Jean Todt annoys me, I don't know where he gets his power from.

It seems all the tiny guys have the most power. We need someone like Arnie to come in and fuck shit up.

In other news, Vettels engine from Bahrain was a write off and he will be onto his second from
China.
Sauber can't afford to pay wages to their 300 staff.
The San Marino GP is back on the cards again at some point in the next few years.

Did anyone else notice there was a distinct lack of seating in their garage at Bahrain?
Times must be really tough when you need to cut back on fold up chairs

We need both Ferrari's performing this weekend. Vettel expiring on the formation lap in Bahrain was an enormous let down.

Pretty sure Lewis suffered plenty of issue's in 2014. Your selective memory seems to be blinding you.
Either way, it only bothers me in that I want Lewis to win at all costs. However, I do actually prefer watching F1 when the Mercs have to fight through the field, rather than just sail off into the distance. So in terms of being an F1 fan in general, I'm quite happy with him starting 6th or lower.

Monaco would be so boring if there wasn't any crashes or celebrities.

Yes I know it's only FP2, fuel load variables, etc etc but Ferrari 1-2 on the timesheet.

I am convinced Mer hold back until qualifying and race day - and even then have plenty in reserve
I feel they are at least 2 seconds quicker than everyone else but hold back incase the gap is so large the FIA step in and change rules to bring the gap down

I would normally call upon the tin foil hat at theories like this but I genuinely think that is possible.

I dunno, I think Q3 is genuine pace every time unless the championships are sewn up.
Generally though, yeah Merc can sandbag alot and will do during the race when they're cantering up front.

Mercedes really couldn't make it any more obvious, could they?
Ah well, at least the world's biggest pessimist didn't get pole.
