    Be interesting to see and compare how fast kimi magnussen and LH make their way through the field.


    LH will be hampered by magnussen starting in the pit lane smack bam in front of him

    Think kimi may work his way up to 12 or so max

    Hoping for a few safety cars

    Hope vettel goes balls in and attacks nico at turn 1 - bad straight line speed (though most cars seem to be similar at the start so who knows). Rosberg off into clean air and a leisurely stroll to the finish. Perhaps that's why I hate him so much. I see him as a spoilt and undeserving child
    Even if that may not be an image he deserves or a fair assessment

    He may have had an easier start in life (as per Lewis, who thinks that Rosberg was fed food with gold flakes on his personal yacht by a harem of scantily clad women caretakers), I don't find him have that image at all. He seems quite down to earth and less ''throw-toys-out-of-pram-prone'' than almost all others.

    Quite the contrary, Hamilton, who grew up in the slums in a house valued at only a million pounds, and once fell asleep on his dads sofa, acts like a spoiled **** at almost every conceivable moment.

    Lewis Hamilton's parents separated when he was two, as a result of this he lived with his mother and half-sisters Nicola and Samantha till he was 12 then later his dad.

    Hams father told him that he would support his racing career as long as he worked hard at school.
    Supporting his son became problematic, which caused him to take redundancy from his position as an IT Manager and became a contractor. He was sometimes employed in up to three jobs at a time, while still managing to find enough time to attend all Hamilton's races. He later set up his own computer company as well as working as a full-time manager for Hamilton.

    Doesn't sound to me like it was the lap of luxury.

    From what I read I got the impression that they didn't get such a house until he was older (late teens maybe).


    I don't know where everyone gets this impression that rosberg isn't a whinger. He's basically had a dream season so far. As I've said before, he cracked so easily when hamilton won 4 in a row fair and square. Whines over radio asking how to drive etc. Hamilton has taken everything so graciously aside from monaco. I don't understand how you or anyone can have that perception of him anymore.


    Anyway; race result predictions for all the main players:

    1 nico
    2 vettel
    3 ricciardo
    4 bottas
    5 lewis (hoping)
    6 alonso
    7 massa
    8 kyvat
    9 hulk
    10 hoping kimi but doubt it

    Very knowledgeable. Personally I think LH should get his dad as manager. Sad how he fired him

    Steve...A contractor can earn a lot of money as I'm sure you're aware. We keep being hurled that his dad worked 3 jobs, but they always make it seem like he worked at Mcdonalds, a house keeper and binman.

    He seemed like he worked hard enough but I think it they where far from scraping the bottom or fight over the last grain of rice. Mclaren helping out since he was 11 surely made things a lot easier.

    My point more was that Toil dislikes Rosberg because he is spoiled, which I find odd because I haven't seen Rosberg ever behaving as a spoiled child. Like him or not, Hamilton has had his moments of behaving like a spoiled person (as have many others).

    Yes not disagreeing Bas, however it's obvious who had the luxury of being able to say, money was no object.

    Ham got lucky when his fortunes changed when Ron D took him under his wing, but full marks to him, he saw the potential in the 10 year old lad.

    I don't think that asking for advice/suggestions on how to manage the car better or get closer to Hamilton is whining.

    After years of being friends, Hamilton started a fire early in the season claiming they're not friends (whether this was mind games or not, I don't know). Then, before Monaco, added fuel to the fire by claiming he's hungrier and all that...Then the claims that Rosberg screwed him over.

    Even at the Sutil spin last week, when asked why he thought the SC wasn't deployed, he hinted at a conspiracy theory by saying ''I think you know why''. And now with his car on fire, he's claiming this is something else than bad luck.

    That's not taking it gracious.

    I appreciate you supporting Ham, but your hatred for Rosberg clouds your judgement at almost every opportunity.

    My picks:

    1ST: Rosberg
    2ND: Bottas
    3RD: Vettel
    4TH: Ricciardo
    5TH: Alonso
    6TH: Massa
    7TH: Hamilton
    8TH: Button
    9TH: Hulkenberg
    10TH: Raikkonen


    Very difficult to place Hamilton. If it rains heavier I can see him 4th or even podium.

    Yes!

    But only a while after the start :D.

    Alhough I will assume that Ferrari will send their drivers out on the wrong tire or call them into the pit too late/early.

    One would say that Ferrari should then change the setup on Kimi's car too and let him start from the pitlane but I doubt they have enough brain capacity to work that out.
