2017 Chinese Grand Prix

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Time for the 2nd grand prix of the year at a track I have always liked. It Will be interesting to see if this will be a better race than Australia.
Go Riccardo and Ferrari !!!

On this day 12 years ago, Alonso wins in Bahrain

Wehrlein will miss China too and will be replaced by Giovinazzi again.

Looks like it's going to be a rain race or at worst a wet race. Should be interesting

Lights out at 2 AM Eastern

Wow just finished watching quals replay. These qualifying sessions are turning out to be better than the races.

Yep, I wonder with the new aero if the spray will be worse.

 

[Reck]

That would actually be helpful to Hamilton. Actually I think rain is the only way he wins this race.

Those Ferraris are furiously fast this year. Geez

 

[DUN24]

I'ma try and do this one live. Fuggit I will sleep in the afterlife.

 

[Reck]

So much for rain. Track is drying fast.

 

[Reck]

Vettel was definitely out of his box on that start.

 

[Kiante]

Giovanazzi out, again.

Damn that's not good for Sauber, they cannot afford too many wrecked cars.

They might have to rebuild that monocoque before the next race at Bahrain. Bad timing for a fly-away.

 

[Reck]

Wild start, indeed.

 

[DUN24]

Gio is really not doing himself any favors.

 

[Kiante]

Gio is really not doing himself any favors.

I think he has done well considering his situation, look at Stroll, he has had more preparation than any rookie in a long time and is struggling quite a bit.

Stroll qualified damn well yesterday. Got taken out today. I hear ya though.

Edit: Stroll took himself out today nvm


Bottas spins under yellow? Dafuq

 

[Kiante]

Bottas spun.

Slowly turning into Hekki Kovalinen...

 

[Reck]

Am I the only one who gets sick of these broadcasters slubbering all over Verstappen?

We get it, he's a fast kid. Quit jizzing your pants.

 

[Kiante]

This race is done, the track is drying.

Lewis is pulling away quick.

 

[FLRacingFan]

I figured to give these cars a chance on a much bigger track like China. Nope, they still suck. And look at that, McLaren still suck too.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Ferrari need to get on the button and tell Kimi to get the **** out the way and let Vettel have a shot.


Ah, there we go.

 

[Reck]

Kvyat needs to go. He's had too many chances and he's come empty.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Vettel blows past Ricciardo in a lap-and-a-half. Kimi is useless. So much wasted time.


And finally an interesting pass, I might add.

 

[Kiante]

Vettel is flying.

 

[Reck]

Bottas has made a good comeback.

 

[Kiante]

David Hobbs is a savage.

 

[FLRacingFan]

How tf did Grosjean make that stick?

 

[Reck]

Obviously this is Vettel's year. He's catching all the breaks in the world.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Choke.

 

[Kiante]

Choke.

Verstappen?

 

[Reck]

Bottas with a massive lock up.

 

[Reck]

Alonso's fall from grace has not been pretty.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Verstappen?

Yeah.

Vettel spooked him.

 

[Kiante]

Mclaren's fall from grace has not been pretty.

FTFY

Alonso pushed like an animal all weekend... With no result, driveshaft is gone.

 

[Reck]

Holy **** I thought that was Hamilton pitting. Scared the **** outta me. LOL

 

[Reck]

Holy sh!t I thought that was Hamilton pitting. Scared the sh!t outta me. LOL

Oh **** so what does this mean? Is Vettel pitting? He has fresher tires.
