You can just sense the British media circling their wagons around their boy. Squeaky bum time indeed. Wonder if the Germans are doing the same for Nico.

No, Germans aren't as hysterical in their chauvinism anyway, but Rosberg is just one of the Germans, he's not the most German one and in general a bit bland. No one really hates him and no one really loves him.
But the main difference is that the Germans try to hold up some standards in journalism, while for example the BBC has become an embarrassment. I've seen 13-year old Belieber girls with soaked panties beeing more objective and realistic about Justin Bieber than this once internationally acclaimed institute about Hamilton. Last week they have outdone themselves, which I thought have been impossible.
Start is going to be important for Lewis, he needs a good one.
It would be great if we finally got a tight race at the front with these two
At least one of them will be hit by the curse of the Mercedes clutch, just hope Red Bull have the race pace to make it interesting anyway.
Massa has stalled on the grid did not make it for the presentation lap.
would be good yet , Lewis was much faster in qulifying, if he stays at the front and has no problems, cant see him being caught.
good starrt for Lewis , Nico down in 23 after Vettel hit him.
what about those light , they took an age.

Alsons up to 13 from dead last and Okon up to 10th in the Manor.
Looking at the replay, I don't see what else Vettel could do there
There was a space there but I think Max may of hit Vettel.
Vestappen lost control from the over head replay
I thought there was more than enough space for Vettel to keep the inside line and avoid all of that. Max has to turn at some point, though I'm not excluding him from some blame, just not the lion share at first viewing.
Should be a formality for Lewis from here, surely.

Brake pedal might have been an option.
Verstappen clearly has a knack for spoiling Ferrari's hopes
Sky are saying the Max never touch Vettel and it was just a racing incident.
the Merc's dont like running in dirty air, this could be a good race after all.
Pity I have to leave soon and take son to football.

Lewis in front now, Max does not need another stop, down to Lewis now to build up a big enough lead for a pit stop.
Never thought I'd see the day Malaysia might be a one stopper.
Rosberg driving in to people again.
Can't really blame him today after what happened early on
Wow
damn son
Oh wow. Rosberg is just fated to win this
Genuinely felt sympathy for Lewis for one of the few times ever then. Perfect weekend ruined 15 laps from home when he was coasting to victory.
Championship over for Lewis. Can't catch a break this year.
Finally some luck going Dans way
Still plenty of races to go but Lewis can't afford another one of those and the way his luck has been this season he probably will have another.
Pretty embarrasing for Mercedes to be honest.

Funny listening to Channel 4 hyping this up when it's clearly a formation finish to the end. Ricciardo's deserved a win this year though, pleased for him.
What happened ?
Hamiltons engine went bye bye
Cheers
Lewis's engine blew up and he has 1 engine for 5 races gonna need another Spa day
Shoeys for all after this
23 point gap. Nico can finish 2nd to Lewis in 3 races and still be top. That's quite a safety cushion at this stage.
Great race, some brilliant driving from Ricciardo to keep Verstappen behind
Best podium ever, shoeys for everyone
I love you Ricciardo
Great scenes. Ricciardo is such a top bloke.
