Channel Four cut off before we could get a replay of the lap. I assumed the yellow flags vanished just in time for Rosberg but if he's gone through double yellows and gets the lap taken off him I'll do a victory lap of the neighbourhood.

He lifted, re-play showed gears and speed drop fast. Assuming he did something sneaky like hit a start mode after passing the flags. In all fairness Rosberg's always been a quali machine, it's the actual racing he has problems with.

If by machine you mean one able to swoop in and get those sweet pole positions provided his main rival has been taken out by car troubles and the like then yes.

I always thought the point of yellow flags was "don't set your fastest sector" rather than "hey just blip the throttle to let us know you've seen them". If he set a slow sector then made it up later on the drying track then fine.


oh gently caress off.

48 seconds in for the double waved yellows. She's dead right about there being gear and speed drops. Neglected to mention it was while he was turning into a corner however.

Does anyone other than Sky show the post-qualifying conferences? Channel 4 literally had to go off air as soon as Hamilton was walking into the weighing station.

They're probably boring as hell but I'd enjoy seeing Lewis' body language for a minute or so.

Rosberg cleared of speeding under yellows, somehow still set the best qualifying lap while slowing down in the sector under yellow.

10 cars didn't set a time in qualifying within 107% of the top time, so they are being placed according to times set in practice 3. Definitely the 6 out in Q1, possibly all 10

I'm just going by what the people who's opinion matters say.



Also, in terms of the 107% thing, they're kinda half applying the rule, allowing the cars outside of the 107% to start, but still allowing red bull, force india, and bottas keep their place, otherwise red bull would be dropped to 13th and 14th.

There's little point in beating a dead horse now that Rosberg is cleared but gently caress him anyway: https://streamable.com/5ssk
