    I wonder if the Ferrari will try SS/S/S and I'm unsure why VES would not use the brand new SS?

    Indeed, if you can get the stint lengths then I'd go S, S then SS.. would make him very racey at the end of the race.

    Interesting in the interview with Brundle that Lewis can't bring himself to say that Rosberg deserves it if he wins the title.

    Now isn't the time for thinking about it I wouldn't say. As and when he loses he will have the opportunity to be gracious. For now, he has to carry on believing that he can win it.

    Like he's going to say yes. He believes he's better than Roberg and should be beating him. He's not going to admit Roberg has out done him at this point , they're still in a fight. For now at least.

    So, how many spots will Hamilton drop off the start line today?

    I tend not to invest to much in grand prix these days. Hamilton will probably have a failure and the rest will finish 2 by 2.

    I was hoping for better from Haas this weekend. Long way to go though.

    Come on Verstappen, have a good old go at Rosberg. That would make things interesting.

    So this one looks like Hamilton has it sewn up and it's all about rosberg taking 2nd.

    I know right now Red bull are close but I think it's going to be a fall away at each pitstop now

    He will burn his tyres out that's all. It would be fun though.

    Max "not here to finish 4th"

    Well done kid but he does need end of the race to be right not now.

    Rosberg is just hunting Ricciardo now.

    This stop is now crucial. Rosberg v Ricciardo for 2nd place.
