I couldn’t believe it. I accidentally went to Autosport this morning forgetting that I hadn’t watched the GP and saw the result and I figured Ricciardo suffered a DNF. When I saw that happen to him during the race I was astonished. Red Bull blew the fucking race. He’s now been screwed twice in a row. The first time,

Unbelievable lap and he set that time with over 7 minutes still left to go in the session. I’m not sure Hamilton wouldn’t have been able to trump that given the entire session, but that’s basically irrelevant since F1 is as much about the engineering of the cars as it is the driver and the Mercedes failed Hamilton. I

Oh absolutely. I take nothing away from his spectacular driving today. He held off Kimi for 30 laps. To say strategy didn't help him win, however, would be a fallacy.

I feel like they won’t do that because with so many drivers out of contract at the end of this season, he can easily jump ship. Now, if they want someone to be a doormat to Max, that’s great because as good as I think Sainz is, if the car is designed around Max, it’s a wash for him. If they don’t want Ricciardo to

Well I hope it’s not a conspiracy at RBR because it would really rob everyone of some fantastic racing. I at least give Merc credit for letting their drivers race but RBR has a history of picking a clear #1. It seems that the commentators also thought that 3 stops was the preferable strategy but I’m not sure that the

Especially since despite his epic drive, I firmly believe Ricciardo would’ve taken the victory given the same strategy.

He had a good race. Claimed fastest lap by a few tenths if I’m not mistaken. Outclassed by Sainz, though. If Ricciardo was to leave RBR for whatever reason, Sainz is certainly another excellent driver. Shame he paired so poorly with Max.

I live in America... the race started at around 8:05 AM EST, which is only the crack of dawn if you live on the west coast. This is a racing blog, which posts racing news. Would you bitch to Autosport about their headline which also spoils the race result?

Superb analysis and as per the other article posted on here about the crash, evidently, that mistake with the switch left Rosberg down 180 hp on Hamilton. That’s incredible that he could forget something like that. I presume that’s what happened at least.

The spoiler is the damn headline. This is history being made. I DVR’d the GP because I had work and I simply stayed off any automotive news sites.

I doubt that will happen. I take nothing away from Verstappen but Ricciardo had a stellar drive and has had a fantastic start to this season. Add that to the fact that he had a stellar 2014 season in which Vettel found himself outmatched as well as some very good drives last year and it’d be ridiculous to think that

I was at work when that incident happened and thank goodness no one was around because I went off. That was an unreal accident. I can't see anyway that the blame isn't mostly with Lewis.

What a fucking race! Absolutely the best race I’ve watched in years. Seeing history made here. I think you could argue that RBR has the best driver line up in F1 right now. Ricciardo didn’t win the race but shit if both Red Bull drivers didn’t embarrass Ferrari today. Absolutely unreal. That RenauLt upgrade may put

Despite Evans apparent dickheadedness, I’ve been excited for this since I saw the first trailer... I’m glad at least on this site, I don’t appear to be in the minority. Definitely excited to see Harris and Sabine on TV and I actually think LeBlanc is a chill guy.

I live in New Jersey and frankly, I’d pay an extra 2 cents per gallon NOT to have full service. I can check my oil and tires myself. Living in a densely populated area where the law is that you cannot pump your own gas is awful. Sometimes takes upwards of five to seven minutes just to have someone come over and put

Your comment fails to account for how Kimi cut back across the front left of Vettel from running wide to leave absolutely no room for Vettel to maneuver. Kimi should’ve been more mindful. There was no reason for him to cut back in, regardless of the speed Kvyat carried into the corner. Vettel left a huge gap, Kvyat

The stewards and almost every analyst, including many former drivers.

Considering the incident in China was 0% his fault, there’s no reason for penalties for that. I actually did expect an exclusion from results after that second hit. Looked like it was purposeful. Upon closer examination, I think Vettel lifted or braked earlier than expected. Still no excuse. It was a farce of a first

We’ve all seen that perspective as it was shown on TV multiple times during the race. If Kimi hadn’t run wide and come back, thereby cutting across the front left of Vettel’s car, he wouldn’t have made contact. The gap Vettel left was huge. I think basically every pundit is in agreement that Kvyat was 100% not at

He got 2 penalty points on his superlicense in addition to the 10 second penalty.
