manor in the points lol
Hamilton is simply too easy to hate. I think he's a good driver but he's so fucking whiny and pompous that I really couldn't consider myself a fan of his, no matter how much I sometimes admire his qualifying pace. His absolute shit in a crowd though which is what I respect more than just raw pace.

>>69268919
if rosberg got kicked off Mercedes would any other team realistically take him?
>>69268933
Dumb frogposter.
>>69268959
>YET AGAIN
This was the first time he actually did it by being faster.
Good on Verstappen though, I expected him to get exposed hard for the rest of the season but the opposite might be the case. Still want him to fail hard though.
>>69268952
i wouldn't want a road raging hothead like rosberg on my team tbqhwyf
this thing looks awful
>>69268933
Williams, Force India, Renault
>>69269040
Looks half finished
>>69268933
>Red Bull
too crowded with Bully, Amx, and Sainz
>Ferrari
Rosberg doesn't get along with Vettel
>McLaren
NandoxVandoorne
>Williams
they'd probably pass on Button for Rosberg
>Renault
I can see Rosberg taking a gamble with them, and Renault would be happy to pair him with KMag
>Force India
#TeamNicos, or if Checo stays I can see them dropping le Le Mans Winner for him
and on the other side, I don't think Nico would consider any of the remaining teams. It's already a stretch he would consider Force India
but in any case, he's staying with Mercedes so this speculation is all moot
>>69269040
I like it, the wheel arches/bulges remind of the auto union streamliner cars and from the side it's reminiscent of a huayra
>>69268933
McLaren if Button retires/leaves/gets sacked, they actually wanted him around 2004/2005 before Hamilton started showing potential in GP2.
>>69269203
McLaren will never hire a German
>>69269353
They'll probably ignore his German side and pretend that he's Swedish/Finnish.
>>69269203
Who is vandoorne though?
Gerhard Berger was with McLaren, he's Austrian but that's no different to german
>>69269174
I hadn't thought of the old streamliners, good call. All I could think was Koenigsegg.
>>69269396
Niki Lauda too.
>>69269169
>Rosberg doesn't get along with Vettel
it's not like they hate each other, it's just because rosberg lacks a sense of humor
>>69269455
He isn't as awkward in German than he is in English.

watch rosberg go all the way off the racing line to push hamilton off into the crash. i was hoping the incident at austria last weekend would open people's eyes to how rosberg truly behaves as a driver. he's dirty as fuck. i'd say he's the dirtiest driver on the grid right now.
>>69269862
I don't dislike him because he's black but because he's whiny and annoying and too egotistical to be grounded.
All the edgy racism is getting pretty old honestly
>>69270047

it was too late by then. you're ignoring how much faster hamilton was going. he was hauling ass because rosberg was harvesting. if rosberd hadn't fucked up his engine mode then that wouldn't have happened. fact.
>>69270122
no man
they deserve it for being stupid
>>69270149
>hamilton's car didn't have brakes
>>69270149
the speed difference is irrelevant to who was at fault for the crash
fact is lewis saw rosberg moving to the inside and went for the gap anyway, therefore lewis was at fault
Silverstone sucks. F1 at Brand Hatch when?
>>69270188
i don't blame hamilton for trying to pass at all. i'd love to hear an opinion from another driver about what happened in spain. i think any other driver in hamilton's position would have done the same.
>>69269995
it was though
all the incidents between them are tossberg's fault because he can't drive wheel-to-wheel for shit

>>69272704
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjdYTzlfms0
Wow. I love Weichai now!
>>69272855
That wasnt even remotely Hamilton's fault. He was much faster simply went to pass him on the inside. Rosberg tried to cover Hamilton too late and cause the crash. Its that simple.
I think the only reason rosberg wasnt penalised was because they knew he had a wrong engine mode.
>>69272918
if Spain were truly Rosberg's fault then he would have been penalised
>>69272855
Spain was a racing incident. Both share the blame equally, or neither are too blame. Rosberg went to cover at pretty much the same time HAM went for the gap
>>69273048
Then we can agree to disagree that it was just a racing incident then. (a racing incident caused by Rosberg)
>>69272918
>would have been penalized
They were in a tight spot regarding that. Penalise Hamilton and you are sending the message that high risk passes are not ok
Penalise Rosberg and you are sending the message defending yourself from passing is not ok
They both have been punished from the incident because they crashed
>>69273037
Lauder blames Hamilton. He could have avoided the crash and still passed.
He went on the suicide passing attempt Rosberg went on the suicide defence attempt
Both parties are at fault but if Hamilton didn't force the situation hiw he did he would have passed and won. It was a bit of a battle of egos and they both lost
>>69273037
>Rosberg tried to cover Hamilton too late and cause the crash.
He moved at exactly the same time.

