Autosport isn't updated for some reason

Look at Fernandos time, Lewis just made 2 or so second gain on SS on low fuel, now work out Fernandos time, and sure if he pushed make bigger gains aswell on the SS.

Edit

Didnt realise Autosport wasnt updating.

what on earth autosport is doing with the time sheets, they're quick to update new result for Hamilton, whereas Alonso has the same time not the 1:34.280 he made.

[Rob]

[Rob]

SS

cheers.

[Jose Lorca]

That Mercedes engine isn't so reliable now

Williams F1 Team @WilliamsF1Team
Car stopping on track was due to a high-mileage failure of the ICE #Bahrain

14:13 An engine problem has curtailed Force India's day early. The last 40 minutes of this test will run under floodlight as the circuit has just switched on its beams.

[fronaldo]

what tyre is Fernando on?

SS

[bonzo]

16:16 Similar trouble at Force India, which has also been forced to end its day early
16:16 Williams reports a "high-mileage failure of the ICE", presumably meaning the internal combustion engine...
Merc engines??

They don't care about some Ferrari. Same with F1Today. There were 3 cars on the track but they were updating the lap count only for Lewis...

What's an ICE?

[Jose Lorca]

What's an ICE?

Internal combustion engine

[Kristof_F40]

Both McLaren and Force India engine failure.....

[Kiwi Nick]

Today, it is cooler, less windy and the track is cleaner. I would expect to see times 0.2-0.5 faster than yesterday.

[giodap]

What's an ICE?

internal combustion engine

[Nand0Nand0]

McLaren, Force India and Williams - all with Mercedes ICE failures today.

[Kristof_F40]

Interesting development.. would love to know the mileage.. Engine needs to last almost 4 weekends..

I have told you before they hate us, Autosport love it when we fail. They are anti Ferrari.

[Forzi]

Merc out on SS. Get ready for this.

Betting on a 1:32:5

[shamim179]

McLaren, Force India and Williams - all with Mercedes ICE failures today.

Which might mean we'll be regularly getting podiums and wins in the races because one or some of the Mercedes powered cars that start ahead of us break down.
