RIC rant after the race and Sportsbet refunding RIC bets.

Racing is racing. Sometimes the nut behind the wheel does something stupid, sometimes the nut(s) attaching the wheel does something stupid. Either way the race is lost.

At Monaco last year , a blunder by Hamilton's team, calling him into the pits when the safety car came out, cost him the race too.

There is a reason that Red Bull are not vying for the Championship at present, and Ric is not the chief culprit. The car, then the team must take the blame, for as Monaco and Spain showed, when Ric has something to work with he can match the best.

Merc still has the better overall package and will likely be dominant at Canada - generally a quick circuit.

Baku might be interesting

that pit stop was just like a kick in the guys. it's taken me a week to get over it. bring on Canada! love this race, as it's always our long weekend, and don't have to go to work straight after the race. hehehe

After the GP2 race I'm quite impressed 16 laps have passed with no incidents.

 

[moa999]

Very surprised at lack of incidents

 

[KLN]

we were in shock too! got all excited after Quali, thinking it was going to be carnage for the race, and they were all good. an amazing incidents in the restart of the GP2 race though, it think that must've put the wind up everyone. great to see LH not able to find his spot on the steering wheel, sorry, not a LH fan. he should've spent more time doing homework rather than partying last fortnight with Justin Bieber. NIco knew what the settings were. great to throw in a mix. great for Force India, Kimi had to let him pass as he knew he had that 5 sec penalty (maybe not deserved)

Interesting grid on an overcast afternoon in Austria. Bring on the rain!

 

[KLN]

STill no rain lap 47/71...................Quali was very exciting though. Come on Daniel Ricci!

 

[Buzzard]

A really exciting British GP

 

[moa999]

Rain helps, but looks like HAM is gone out the front

 

[JessicaTam]

Looked like the Wacky Races for a while.

Great race..loved the pit stops after the SC came in. Posting this as Rosberg has slight gearbox problems.....go Max.

 

[moa999]

Think ROS has to get a penalty. Driver needs to work through gear box issues.. doesn't catch 7, learn to shift through it
