formula 1, it's that time again

I see no conspiracy as the last thing they wanted was Vettel second.

My query was not that they got the time mixed up by why pit him anyway?. The time to me is irrelevent or second base , the man had about 6 laps left still on good tyres and its the hardest track to pass in the calender so why?

 

Even if ferrari had had come in it would have got him behind Rosberg and with 6 laps left would he have passed him i have grave doubts.

 

It is a very baffling command to pit with 6 laps left

 

Hamilton got cocked up by Rosberg last year and Mercedes this year . hamilton took it well but just a little to well for my liking although i loved the 3rd place marker being knocked over that made me chuckle

I'm not totally convinced it wasn't staged, maybe they got the timing wrong as far as Vettels position, but not as far as Rosberg was concerned. I'm sure they don't want a big gap between Hamilton and Rosberg, just to make it more 'exciting' towards the end of the season.

I'm sure I wouldn't have been as calm as Hamilton was on the radio to the pit-crew, if it had been broadcast it would have been a long line of BLEEPS! d015.gif

Can you imagine if that had happened to Raikkonen....LOL :bigemo_harabe_net-165::bangin: :bangin:

John ( gozzer) i must disagree The last thing they want is it to be close between them towards the end as Vettel is spoiling the show this year so it suits Mercedes that one of them is way out of sight so they will not tussle and maybe let Ferrari in. It only takes a crash between them to let Ferrari in. thats why the whole thing was a cock up yesterday for driver and team..!

That's why I said they only misjudged Vettels position, Dave.

I find it hard to see any reason why they brought Hamilton in. If Vettel had pitted, he would have come out behind Kvyat, so no threat. It defies any logic as to why they would pit Hamilton, regardless of any miscalculation. The only reason that makes any sense is if they wanted to try and keep the points gap between Hamilton and Rosberg, under control. At a time when they are trying to increase the interest in F1, making sure that there is still some kind of competition at the end of the season is one way of doing it.

Theres also financial shenanigans behind the scenes as well ,lots of money in betting etc and lost interest from screening fees if some bugger wins all the points they need in in consecutive wins

good luck to Hamilton, he's only got to make sure his team don't cr@p on him and he will romp it.

Free to choose apart from the ones where the trust poked their nose in. Common eel. tope. Bass and sea bream. All restricted.


New for 2016 TAT are the main instigators for the demise of the u k bass charter boat industry, where they went screaming off to parliament and for the first time assisting so called angling gurus set up bass take bans with the e u using rubbish exaggerated info collected by ices from anglers, they must be very proud.

Upgrade, the door has been closed with regards to anglers being linked to the e u superstate and the failed c f p. So TAT will no longer need to pay monies to the EAA anymore as that org is no longer relevant to the u k . Goodbye to the europeon anglers alliance and pathetic restrictions from the e u.

Angling is better than politics, ban politics from angling.

Consumer of bass. where is the evidence that the u k bass stock need angling trust protection. Why won't you work with your peers instead of castigating them. They have the answer.

Recipie's for mullet stew more than welcomed.

Angling sanitation trust and kent and sussex sea anglers org delete's and blocks rsa's alternative opinion on their face book site. Although they claim to rep all.

new for 2014. where is the evidence that the south coast bream stock need the angling trust? Your campaign has no evidence. Why won't you work with your peers, the inshore under tens? As opposed to alienating them? Angling trust failed big time re bait digging, even fish legal attempted to intervene and failed, all for what, nothing.

Looks like the sea angling reps have been coerced by the ifca's to compose sea angling strategy's that the ifca's at some stage will look at drafting into legislation to manage the rsa, because they like wasting tax payers money. That's without asking the rsa btw. You know who you are..

Yesterdays race has to go down as one of the most boring. Thee wasn't a lot of racing going on.

Let's agree to respect each others views, no matter how wrong yours may be.
