Other than crashing into Vettel, didn't Kvyat snatched a podium a few races ago? Haven't watched any races this year.

Apart from his podium he's been qualifying and racing horribly and Ricciardo has been kicking his ***

Renault are supposed to have a huge engine upgrade coming so hopefully Max can take it to Ricciardo and the Ferraris

Ricciardo was screwed out of a win by his own team so the kid would get them the headlines?

Been extremely busy.

They put him on a 3-stopper but kept Max on a 2-stop race which meant Ricciardo got dropped from the lead and his 'fresher tires that he can attack on' were not worth dick on a circuit like Barcelona where overtaking is so difficult

And then he got a flat tire.

Unbelieveable race. People are going to be talking about this one for a long time.

Oh wow.
I need to finish the race.

Jourdan - I agree. Just from the first part of the race i watched. The Merc crash was soooo bad. and IMO it was Nico's fault. Lewis had him beat, no question. That is the reason I heavily dislike Nico.

This is why Lewis passed him right by, right?

Had him beat...


Lewis got a wing, and hardly a tire next to Nico, but these days that means he's got him beat?

He was gaining with incredible speed.

I also think Lewis was far enough forward to be entitled to some space.

But then it came out that Nico wasn't paying attention? Not to mention that Nico was also in the wrong engine mode to be going fast.
