The big story of this race is the USA coming into F1 and showing the euro-poors how easy it is to get competitive. How many seasons did we see those poo poo new teams bringing up the rear and desperate for points?

Kataphract posted:Considering how much Hamilton whines (and I've been rooting for Lewis since he entered F1), Max having a hissy fit in frustration is just one of those things in life he'll have to learn how to work through. Whining on the radio is one thing, like someone else mentioned, Alonso, Hamilton, Vettel all do that. The point was Max was crying about not being given a free pass on his teammate. Say what you like, I don't think I've ever heard Lewis crying that he has to overtake someone.

be nice wicka posted:yes. and so do the rest of the FOM partners. all of them are very good at making money off the sport. making slightly less money is better driving it into nonexistence and making no money at all. this isn't rocket science. there is no danger whatsoever to F1 here. none at all. the sky is not falling. can we please calm down?

I missed qualifying because "early" but the result is good, it makes it a lot more interesting to see Hamilton have to drive hard for his WDC rather than just strolling it like last year.

In my head I remembered him leading from start to finish but similarly, I don't hold stats very well. The year before he was almost constantly having to come from behind to win though.

Apparently, no driver has ever lost the championship after winning the first three races. I will therefore watch with interest to see how Nico manages it

thegasman2000 posted:Did mercedes comment on the damage to Lewis' car at all? I would think he was running with a serious disadvantage after running over his own front wing what with the floor be so vital to aero. He almost got overtaken at the end by a Toro Rosso so I'm pretty sure the car wasn't right in some way shape or form. I believe Merc said the floor was damaged from the wing at some point. krushgroove posted:It's weird seeing the dislike for Nico bubble up in the thread...like it did for Seb when he was dominating (and then disappeared when he went to Ferrari)...almost as if anyone who does well is disliked until they inevitably (because no one is perfect) slip and falter...? I get that Lewis acts like a twat quite a lot but Seb and Nico are pretty likeable (OK, apart from Seb's initial reaction to Kyvat's first corner driving). in the interests of full disclosure, I don't like Nico. The root of my dislike is basically "I don't think he's that good" (He's obviously still a great driver and better than many on the grid) but because this is a sport, half the fun comes from exaggerating our likes/dislikes to extreme proportions. So it's easy to take that dislike and turn it into STRONG dislike when he wins like he did yesterday, when the only person capable of beating him had to start from the back of the grid.

I didn't think it was possible but now Red Bull have managed to become even more irritating as a team. With the arrival of frog-face oval office to partner gurning-aussie oval office, that's got to be the most hated driver lineup on the grid now. Oh and that Fernando/Button advert thing is awful and cringy and you're an idiot if you like it. Bring back TOONED.

Basically Lewis expected Rosberg to have a brain and cover the inside, and when it was clear that Rosberg had forgotten he was in an F1 race with other cars it was too late to do anything about it. I've changed my mind. It was Lewis's fault for giving Rosberg any amount of credit
