    yep and rear wheels keep spinning. Maybe brake by wire failure of some sorts. On the onboard you can see how the car has little interest in slowing down.

    Edit: Mercedes says the car was 100%, it was Nicole stuffing it up.

    Hope so for you guys. Used to have Buxton for GP2, always hyped anyone that did remotely well, and hated on the others. It became worse when he got the bump up to F1; became even more opinionated. Unlikeable chap.

    Hahaha.

    Ricciardo on a lap, Nasr comes out ahead of him in the pit, blocks Ricci with DRS etc. Ricci complains, his engineer ''yep, saw that...we do have to remember, it IS Nasr we're talking about'' :D.

    Bit of a mixed bag so far P2.Nicole fastest but some brake problems maybe.Lewis didn't get a decent lap together after the track rubbered in a bit after going wide several times,then hydraulic trouble.

    Kimi looking good,with Seb not too happy with the balance.

    Max and Ricci in with a shout for sure.

    +1

    I'd be surprised if Kimi does beat Seb here. Seb is MIGHTY around this track.

    Weather forecast is for morning/early afternoon showers next 2 days...so in theory should be dry for qualy and race.
