The Official Hungarian GP Thread 2014 *******Spoilers*****

[Derek Smith]

Last week we had LH at the back on a circuit where you can overtake. This week . . .

He'll have to pull something really special to get reasonable points, let alone the podium.

Raikk as well.

We need rain, I think, about 10 mins before the start, drying halfway through, and then rain again at the end.

Lewis will lose big big points tomorrow. This track is ste no way will we see a drive like Germany even with his superior car advantage.

Max Chilton would've won the WDC this year as Hamiltons teammate. Amazingly one sided bad luck.

Funniest thing I've read all day. And true.

Kimi - schoolboy errors from Ferrari. Piss poor team strategy again.

Kimi's lap was poor to be .7 slower than Alonso on the same tyre......... but even more a reason for the team to send him out on softer tyres for a second run.

I hear that Kimi wanted to run but the team told him he was safe! Unbelievable strategy calls from Ferrari.


Also, the conspiracy theory nutjobs are going to have a field day today - Hamilton's car magically BBQs itself before qually even gets going!

Low centre of gravity, good for racing.

Any info available to the cause of the fire? engine change???

Not bad luck, Karma.. *wink*

[Hungrymc]

Not a great circuit for having to try and come through the field either. Could be a frantic day.

he'll have a DRS, one car per three laps is more than doable for him to put it on podium again

I agree with the guys on sky that it's not an official conspiracy within merc but after so much bad luck I would start wondering about maybe one of the mechanics trying to influence the result, especially if it's such a crazy problem as a fuel leak as suggested. After all this happens all the time in football, players influenced by some rich bloke in the Far East .

And if it happens to one of your red cars tomorrow? Bad luck presumably? Wink

Seb is drinking out of a straw! They don't offer beverages in press conferences any more?

[entropy]

How long is Kimi's contract?

Judging by that clip of blanking out Ted, Ferrari need a new Team Principal ASAP

Ferrari seem to have gone from one extreme to the other as far as the Media is concerned. Stefano Dominicali could always be relied on for a cheery and candid interview. His successor looks like he can be relied upon to tell the media to get stuffed.

"No comment". Seriously?

Very, very unusual in current F1. Makes the situation worse, if anything.
