Probably best turnout for Lewis. Just follow NR home tomorrow.

Sorry if this had been covered. How come Red Bull seem to be running sponsorship from Singha this race?
No problem advertising cat's piss.

Ok, my mistake.
So I wonder why Williams felt the need to remove not just the Martin logo but also the reed stripe? Seems odd...

Second is arguably as good as first for Lewis. Less chance of being taken out by Rosberg at turn one. Hopefully he'll just follow Rosberg home.

Not sure what's happened in qualifying with him this year though.

Great lap again by Nico, he's been amazing in qualifying. Looked like Lewis might be starting 3rd at one point.

What does he want his engineer to do...run alongside and attempt to kiss his ass?

That was some great coverage. Sky have been exemplary this year.

Right, I need to go out and do some shopping and get some fresh air, before getting back in front of the telly again for Strictly. smile

Hamilton over drove that a bit. But P2 is enough.

The Mercs will be 1 second a lap quicker in race trim.

Lewis can cruise this if he's sensible.

Until fairly recently, in Russia drinks below a certain ABV weren't considered alcoholic. Which meant that beer was classified as a soft drink. smile

Maybe they have a similar rule about advertising alcohol in Abu Dhabi?

I think Toto just suggested Lewis has focused his set up more on race pace than qualifying. I wonder if this has been a trend this year, Nico has been stunning in qualifying but seems to have never had the pace of Lewis in the race?

IMO Lewis is better positioned in second as it doesn't give Rosberg a chance to dive in to a corner and take him out. Damon Hill was just saying that Rosberg is fighting to the end....well he can fight all he wants but all Lewis has to do is drive at 90%, finish second and still be champion.

You would never, ever see Lewis say he wished a Williams had got between them if the roles were reversed. And people say Lewis is a dick...

Referring to the press conference.
