Most use some element of it but some are more advanced than others. RBR, Mercedes, McLaren, Ferrari, Marussia, Williams and I suspect Torro Rosso (due to RBR links) all have it. Rumour has it FI will be voting against the delay as they don't use it. Caterham probably don't have it either, not sure about Sauber.

Given most the top teams run it, I wouldn't expect wholesale changes, Mercedes should still be a fair bit ahead. Might close the gap up a bit however, which wouldn't exactly be a bad thing. Could do with the others a bit closer to take points off Nico. Hopefully Lewis has got all his dodgy quali sessions out the way now

Indeed, remind me very much of the Porsche super cup wheels. At Monza they were just stacked up after the event in a public area so you could go touch them and peel bits of rubber off

It's sounding like his personal sponsors might be pulling the plug, which makes sense - as Sutil might aswell not have existed this season in terms of TV coverage.

Not sure if it will be actually mid season or not, he'll do his home race I'm sure but wonder if they'll drop him during the break.

I've just seen the crash on the SkySports website. Nasty. He sounded shaken on the team radio, which can be fully expected by the look of the impact. I wonder how much this sort of stuff dents the overall confidence of the drivers through their careers?

Interesting to hear that Hamilton has different brakes to Rosberg and that Rosberg could have no had the same problem as it's a different compound

Didn't know they used different brake manufacturers in the same team. Interesting! Was a bit worrying when he hit the barrier, some serious crashes this year (not caused by Maldanado/Gutiurez) with Perez/Massa/Kimi and now Lewis! Glad to see all are fine after though.

Fucking Ferrari though

Kimi out in q2, 12th.. Car looked totally undriveble, had a shit hot lap, locked up and messed up second to last corner also.

Alonso made it to Q3 but a slightly better 7th.

Just not anywhere near where they need to be. That car is a POS

Apparently Merc are considering running the other brakes on Hamiltons but if they do he starts from the pit lane!
