It’s easy to forget how good he looked in the Williams (when it was a reasonably front-running car for a few years…), and how excited we were to see him graduate to the Mercedes.

I watch races on my phone frequently.

It’s much higher resolution than the biggest of Bernie’s CRTs. I don’t have an issue identifying cars or reading the timing tower.

Ecclestone is, thankfully, irrelevant.

9pm means I stand a chance of watching the highlights “live” IYSWIM.

6.30 is bang in the middle of dinner & bedtime, so I have to wait until it becomes available on All4 some number of hours later.

The reason they’re doing this is noise restrictions. They’re only allowed two day’s running at the track. It’s not something they’re just doing to see whether or not it’s fun.

Slowing down to 49kph, after the corner (slowing down more than 20kmh during the corner), is that within the rules? It’s really isn’t, is it?

Not apportioning blame to him, but I don’t understand why Rosberg didn’t stay further left.

Gargh, silly autocomplete. LapTIME :-p

The unanswerable question – how much of the laptop drop was caused by the loss of the blown diffuser?

So the FIA-sanctioned series are worth more than others?

How odd. Probably just a mistake. I’m sure they’ll sort it soon.
