    Races were still boring as just one driver was always winning back then. Was mind numbing before any pitstops.

    Refuelling added an extra spice to the racing. Now it is based on how good your PU is and how long your rubber will last. Jeez.

    Refuelling would be perfect for next year. Now they have these **** tyres and gimmicks like DRS and ers, overtaking would be so much more than it was back when refuelling was legal!

    The Sauber has ran out of money and pace.

    Nope, he's done one stop less than Vettel and even if he pits again, he'll be behind... He's just a terrible driver who's lucky his car is so much better than the ones behind him

    Have Vettel, or Bottas had to do anything at all since the first corner? Genuinely can't think of any incident of them attacking anyone, or having to defend. Hamilton passed Kimi, but otherwise I can't think of anything remotely interesting involving the top 5.

    "People talk about how F1 is all about the cars. Max Verstappen is exposing the flaws in that theory all by himself."

    What by running 11th in a mediocre car? His pass on Perez was outstanding but the hype surrounding this guy is ridiculous, he was lucky not to be cleaned up by Nasr a minute ago and he's being praised for it.

    No they didn't. Ferrari years were as dull as this. At least there are two drivers involved. Back then it was Schuey or nothing.

    If this was the Ferrari years Rosberg would've been told to pull over by now.

    It's clearly not even a bad car. Arguably the 5th fastest on the grid, only behind the top 3 and Red Bull..
    Plus, his inexperience is showing and soon enough, he's going to cause a huge accident (again) which he will blame the other guy (again)

    One of the dullest seasons i can remember. The good news is it's nearly over the bad news is i don't really expect better from 2016.

    Yeah I read the timing wrong. I'm blaming this race.

    2016 will at least have Haas as another two cars in the mix, and I think they'll be in the midfield rather than dicing with Manor.
    And the Haas-Ferrari tie-up has potential to have created a very good 2016 Ferrari, so maybe they can challenge Mercedes more strongly.
