    These rules are ****ing retarted. Don't inform drivers of reliability issues or you'll get a penalty.

    What did Vettel call the rule? Pretty accurate whatever it was.

    FIA loves safety, look how much they are doing to protect drivers! Encouraging teams to not tell drivers they have brake problems etc. Disgusting rule, just let them race ffs!

    Yes, this is what the fans want. A pointless drive through penalty is so much better than having to hear a driver being told he has an issue.

    Well done Formula 1, well done.

    Button quite rightly not happy with what is safety issue (no brakes) vs telling driver how to drive! Stupid FIA.

    this is all over.

    first corner race. Lewis has won and rosberg did well to box riccardo using hamilton to get 2nd.

    this is an eek out a one stopper race thats boring.... you can't just make the cars look nicer you have got to fix this stuff.. bring back refuelling i say.

    Really need Rosberg to get close to Hamilton here and for them to start giving Toto some worries!

    I think the stewards should start punishing the marshals, giving all those yellow flags to let the drivers know there is an issue ahead.

    Down with the driver coaching!!!!!!

    Hamilton is holding it at 1 second. Is he just bluffing to have an excuse to back Rosberg up? It's a bit suspect that he can slow him yet keep him out of DRS.

    I wonder if red Bull were allowed to tell Max to preserve his tyres he wouldn't have been pushing Kimi quite as hard?

    Well Ricciardo has just made Mercedes threat pointless, will Mercedes bite and pit. Hamilton about to show how slow he was driving?

    Well Mercedes have a problem here, Vestappen is still sitting there in the way if they pit now.

    I wonder if Red Bull are trying to make merc stop for tyres knowing that Merc may not be able to get to the end on them. Thus making Merc stop again where Red Bull can get to the end on the tyres they now have?

    So yes... bluffing. Look out for Rosberg face at the end if Hamilton stays in front.
