2018 Austrian GP - RACE

[Stormy]

I must say, i'm kind of happy for all these Dutch fans at the race today. They had something to cheer upon considering they failed to qualify for the World Cup.

How's the post mortem going on Sky?

Can we assume that the Ferrari package is currently the best, for now? considering the track layout with high elevation above sea level...

Its a great result but let us all keep our feet on the ground. Rapper Boy is unbeatable in Silverstone. Here's hoping our updates work come next week.

Now coming to ground, mercs will start pushing FIA & Pirelli to change tyre spec for the rest of races.

Horner interview, suddenly I'm feeling nauseous. "Max is great, bla bla..."

[IulianFerrari]

yeah, but wasn't YOU that was scraming to SWAP, SWAP, SWAP????

it was only fair to kimi to keep his spot, he worked really hard for it

No actually, i said they will probably do it. I never said they should do it, take a look back, my friend...

LOL

[mwk360]

saw some people online say mercs and toto are going to FIA about using the merc tyres for more races after seeing blistering today and using it as a weight in there argument, its so unfair if they do that

Max would have been just ok, if the race was 5 laps longer

[FerrariF60]

Both merc lost engine IMO
they will cover up by saying transmission and hydraulic but given the late introduction of this spec to me they have pushed the envelope too far

i agree.....as for the WORKS team they are pushing the engine much MORE then the customer teams.....and now that Ferrari have a good engine and really pushing the Mercs we see the little gremlins in hte Merc engien when they are pushing it all the time

Yup saw that online too, few people saying that. Its not fair to any other team that has built cars for normal tyres

[f412]

of all the things and miracles that could happen in motorsports this has to be the first of its kind.


kimi came from a long way back in points standing to 3rd.(if ricci had not retired that might not have happened)

and when ricci retired we thought hamster got lucky again.. but voila... hammy too been taken out ....

and lets not forget poor bottas... all of these combined to give a positive result for us.. when we all were so down and pretty much given up..

somebody is answering somebody's prayer ...

[mwk360]

congrats to HAAS!

Cheers si sa speram ca Ferrari o sa fie pe podium 1-2 in Anglia

Merc boys not hopping like rabbits in front of the TV cameras like last week. They all seem pretty sour atm. And Lewis' race engineer is in the can washing out his mouth after sucking off lewis on live TV.

[512 TR]

So guys... Should have Kimi took Lewis out in the 1st corner?

I'm an IDIOT!

[mwk360]

sauber 9 - 10

[KimiBot]

Hamster is not happy

[paneristi]

[IulianFerrari]

Not to be greedy but Max hitting Kimi's left back tire looked a lot like Seb with Bottas in France. Kimi managed to keep it on the road, so no 5 sec?

I doubt Mercedes can get away with it. Well sure, tyres blister on this track. But they worked pretty fine last week on Paul Ricard. Even Max said the soft turned out to be like medium tyre, so durable.
It takes more than a single occasion for Mercedes to appeal for tyre changes. Especially with Red Bull car winning this track? I doubt they would support this madness.

I posted pics of Mercedes blistering their tires during FP's......those pics were when track temps were 20 degrees cooler than race day.

[mwk360]

Yup and seeing as ferrari are always targeted , always getting there loopholes banned by fia, its amazing that we are matching in points

[IulianFerrari]

I'm an IDIOT!

Maybe more positive next time? It helps keeping morale high on the forum.

[mwk360]

they made a hamilton cry compilation on sky??? first time ever?
