    The thought crossed my mind, but as all teams are having different issues, either the engine is an absolute dog, or the problems are arising from how it's installed. That'll vary from car-to-car, so solutions on the Red Bull might not translate perfectly to the Lotus.

    Is the track still wet? Those times don't seem far off yesterday's dry times?

    Commentary siad it wasn't sounding too healthy as it crossed the line, but surely they would have shut it down as the telemetary would have shown up something wrong if that were the case.

    LOL, nice deflection. But here is what Autosport says about the broken Mercedes engine in the Force India

    13:46 The Force India comes by the pits not sounding quite as healthy as it was.

    and

    13:47 Perez has stopped at Turn 1, so we've got a red flag. Small bit of smoke coming out the back too.

    Well you can clearly see smoke at the front of the car as well as the middle plus I'm not following Autosport so I cant read what they know.
