They were. They were much worse.

All the plugs sparking? Says the bloke in Halfords.

WTF? Hammer time and don't ask questions???

It has to be for a precautionary stop. Tyre problems? Hydraulics (they are allowed to top that up)?

[swisstoni]

Blimey surely he can nurse it from here ....

His retirement explains that!

[Drive Blind]

I'm sure I remember weekends of total domination by Schumacher. Fastest in all practices, qualified on pole, lead from start to finish unchallenged and there wasn't even any mid field action to compensate. Total procession.

And with that, Britney is out. That old merc unit has breahted its last. Rosberg has been very unlucky this weekend. Poor chap.

[Speed_Demon]

Poof goes rosberg!

[FourWheelDrift]

Mercedes were probably looking at the wrong telemetry

[PDP76]

That's explains hammertime, they must have known nicos car was going to blow.

[VolvoT5]

Even Hamilton fans have got to feel a bit sorry for Rosberg this weekend..... problem after problem through no fault of his own he is basically out of the championship now.

[Otispunkmeyer]

Perhaps that what they were telling Hamilton to go faster for. Not because of his car, bug because of impending grenade action on rosbergs causing a safety car.
