg use different manufacturers for your brakes. It is possible that the team might suggest to Hamilton that he switches to Rosberg's as a precaution. That will not be ideal as a driver picks his brake company based on feel so it will take a lot of getting used to. View Quote |

Lewis Hamilton looks set to be forced to start from the pitlane for the German Grand Prix, with Mercedes choosing to switch brake disc supplier following his qualifying crash. The Briton had switched to Brembo discs on Saturday morning, but suffered a failure during Q1 on Saturday which pitched him in to the barriers at the Sachskurve. With Mercedes aware that time is too short to guarantee that there will not be any more problems in the race, it has decided to revert Hamilton to Carbone Industrie discs for the race. With the change of brake disc specification being a breach of parc ferme rules, it looks likely that Hamilton will be forced to start from the pitlane. Mercedes motorsport boss Toto Wolff said after qualifying that the German car manufacturer was speaking to the FIA about the situation, as it hoped Hamilton could still start on the grid because the change was only being made on safety grounds. "We have had a brake failure which means we are obliged to make sure that the car is running safe tomorrow," said Wolff. "That means switching the brakes supplier. "If this results in starting from the pitlane is not yet discussed, and we have not yet brought the decision on that. But we are discussing that with the FIA. "And I would even go further: obviously many teams are running that brake material so that safety discussion probably needs to be extended." Mercedes was still not sure whether or not Hamilton would require a gearbox change for Hamilton as well, which would drop him five places anyway. View Quote |

I don't like Hamilton at all, but watching him storm through the field will be epic. Wonder if he can make it to 2nd?

Nico is going to sail to a win tomorrow. He'll be 30 seconds ahead by the end. We've had some exciting races recently, this won't be one of them, IMO.
|
|
all the action will be back in the pack. I'd like to see Alonso muscle his way forward if the Ferrari has any hint of performance tomorrow. If it rains, that might make for a good show.

Up at 4:30 to watch the race live so I can meet my buddies for a supermoto ride later this morning.

Fresh cup of coffee in hand and ready to go.
BOOGITY! BOOGITY!! BOOGITY!!! |
|
|
Oh Massa.
Pretty much kills his chances of evening up with Bottas. |
|
A shame....completely random thought here. I like the Williams driving suit. Kinda old school very plain.
