So as far as Nico's BS excuse that his brakes failed...he didn't even try to turn, he went straight into Ham. If his brakes were actually F'd you would at least see him trying to turn. Look at his hands on the steering wheel, video speaks for itself.

100% accurate. He knew he was getting passed and did not want Lewis to pass no matter what the cost.

I find it a bit crazy the way Lauda is reacting to these situations.
Hate Hamilton much? Maybe he is just getting too old and jaded.
I am losing respect for him based on these two merc situations.
How was Lewis at fault at all here?

Is any one else enjoying this as much as I am?
Any bets on how long it will take until Nico actually cries during an interview?

Max had such a good drive. I hope the cars outside of Merc continue to get more competitive.

This is feeling like Nico's last season at Merc..did you see the weigh-in room after the race? Nico and Lewis didn't exchange a word...very frosty atmosphere

I have a sinking feeling that next year when the new rules come into effect that Merc will make another big step away from the rest of the field and we will be back to 2014

Of course Nico didnt say anything. he is so sour and its sooo good

Could you remind me what the changes are for next year so i dont have to dig around?
Is that where they are taking the token/point system out, and allow more development? or complete opposite?

Thanks!

They are changing the Aero rules to allow more downforce and the tires are going to be wider..They are trying to make the cars 5 seconds a lap quicker and more difficult to drive

I enjoy oh so much Nico getting upset.
Its sooooo good.
He WILL cry during an interview one of these days!

Anyways, do you think Hamilton has it locked in now that he is the points leader?

Or do we smell more drama?
Thoughts on Sundays race?

Hamilton has major issues with running out of turbos, KERS parts etc... due to failures early in the season so he will be taking some big penalties in the upcoming races and starting way back....It will be an interesting end to the season for sure
