Quote HistoryQuoted: I've said it for years, NASCAR should add some more road courses and even a dirt track or two. Sounds crazy, but I think a .375 to .5 mile dirt track race is doable and would be cool as hell.

I have to say that I'm enjoying the personality contest between Lewis and Nico. When Nico wins - they practically need a wrecker to drag Hamilton into the post-race room. I've never seen two guys in a small room/podium manage to avoid seeing each other.
If Nico wins the next race - Hamilton is going to melt down into a little pool of butter. The Red Bull/Vettel sideshow is just icing. |

Every time a Qualifying session involves something more than just driving the car as fast as possible - like timing and strategy - Rosberg usually ends up on top.
Hamilton just can't manage changeable conditions well. Rosberg putting the needle to Hamilton again: TEAM RADIO
Mercedes driver Nico Rosberg: "Could you please tell Lewis that he needs to speed up." So according to Mercedes co-team boss Paddy Lowe, it was Lewis Hamilton's decision to abort the lap. "He felt the lap was worse," says Lowe. "He bailed out, which was unfortunate as a lot of time was found in sector three." Rosberg must have Hamilton really rattled. |

Lewis Hamilton gives a Kimi Raikkonen-esque interview to Lee McKenzie.
"I don't know, I don't have much of an answer," says Lewis Hamilton when asked why he aborted the lap. When pushed for an answer, a disappointed Hamilton added: "I just decided not to do the lap." Did he not complete the lap because he felt he wasn't going to improve, Hamilton says: "Obviously not. I don't have anything to say to you at the moment." vs. Nico Rosberg, after securing his fourth pole position of the season: "It was definitely quite crazy - certainly in first qualifying it was and last qualifying also.
"The tyres were still drying out so we lost time on the out lap. We sat in the garage and eventually came to the conclusion that we might as well go out out and have a look. "Then it seemed like it was worth it because the last part of the lap was very dry. It was a great team effort." |

Wow, Hamilton just gave up! Damn. What a bone head move. At least he admitted it. He was pretty dumbfounded when the female did the WTF on him. Then Buxton piled on.
Vettel said you just have to keep trying. Guess it might be starting to work. Ferrari just can not catch a break. If it isn't the car, its a bad strategy and this one caught them out. Interesting to hear the talk that Kimi is leaving at the end of next year. This is going to be an interesting race. If its dry, probably Nico's race to lose, if it rains, its going to be a free for all. |

Lauda sticks it to Hamilton.
Mercedes chief Niki Lauda confirms that it was Lewis Hamilton's decision to abort his final quick lap.
"It was tricky in the end, we were both well in the lead, then we had to make a decision on whether we go out again. "They both pushed to go out. Lewis thought the circuit was slower so he stopped, Nico kept going. "It was Lewis' decision because he thought he cannot go quicker but Nico proved you can go quicker and he was proved right. "This time Nico was outstanding again to grab pole under these difficult conditions." I have to believe that no one at Mercedes was happy with Hamilton's blatant and classless attempt to cheat Nico out of his last lap. |
