The F1 Thread 2014 Season

Wow, Maldonado just plowed right into him there, SC out.
 
Magnusson stops at the side of the track now.
 
Maldonado could have simply just braked and come to a halt. Instead he carried on thinking he had right of way.

He's a fecking moron.
 
Rosberg will win this now. The softs are 0.3 seconds quicker. Maldonado fecks up another race by being a dangerously inept moron.

Seriously, Maldonado has been at this for two years already. He'll kill someone eventually.
 
I hate how money talks so much in F1, Maldonado is a bloody idiot, should never have been in F1 despite his talent as he's a liability.
 
We have actually been robbed of a fascinating end now, that could have been very interesting between the Mercs. Rosberg will just cruise by now because he won't need to nurse those options.
 
It's amazing how the car just flips so easily the moment it touches the other cars wheel
 
Thats just reckless from Maldonado, pure reckless. He has been involved in dangerous shit like this before, he may bring them sponsors but he is a liability none the less.
 
Maldonado needs a permanent ban. This is very, very far from the first time he's done something like this.
 
Magnussons clutch failed which is why he is out, should be an easy enough run to the line for Rosberg really.
 
I'm thought he was given a perm ban in Monaco in a lower formula but he paid them off. Not 100% sure but remember reading it somewhere. It's bollocks though, he needs to leave.

Yup:

Wiki said:
However, his participation in the WSR was marred by a four-race ban for dangerous driving. He failed to slow down at the scene of an accident at Monaco, despite the presence of warning flags, and struck and seriously injured a marshal, for which he got a life-time ban at Monaco.
 
This waiting for the lapped runners to pass and catch up is total bull shit, just bring the SC un and let them race.
 
It didn't, Maldonado rams the Sauber with his nose, which gets under the Sauber and so flips it over.
Think it was Ted or Martin Brundle who said an accident like this was waiting to happen because of the lower nose.
 
Don't think that was team orders Ted, he just doesn't want them to do anything silly.
 
Mercs say the drivers are free to race, Paddy Lowe giving them as good as team orders now, both of them told to make sure they bring the car home which is surely pretty much the end of the 'race'
 
Don't think that was team orders Ted, he just doesn't want them to do anything silly.

Its not a direct order as such but its the next best thing, its like they just said on sky, Paddy Lowe does not come on the radio unless he means business but they are going wheel to wheel anyway!! Exciting stuff :drool:

Look more to me that the sauber nose gets under and lifts the car, but it is only when the underside/side of the car slides onto the sauber wheel that the car does the flip part.
 
Button falls back down the order, tyres cold after the SC period and cant get them back.
 
Lewis is almost a second a head needs to run on full power until the end now.
