Purple is ultra soft yellow super softs. Seb was on the yellow supersofts which is the tyre everyone was doing those huge long runs on. Turns out there was no reason for his tyre to have exploded unless there was somethign like debris.

Pirelli tweeted that the failure was due to debris then deleted the tweet.

So can we expect Rosberg to get a 10 spot penalty next race if he is found guilty?

"If they don't understand they shouldn't crash into each other we might consider team orders next time - even if it's unpopular."

and i'm sure in that situation they would have told lewis not to attack, despite the fact that it's clearly rosberg's fault

If they think he did it deliberately he will be lucky if he only gets DQed from this race.

Toto Wolff is being a bit dumb here. Saying "Two Mercedes crashing is disrespectful to the 1500 people who work (and get paid well) on the cars"

and then

"So we'll have team orders and be disrespectful to the millions of fans instead"

Merc and McLaren are going to trade Lewis and Alonso

of course after this happens Honda are going to develop the best engine F1 has ever seen and Mercedes will never win a race ever again

To be more precise: because they only had a different spec front wing available. Same spec would have been a grid start.

I think it was something like Williams->BAR->Ferrari->Brawn->Mercedes. How he is still employed is beyond me because Mercedes have made some really questionable strategy calls in the past

Apparently the race commentators going through the speakers at the track were saying it was Lewis' fault as well, and that's why the fans were booing.

e: but probably they're just pissed at Brexit.
