Austrian GP 2017 - Practice & Qualifying

If it rains, I doubt Kimi will finish atleast.
Generally he's not good on wet track.

When i took a break from f1 and returned to see everyone calling Kimi the iceman, i first thought that he mastered the harshest water conditions or something. That Brazil crash last year was scary

[nani_s23]

Yup

When I see weather forecast for today's race, few websites shows low % chance of rain.
I didn't see anywhere rain is inevitable.

He spins his car on wet track conditions.

Mika would be a classy world champion, the way they pretend Hamilton is a saint is nauseating

[Christopher]

[Christopher]

The problem for leclerc is im struggling to see how he get into f1 with the lack of seats available

[nani_s23]

He can join Ferrari B team. Also there are couple of more teams joining by 2019

[nani_s23]

We need a wet track master driver just like MS.

[Christopher]

Why would haas get rid of grosjean or kmag when there both scoring consistent points

[jgonzalesm6]

2018 will be interesting with regards to ending contracts in F1...you have Leclerc for sure, then Latifi, Markelov....

I read this somewhere not to far back in the timeline but teams having a 3rd F1 car, that would open up some seats for the backmarker teams.

[flam147]

Good to Lewis with a grid spot penalty due to the gearbox change. Let's see if it makes a difference in the race.

Crews were working on curves 9 and 10 after FP due to drivers complaining they were too high and some teams sustained damage underneath the cars.

i heard a rumour that Black and Decker have secured a contract for 2018 to supply lawn mower blades for under the cars , so when they go on the grass can give it a little cut. cost cutting measure for the cirquits

maybe but i would rather have more teams join the sport. Silly season will be interesting next year apart from the yearly lewis to ferrari rumours

The BBC (along with SkyF1) are fanatical Hamilton fanboys, quite frankly it makes me sick at times and I'm English!

for now until the concorde agreement in 2020 when the new formula gets introduced, I don't see anyone coming in between now and then as much as I would like to see that

happen due to this current formula being so freakin expensive with regards to the hybrid PU. Several teams have shown up to discuss a possible entry given said new formula but

thats just it....its all talk for now. So for the meantime, we might have a back log of up-and-coming drivers. Yeah, Pierre Gasly for now is a test driver for RedBull and is a

talented driver(F2) but one can only wait so long.
