Now we're back to high DF again it looks as if Ferrari are going to struggle. Not looking good for Alonso's already struggling title challenge. The interesting question now will be will Mercedes take 2nd place from Ferrari. I am in the Yes camp.

Well, looks like Vettel has 2013 in the bag. The Ferrari was looking like a real handful today, and the only real competitor now is Lewis. Somehow I can't see that he'll be able to make up the pace unless he snags pole, which I highly doubt.

It's too early to hand the title to Vettel yet. Remember the gear box worries of Monza? If I'm not entirely mistaken the same gear box is used for the Singapore GP.

Also I can imagine both Mercedes on the front row come qualifying.

I'm sort of in the middle here; I reckon Alonso will finish 2nd in the drivers title, but Mercedes will overtake Ferrari in the constructors title.

i think the same. alonso is too far ahead and massa is forbidden to finish in front of him, even if he qualifies better. and while hamilton has a bit of an edge over rosberg, there could be races where rosberg is faster, taking points away from hamilton.

 

besides that p1 in wcc and wdc is pretty much done i say. :)

It will probably end up depending on whether Rosberg comes back and starts taking points off Lewis again.

I do have a life away from the computer sometimes, yes.

 

Barring technical issues the race is Vettel's to lose. Although - who knows what happens with Grosjean right behind him?

reject of the race - like always: mark webber. not even his own car likes him :rofl:

 

How the hell was it his fault that his car had a Mechanical failure?

 

Anyhow, I think Mercedes will be scratching their heads, finishing nearly a minute off with a safety car intervention. They seem to have lost a lot of ground since the summer break, both in quali and on long runs.

Is official, Di Resta is evokes the same hate from me as Hamilton did early in his career. Except that Hamilton is a top 4 driver on the grid back then. Muttered "shame" soon as I saw him go off, and I don't think he said anything "ballsy" or "gutsy" all weekend. 

 

Mercedes knows exactly what went wrong to be honest. Vettel was ridiculously fast, Webber even though he generally had a good race he was nowhere as fast Vettel in any clean air, Red Bull is a rocket on wheels. They also couldn't or didn't risk the going as long as Alonso or Kimi. I think when everything is added together, Kimi was the man of the race.

    • Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system 2-pack is 27% off

      By cork1958 · Posted

      Personally, I think these things are way over rated and way over priced, even at this price. I recently had Frontier Fiber installed with 2 of these devices and although they worked, I switched back to my own router and AP setup and get way better consistency on wireless speed than with Eeros. Wired speed seems to be more consistent also. Will be returning Eeros soon. I had told Frontier I didn't want them to begin with.
    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By tboggs13 · Posted

      Yes, exactly what I have been thinking. Don't make the context menu simpler, make it smarter to learn what I actually use. And then, give me the ability to pin settings that I rarely use but need forget where they are.

    • Here's how to watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and what to expect from the 2-hour showcase

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Here's how to watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and what to expect from the 2-hour showcase by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The June game showcase schedule is packed, and with the Sony event already behind us, it's time for the next major presentation to come in swinging. Later today, Geoff Keighley will be bringing the 2026 edition of Summer Game Fest live from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California. For anyone wanting to tune in online, the Summer Game Fest showcase livestream will be kicking off at 2 PM PT | 5 PM ET | 10 PM BST later today, June 5. The jam-packed show is slated to run for about two hours, with platforms like YouTube (4K at 60FPS), Twitch, Facebook, or X being available for catching it. Like in previous years, separate streams featuring American Sign Language and Descriptive Audio are available on YouTube as well. Keighley has only dropped a few teasers about what gaming fans can expect to see at the show. This includes a new look at Star Wars Zero Company from EA, a major announcement from Guild Wars developer ArenaNet, more Clutch gameplay, and some sort of Sega presence. As for fan expectations, there is hype building about a Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 reveal here, and we might see new details about announced games like Alien Isolation 2 as well. If you want even more games, keep in mind that right after the main kickoff event, the Day of the Devs showcase will begin its own festivities at 4 pm PT | 7 pm ET. This is focused entirely on upcoming indie games. Following this, the next major games showcase is slated to happen on June 7. Here, Microsoft is bringing the big guns with its Xbox Games Showcase and Gears of War E-Day Direct. Check out the full calendar for all of the June events over here.
