2017 Spanish Grand Prix

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Time for the next grand prix as the series finally comes to Europe for the Spanish Grand Prix. Will be interesting to see how Hamilton runs after a poor performance in Russia.
Go Ricciardo and Ferrari !!!.

Larger size names and numbers for cars starting this weekend in Spain:

 

[donthaveanickname]

Hamilton wins the pole AND ALONSO QUALIFIES 7TH!!!
He might have a chance to score points tomorrow if the car can stand the whole race.

 

[Hotrod]

These guys are so close. It may all come down
to the drag race at the start going in to 1. That's what I like about
F1, its such an exacting sport with zero room for error from
the whole team.

Haas looked promising there for a minute. Hope for a top 10.
Look at that , an Alonso smile! Good for him. Made it to Q3.

 

[Doc Austin]

Alonso is going to run more miles at Indy that he's going to get all year in F1!

 

[FLRacingFan]

Vettel's starts are top tier.

 

[Hotrod]

There we go Haas. Both in the top 10 early.

Vettel wins the drag race at the start. That should do it.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Vettel! Love seeing him up in the lead, hell of a start

 

[FLRacingFan]

Incredible move by Vettel. His race might be ****** though with all of that time wasted.

 

[Hotrod]

Yeah - the ending of this race is going to be awesome.
F1 strategy at its best.

I just had a frightening thought. Mikey and DW replacing Hobbs and Machett.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Looks like Daniel is finally going to get a podium

 

[Marcingak]

Vettel's fast on those Medium tires.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Hamilton has this in the bag, he will find a way to make those tires last, but I have been wrong before

 

[Hotrod]

Vettel needs to hammer down the rest of the race
and make Hamilton wear down the tires. I could not
be any sicker of these medicine commercials.

Nice piece of camera work following the kid in the Kimi hat.

 

[FLRacingFan]

I'm surprised they didn't bring Seb in for new softs.

 

[Marcingak]

I'm surprised they didn't keep Hamilton on Medium tires for the rest of the race lol

 

[Hotrod]

Hamilton has this game of chase in the bag.
Be interesting to see what kind of podium fun we will have.

Heartbreak for Mags. Kinda his fault for hitting Kvyat.

Good for all the podium finishers! Haas in the points ! woohoo!

 

[Kiante]

Force India are really impressive.

Ocon and Perez have been next to each other every weekend so far.

Its kind of embarrassing that Massa caught and passed Stroll after his puncture.

 

[Yogisd1]

I just had a frightening thought. Mikey and DW replacing Hobbs and Machett.

Bite your tongue.

Pretty cool. Lucky kid! It says the video is unavailable in my region (US) but I found another video on the F1 website.

[Reck]

I saw that in the Sky Sports feed. They showed the crying kid with Kimmi watching the race. LOL

I dont like it when teams play the protector. Bottas really hindered Vettel but at least Hamilton still had to earn it the hard way so no big deal after all.

 

[donthaveanickname]

Force India are really impressive.

Ocon and Perez have been next to each other every weekend so far.

They have been pretty good all year but I wouldn't say they have been specially impressive yesterday. Both cars were lapped and got 4th and 5th mainly because Verstaapen, Räikkönen and Bottas retired.

Great race, btw. Best Spanish GP in a while, even better than 2016, I'd say.
Wehrlein was the Man of the race, IMHO.
