    So a very bad performance for Rosberg and he still got 2nd. This will be decided on reliability.

    Not really when you consider how much testing Mercedes had and how very limited Red Bull had.

    Good response from Rosberg in the awful podium interviews.

    What a crock that "Race" was. Pathetic.

    Well we also can't ignore the poor start he had being a factor as well being behind Vettel in the first place.

    Maybe not the best idea but seems wrong that rosberg still leads the championship whilst being dominated by his team mate! Doesn't sit well with me.

    I tend to agree, because Hamilton is very much in control at the moment. Even at this stage it's difficult to imagine anyone else winning the championship.

    It's a reflection of the points being designed to reward reliability/consistency though and that DNF is hurting Hamilton. But you would expect/hope that over the course of a season mechanical failures will even each other out.

    We're only 4 races in and Lewis didn't finish one of them. Over the season, so long as he stays clear of trouble, he'll be miles ahead of Rosberg.

    Hopefully for Hamilton reliability stays good going forward but with his luck in previous seasons I'd be nervous if I was him!

    Baring any major mistake or performance increase by Rosberg Hamilton could have a shot on Sebs 9 race streak.

    Manny or BLS, can you hurry up and finish the Not606 race? We've all been waiting with our lounge chairs on the finish line for ages :p

    Catalunya rarely throws up classic races so there's a distinct possibility of another borefest! Mind you we can't have classic races like Bahrain every time!

    Unless Rosberg crumbles, I don't see that happening.

    Utter snoozefest, don't think much of note happened beyond the first corner.

    Don't think Ricciardo would have had the straight line speed to make the podium, and Alonso seemed to have something in hand.

    Impressed with the near-bulletproof reliabilitywe're seeing already, from everyone but Lotus and perhaps Sauber.

    But you could argue that he already has crumbled?

    Seb will be doing extra time in the simulator gym to solve his problems.
