I figured we would try having a little bench racing thread for each GP and see how it goes.

The cars hit the track for Practice session 1 in about 10min.

The Sky Sports stream is up and running. Im watching in HD on mma-tv.net and the pre race stuff is getting me pretty pumped. Ive been a little under the weather the last couple days, hopefully i can forget about it for the next couple hours. Whistling

P1 times, not a lot of laps run, i figured more teams would want to get out and put in some good mileage. P2 will heat up.

Speed trap times, i bet Seb doesnt mind going from one of the slowest straight line cars, to the fastest, lets just hope they have the downforce

The Toro Rosso's sure looks strong (i know its early) but still sitting 4th and 6th is very impressive.

NBCSN shows P1 delayed, but P2 will be live. I was watching on a UK Stream.

Sky Sports pre show is already on, Practice session 3 starts in 45min. (will air delayed on NBCSN at 9:30pm PST followed by live qualifying)

Ricciardo has a huge task in P3 after missing all of P2, same with Massa.

Gonna be an exciting night, F1 quali's is the best format in all of racing!

Im not sure of the exact rule, but that is pretty tame for Seb.
3/13/2015 10:35pm
Ive been lagging, he was winning in the Redbull Infiniti and and now is the top of the chart with the Ferrari.

Did he think the Redbull car was no longer good, or the Ferrari could be better again, ALA Schumachers era?

Or did he just want to aggravate Kimi?

In the most simple sense, Seb is fulfilling a childhood dream, and it was the right time.
3/13/2015 11:05pm
Didnt he already say he would pay any fines and wasnt going to stop changing it?

Jesus Christ....if your last name isn't Hamilton or Rosberg......you're way off the pace. This aint looking good for any other team out there except the Merc. Pretty surprised by that young dude Verstappen though !

Bottas just went .5 faster than Seb did in practice, the Williams might have a beat on Ferrari. That was touted to be the battle of the season for "best of the rest"
