Bah, what a s**t-show. Not really much racing going on today.
BMWs are fun in the snow too...
Joining in late. Missed the first part of live racing before the red flag. Quick question though when Richard was coming into the pits were the lights just flashing or was it red all the time??
This is the most crap race I've seen in awhile, what's the point of even having wet tires if the race is just run with a safety car/red flag the entire time when it rains?
"BOOO .... BOOOOO"
Screw it, I'm off to buy a kebab.

Drivers saying the track is good enough, let's red flag it a second time anyway.
VES is f@cking with ROS under safety car, LoL

Anddd another safety car
Nothing against Verstappen or anything, but Brundle is seriously jinxing him. He keeps going on about how "Verstappen can go anywhere and he just finds the grip". I know how that tends to end...

During the restarts I realized that Max was trying to find grip wherever possible before the actual race resumes. He did brilliant in overtaking from outside and also brilliant save from that spin.

Alright, if Nico comes 2nd at Abu Dhabi he will still be ahead of Lewis by 5 points standing at 385 even if Lewis wins the GP. If he comes in third then he'll be ahead by 2 points only. Now if he ends up in 4th place while Lewis still winning it will be a draw between the two. Therefore, a fourth or below is a no no for Nico because currently both drivers have 9 wins in this season.
And one of the best GPs I've seen in a long time.
Besides VES needing a penalty for overtaking under the SC it was a flat out tire race at the end.
Now we have Orange Senna (even though his tires were 40+ laps younger) he made a fool of RIC and many others - including VET - though I hate to say it.
Abu Dhabi.....
Not sure why is Gutierrez mad. It is so obvious he is underperforming. How many chances does he need? Sad to see Massa go out of the sport like that,
Yeah, it sucked seeing him not to finish his home GP in points. I bet even Rob Smedley was in tears too.
Glad I stuck around after all the safety cars and red flags. What a masterful drive by Verstappen. It wasn't even fair how quick he was compared to everyone else. '84 Senna-esque

Turned out to be one of hte most enjoyable (second half) of a race I've seen in a little while.
Verstappen really is a machine, or the balance in that redbull is phenomenal, or both. Beyond the one major slide he had that he controlled superbly, he had many small slides that he kept under control throughout the race. He may have given hamilton a go with enough time remaining, he made the race very fun to watch.
Massa's ceremonial walk was almost enough to get the waterworks going, warmed the heart to see the whole paddock applauding him.
I definitely thought brundle was going to wet himself when he spoke with lewis on the podium, probably got him to sign his undies.

It will all come down to the start I'm sure.
A bore until the end. Let them have a normal start. Let them race. Let those who can handle it win.
Getting tired of Vettel's whining. As someone once said, if it were easy everyone would do it.
Verstappen was spectacular. Absolutely amazing.

Yeah the start was bs. If a driver is better off the line in those conditions then their advantage is earned.
I suppose they were trying to avoid collisions in turn one....there would likely have been many.
