2014 F1 ETIHAD AIRWAYS ABU DHABI GRAND PRIX: RACE ***SPOILERS***

thats a shame for bottas in terms of the battle with alonso and vettel. looks like alonso may sneak in to 4th in championship if he can keep bottas behind

 

Bottas was behind Nico on the grid...

 

What a great replay of start, Lewis says bye bye Rosberg who didn't know what was the clean vs dirty side of circuit. Seems a bit strange comment by Rosberg yesterday.

 

What!! can you actually translate that.

 

alonso dispatches kimi already

 

I'm good with Lewis bringing this thing home, but it should be stated that Lewis pulled the same crap on Nico that Vettel put on Webber last year in Malaysia with the whole 'multi 21' engine setting fiasco, only it wasn't publicized and Nico never said a word. Lewis was guilty of being specifically told to change his power train setting which Nico did but Lewis refused. I know in Bahrain and a couple other races early in the season this was indeed the case. Why it was never brought to light we will never know.

 

ALO gets RAi

 

LOL! Kimi sitting duck! Good luck next year lol!

 

interesting strategy

 

will ham eek out the supersoft stint a few laps since he has track position? will realy make rosberg suffer who has 1.5 lap older tires

 

Why bother

 

ALO who?

 

Didnt matter he had a terrible start

 

Looks like kimi has some sort of power issue?

 

Good point, exactly.

 

At least the Ferrari teammate has been a safe pair of hands. I can't imagine how much cashflow Ferrari saved simply by not having to repair Massa's car every weekend.

 

i think rosbergs tires may have just gone off a little. 1.8 sec

 

7 lap stints?

 

ham rosberg gap +4 tenths that lap. rosy tire gone for sure

 

Lol

 

Fred is dead in the water it seems....wonder if Vettel ...is thinking twice

 

Interesting.....

"Everyone's against me. I'm just a poor boy from the 'hood". Blah, blah.....

Having said that, if it wasn't for our new buddy here I'd be quite happy for him to take it.

All joking aside, overall he probably deserves it most. I've really got nothing against the guy, it's some of his fans that piss me off is all.

 

lol

Rai and Vet have a pretty similar style of driving so fingers crossed for next year that they get the chassis right, an area where kimi has been working on a LOT this year for 2015.

 

Hahaha that depends on which side of the fence your sittin on T..
