Kyvat has a good chance at this one.
Hamilton isnt gonna win the Russian Gran Prix 3 times in a row, but he may get a podium finish along with Rosberg. Who is dominating the season so far, and the title favorite. Ferrari have been moving in the right direction lately so maybe we will see both of their drivers make a top 6 finish. As for the new boys in F1, HAAS. Romain Grosean started off pretty good by scoring points in the first two races, but scored 0 points in the last race. Cant wait until Sunday |

The track looks nice and modern but I've never really been a fan of it. it just lacks character to me. Looking forward to the race regardless.

Good thing Formula 1 is ruled by a tall, selfless man with high principles.

Ferrari tested their own version earlier this year called the Halo to a lot of criticism. I think the Redbull version looks 100x better -- but my preference is no windscreen at all. |

Ok, interesting. The Ferrari halo looks bizarre and seems a bit distracting for a driver.
I agree, hate to see the open air concept go away, but then I have to admit it seems more than lucky that someone hasn't been whacked on the noggen in some of these violent over the car excapades. Red Bull looks kinda cool... |

Red bulls wind shield will work good in the dry.. What happens when it's raining and mud/water is all over that screen.
Imagine following someone closely in the rain..

Where is this magical Ferrari speed? The media and the idiots on NBCsports need to just shut up and quit spreading all this false hope.
Nico's lap in Q2 was huge, then tv cut to a shot of Ferrari's garage and the look on all their faces was priceless. The gap between Ferrari and Mecedes seems to actually be growing as season goes on. Last edited by DieGrüneHölle; 04-30-2016 at 01:57 PM.. |

Kyvat is starting to lay case as CRASHTOR's replacement. RB was not too happy with what happened at all.

Pretty boring race after the fist lap. Will there be any further penalty for Kvyat?

Either this season will go down as the championship that was handed to Rosberg or it still has potential to become the biggest choke job in F1 history. Lets see if the bad luck continues for Lewis.
One DNF by Rosberg and win by Lewis, the championship will be back on. Quote:

Vettel got rekt.
I want to see if there are further penalties for Kvyat. He his Vettel TWICE! And as Ricciardo said in the interview, he doesn't know where Kvyat was going, they were already 3 wide Rosberg did a clean race and Hamilton again has engine issues now (potential for penalties) and i have a feeling Rosbergs mechanics are doing something to Hamiltons car lol |

What he said over the radio, and how he expressed it, was exactly what would be expected from a top driver who was gunning towards the front of the pack, and got rammed from behind - not once, but twice! - by the same idiot. The first hit caused damage that could be mitigated, but then the second blow completely took him out. So yeah, yelling WTF!? was the appropriate response.

On the bright side of things, with all the bad luck with Ferrari and Redbull, it allowed Renault, McLaren and Haas so score points. Although it doesn't bode well for the field that everyone up to 6th place was lapped. Yikes! |
