The 'got it right at last' Abu Dhabi Grand Prix chat & prediction

@ 5 minutes is worth a look . THAT interviewer is back , so they are already giggling , but Seb's response to the question

AND at about 5 minutes 10 seconds , look at the faces of the other people . In particular Sabine ( Seb's press lady )

Fine by me in this instance


* I also agree 100% with Daniels reply .

 

I wondered why people started giggling, is he the guy that asked a question so long everyone had forgotten what it was by the time he'd finished asking it?

 

Yes !


This is him

** Though in fairness to the Drivers , they had not forgotten the question , they just wanted to make the poor bugger suffer **

 

Slippery, innit? Cars sliding all over the place on this dust.

 

Williams changed their livery, guessing that has to do with alcohol but I don't remember it changing in Bahrain.

 

Gone for Bottas .

 

Balls. Forgot to vote. Busy week here with Thanksgiving and all that.

Can I take a late stab and go for Vettel somehow pulling it out of the bag?

 

Hamilton will win but I'm going for Bottas because hardly anyone else is.

 

Balls, I missed the poll. I had a a good excuse, I was fixing my sister in law's dishwasher. Can I be allowed a late vote. Please!!

 

Only if you vote Hamilton

 

I'll happily vote Hamilton because he will almost certainly win IMO.

While I understand that asking to vote for the pole sitter after qualifying is a bit of an ask, I genuinely don't think he'll win, and my reason for wanting to vote for him is because an unlikely win for him would promote me in the prediction championship, and a win for Hamilton wouldn't as everyone else has gone for him.

But it's fine, a vote for Hamilton is fine for me as I won't lose any places either. Do as you will!

 

Hamilton won't win. He'll crash at the first corner with Vettel and Verstappen and start the winter of hell for anyone intending to go on the internet until march.

 

If you missed the vote, but name your preferred driver before the GP, I can't see any reason why you cannot vote, I nearly forgot myself.

went for Hamilton myself, he's got and upgraded PU with only 1 gp on it, I don;t think Bottas can maintain his pace lap on lap.

 

Thanks Ern.

I don’t think Bottas will win either, it’s a tactical vote with an eye on the prediction championship. No point in voting the same way as everyone else.

Bottas just needs Hamilton to be as good as his word about getting Merc a 1-2 and being happy to finish 2nd. Admittedly that could quickly evaporate but he might help protect Bottas from Vettel to ensure 2nd in the championship for him. He can do that best by staying in 2nd and letting Bottas win.

 

Unless Hamilton gets it in the first corner I'd say Bottas will win. Championship is won so it works in Hamilton's favour to not rock the boat so things are easier next year.
We saw in Hungary that he can oddly be a team player when the wind is blowing in the right direction on the 9th half moon of the celestial cycle.

 

nice from Romain.

"turn 9 in 2nd gear" WTF? blatant coaching.

 

Don’t be silly Lewis.

 

Sunday afternoon snoozefest.......

 

One day someone will crash in that tunnel. It was nearly today.
