Good timing thanks to SC.

ADx_Wales · Post by **ADx_Wales** » 29 May 2011, 12:57

What? No Double Wide restart? arf.

So who's screwed pitstop wise?

Ferrim · Post by **Ferrim** » 29 May 2011, 12:57

The result of this SC has been that now we have two races: one for the people in P1 to P9, and another one for the rest. Some guys who were nearly one lap down have been able to recover that gap, the rest have been unlucky (particularly Barrichello who was P5 a couple of laps before the SC period, when he pitted).

But the most important thing, of course, is that Kobayashi now has a realistic shot at unrejectification.

COME ON KAMUI!!!

Sutil and Kobayashi haven't pitted yet I believe.

Can someone tell me what happened as I was afk for a moment? Why is the safety car out?

Klon · Post by **Klon** » 29 May 2011, 12:58

Kobayashi and Sutil in good positions without actually doing anything for it. Lucky bastards.

So that's their actual position?

That's wonderful.

Edit: They have pitted AFAIK

Thank you. I'm completely lost and confused in this race now. :oops:

Why is Vettel ahead of Button? Has Button pitted?

WeirdKerr · Post by **WeirdKerr** » 29 May 2011, 13:01

is that the longest into a season without a safty car since they started using them?

Get some live timing man.

DC you bloody would too.

There's your common sense FIA!

Post by **Londoner** » 29 May 2011, 13:03

Inevitable drive through for Hamilton.

tristan1117 · Post by **tristan1117** » 29 May 2011, 13:04

Hamilton gets a drive-through and completes it.

ADx_Wales · Post by **ADx_Wales** » 29 May 2011, 13:04

Allan McNish making the FIA look good.

Can't argue, fully deserved

Paul Di Resta with an inadvertant extra flexiwing on his nose.

Post by **Londoner** » 29 May 2011, 13:07

Di Resta does it again at the hairpin. Right into the back of the remaining Virgin.

Shizuka · Post by **Shizuka** » 29 May 2011, 13:07

Di Resta is making the BBC commentators ashame in my opinion.

Post by **DemocalypseNow** » 29 May 2011, 13:08

Live timing shows Kobayashi made a stop...when?!

Also, I may have judged Maldonado prematurely. Looking good so far.

During the safety car...

Post by **DemocalypseNow** » 29 May 2011, 13:12

Hamilton was right. Buemi should be disqualfied. Shameful blocking to aid the senior team.

Post by **Londoner** » 29 May 2011, 13:13

According to Kravitz, Alonso is coming into play.

Then why didn't the Alguersaurus immediately jump out of Webber's way?

tristan1117 · Post by **tristan1117** » 29 May 2011, 13:17

Vettel has to pit now! Unless he's going to do a Senna-Mansell, what is he doing out there?

TimmyB · Post by **TimmyB** » 29 May 2011, 13:19

VETs going to stay out til the end methinks

ADx_Wales · Post by **ADx_Wales** » 29 May 2011, 13:20

Alosno right up Vettel's trousers.

shinji · Post by **shinji** » 29 May 2011, 13:25

This could be an epic last few laps.

ADx_Wales · Post by **ADx_Wales** » 29 May 2011, 13:29

AH PAUL!!! why you no get in way.

TimmyB · Post by **TimmyB** » 29 May 2011, 13:30

Senna / Mansell will be nothing compared to this...

I can't imagine this won't end up in contact.

Ferrim · Post by **Ferrim** » 29 May 2011, 13:31

First race in the season that I manage to properly read what's going on during the weekend and particularly the race, more or less.

I disagree. lol.

Senna had to hold up a more superior car(designed by newey). Vettel is the one in the more superior car (designed by newey).

But its bloody close.

Kamui 4th

tristan1117 · Post by **tristan1117** » 29 May 2011, 13:34

ADx_Wales · Post by **ADx_Wales** » 29 May 2011, 13:34

I dont care who wins, Kamui is no longer reject.

Post by **DemocalypseNow** » 29 May 2011, 13:34

YES! THERE'S ONLY ONE KOBAYASHI!!!!!!!

the Masked Lapwing · Post by **the Masked Lapwing** » 29 May 2011, 13:34

I hope all three of them crash, to hand Kamui victory!

tkcom · Post by **tkcom** » 29 May 2011, 13:36

Koba podium to unrejectify himself? Just waiting for any of the top 3 to come together.

mediocre · Post by **mediocre** » 29 May 2011, 13:36

That was some monster overtaking by Kobayashi there!
