Ill say it again, heads need to roll at Ferrari, STUPID mistakes all year long and the car development was stagnant. I bet Kimi is red hot.

And Ricciardo back at it again with the shoe on the podium. At least he was kind enough to bring a Red Bull for Gerard Butler LOL

They need it, Texas has not been totally on target with their financial commitment to the track.

Next year with bigger tyres, more aero, louder engines, should make for a better show.

Strangely we have big interest in F1 here in oz, although other open wheel racing here is non existant , our v8 supercars ( gm holden / ford) is premier.

What is more popular nascar or indy cars?

This is a total over 4 days and includes team personel, media, fans,racoons and snakes!

If you get a four day pass that is counted as four attendances.

I was curious how they would handle the situation after Rosberg using the same line to keep his position and Hamilton blowing through there on the start and actually pulling a gap on second place...

Seb just lost his 3rd place as he got a 10 second penalty going wheel to wheel with Riciardo. I say that is BS as if Max would have given him the position like his team ordered it would have never happened. I say Max intentionally held Seb back allowing Riciardo to catch up.

If I was in Seb's shoes I would be yelling at Charlie face to face not over the radio.

Now it's getting a bit ridiculous. I saw nothing wrong with Vettel's duel with Ricciardo. Since they didn't penalize Hammy for his first turn shenanigans how can they, in good consious, penalize anyone else for the same move. It's damn 230mph to 70 to make that corner, that's why the runout is there in the first place.

Lastly time penalties should be handed out during the race unless it's the last lap. A drive through a penalty loop if possible...

Wow, 10 sec? Blink Can't Really say that Vettel did anything wrong. It was a left hand turn, he was going to make the turn. Ricciardo could've backed off. And if Max wouldn't have taken the shortcut this wouldn't have happened at all. Weak!

You thought he would get away with saying what he did to race control? No chance. Riciardo is my favourite out there but this decision absolutely stinks.

How about these LMP1 cars? Their technology is also pretty mind blowing:
