I'm afraid the long straights are going to hurt us as Mercedes tends to have an issue with straights these last few races. Also the traction could be a problem. I expect Sauber to be strong there.

I am pretty sure we will nail the 2nd spot. Alonso is struggling with Qs just like Kimi with these current Pirellis.

Alonso also probably lost the mojo for this campaign. Just like Kimi. Kimi treatment with brake problems, pit stop problems, strategy problems, seats falling etc. will not push Lotus any further.

So i think we are secured. Unless ofcourse some technical problems occures.

Maybe we can take a win in some of these races left. If Vettel gets a DNF.

Good job DJ!

Great podium finish for Nico!! Hammi had problems with grip. So thats ok result afterall. We had more gap to Ferrari for 2nd. So we are in good position. 2nd best team is closer now. Remember that there is only one place to get better for WCC!!

Vettel was ridiculous!!

Lotus is kind of out of the picture. Kimi has had some odd actions in last 6 GPs and they have lost the game. So its Merc vs. Ferrari for second. And we are clearly favorite without DNFs.

Hi guys

i'm back.

QWF: hamilton spun out due to a failure on the car? Would he otherwise have taken pole or being 2nd?

Race: after the race lewis got a new chassis due to a large crack in the one he raced, I read.

Rosberg strong race, lewis tried to race with a cracked car it seemed.
