GutBomb posted:The Ferraris took the start, the mercs made mistakes shortly after, they made some more mistakes throughout the race, vettel was flawless, Kimi had car trouble, the mercs made some more mistakes, the end. Vettel is always flawless when he's at the front with his teammate behind him. His driving only goes to poo poo when he's forced to race someone.

Being unbeatable at the front is far better than being beatable at the front. Jedit posted:His driving only goes to poo poo when he's forced to race someone. Like at the start you mean? He's had to fight for a chunk of his podiums this year, even if only against Kimi and the Williamseses.

Being honest here, Vettels half season with Ferrari has given me more respect for him than his Championship reign.

Maybe we could all club together and buy him a ticket for next year Endymion FRS MK1 posted:Seriously, this is the third in a row. Can we say 4 out of the past 5 instead? That way we can cover rain master supreme Jenson winning in 2011 in his 200th F1 race, at the track he got his first win 5 years prior

Falken posted:Uhhh, hasn't Lewis had to (and succeeded) to overtake to win many times? Hmmm overtaking shithouse cars in what is either the most dominant or second most dominant car ever made in F1? He must be the best ever. Also my favourite Vettel overtake was this one race in Malaysia.  Jedit posted:Rocketing off the line is not a racing skill. Right, it's so irrelevant it isn't even part of racing.

Having an illegal car is not a skill. Vettel has never not had an illegal car.

ukle posted:There is only so much you can polish a turd, and that engine could well be beyond salvaging given they seem to have made no real progress increasing its power output all season, they just stopped it breaking after only a few laps. Honda are very very bad. The car is also bad, as Mclaren are poo poo.

poo poo Farm posted:what about scott speed? Couldn't say. I only started watching in 2011 and any interest I've had in older races has been strictly limited to the 80s. From what I gather Red Bull started going downhill on the PR front around the time Vettel moved up from Toro Rosso, which I'm now starting to think had nothing to do with Vettel and everything to do with the fact they were winning regularly.

Rosberg's tyre choice made no difference whatsoever, he was never going to pass Vettel. Hell, did he manage to pass anyone at all in the whole race? I can't think of anyone. Even with slicks Rosberg would still be a bad driver and a German foreigner who is not British and cheats poty fucked around with this message at 17:14 on Jul 27, 2015 |

What an awesome loving race. I was so happy once Hammy torpedo'd Ricky-yard-tho because I knew it was over. The only thing that would have made it better is if he would have gotten beached in the gravel on lap 1. Falken posted:Being honest here, Vettels half season with Ferrari has given me more respect for him than his Championship reign. I wonder how much of his 2014 season was him making sure to do just poorly enough to get the opt-out of his RBR contract. I think he still shows signs of weakness in overtaking and but there is no doubt the guy doesn't make mistakes driving out front. Forza Anyone But Mercedes

I can't explain why Vettel did so poorly in the '14 RBR, particularly as it was the 2nd best car. I enjoyed this race too, despite not being too fond of the Hungaroring in general. It's my favourite race this season.

I read the first few posts after the race aired and thought Hamilton totally ate poo poo on the first lap - I was so excited. Slightly let down that he didn't bin the car, but him running off into the gravel was equally satisfying.