the fuck, Britain?
>>69273155

>>69273155
The incident concerned started when Car 6 dropped into an incorrect power mode, as set by the driver prior to the start. This created a significant power differential between Car 6 and Car 44 at the exit of Turn 3 coming onto the straight, resulting in as much as a 17kph speed difference between the two cars on the straight. Car 6 moved to the right to defend his position, as is his right under Art 27.7 of the Sporting regulations. Simultaneously Car 44 as the significantly faster car with, at that time, apparent space on the inside, moved to make the pass. Art 27.7 requires the leading driver to leave room, if there is a “significant portion” of the car attempting to pass alongside. Car 44 had a portion of his front wing inside Car 6 small fractions of a second prior to Car 44 having to leave the right side of the track to avoid an initial collision, which may have led him to believe he had the right to space on the right. Once on the grass on the side of the track Car 44 was no longer in control of the situation.
Having heard extensively from both drivers and from the team, the Stewards determined that Car 6 had the right to make the maneuver that he did and that Car 44’s attempt to overtake was reasonable, and that the convergence of events led neither driver to be wholly or predominantly at fault, and therefore take no further action.
>>69273147
How the fuck hamilton forced the situation? He was faster, there was no reason for him to brake. The only person that forced something was rosberg when he saw Hamilton trying pass him, started chocking like he always does, and pushed Hamilton out of the track with a tatally late and amateur move to cover the inside.
Lauda just likes to be controversial. Ok, the guy in front has the right to cover his line but if you do it that late you shouldn't be surprised if both of you crash out.
>>69273268
Except he wasn't late. Hamilton never got enough of the car alongside Rosberg.
>>69273268
>he saw
>late
>do it that late
They moved at the exact same time.
Rosberg wasn't reacting to Hamilton. He was reacting to being in the wrong engine mode and knew Hamilton was behind him somewhere and knew Hamilton would be quicker. He decided to cover the inside and moved across.
At the same time Hamilton saw Rosberg's slower car ahead and went for a pass on the inside where there was at the time space.
They both went to the same spot and 2 does not go into 1.
Neither driver did anything against the rules.
>>69273197
>incorrect power mode
fuck this shit. why is it "incorrect"? the driver/team should be able to put the car in any power mode they wish.
>>69270814
The 6 seasons he had a shit Car
>>69273363
It was incorrect for Rosberg at that point not incorrect in the rules.
It was basically a harvesting mode that you wouldn't used when defending at the start of the race.

There is nothing in the rules against reversing before the red lights have turned on.
Charlie saw him reversing and waited for him to get into his slot and then hit the lights.

This is the <60 points scope.
The points decreasing is just the trend doing it's work
>>69268919
Why are people arguing over who was at fault? This was 100% clearly the fault of both. 50/50. Nico went far too wide like a bitch, he plenty of room inside, and Hamilton clearly cut down like a bitch, he had at least a full carwidth outside. That's ridiculous and both drivers should be penalized by the team.
>>69270814

>>69278338
It's surprising to me how accurate this looks. Good work lad.
>>69278490
Most people who are not imbeciles know it was Rosberg's fault. But Hamilton was not an innocent victim. He knew what he was doing.
>>69278490
>nico was penalized
no shit. I know that, and I'm saying it should have been equal for both.
>>69278664
rosberg lost the lead when he clipped the inside curb through the turn before the crash. rosberg should have let hamilton through, got a good exit and then attacked him through the next few turns, but since rosberg knows he can't beat hamilton fair and square he decided to spear into the side of him and almost caused another double DNF
>>69278687
>more bait
>>69278402
Well played.
Is it right for the FIA to not punish teammates, or should they always treat drivers as individuals?
>>69278703
nevermind, i guess that was the very last turn. that makes this even more crazy
>>69278703
Are you seriously claiming Hamilton had no fault in that?
>>69278768
yes, fucktard. that's precisely what i'm saying. spain wasn't his fault either
>>69278787
No one's talking about Spain you moron.
Hamilton had plenty of room outside. Are you denying that? He chose to come down when a driver was underneath him, and cause a collision. He was just as guilty as rosberg.
>>69278703
I know, I'm saying it was Rosberg's fault. But Ham could have easily avoided the collision. He chose not to, which is fair to him, since it was being presented to him. Hamilton knows he can't back out of a "we're going to have a collision" situation, or risk losing the psychological edge he has over other drivers. I actually admire him for this as it isn't something many drivers have today. It still makes him far from innocent in the situation. All the hate is in backlash to Hamilton fans acting like they've just had a collision on par with Jerez '97. Doesn't make it correct but when people act like something is unarguably something it isn't, people get assblasted.
There no way Mercedes keeps both drivers next year. If Hamilton wins the chip this year, rosberg is clearly leaving. But what if Nico holds on and wins it? Would they really fire a driver who just won the title for them?

>>69278996
>>69279019
that's the racing line. notice how rosberg isn't even turning? hamilton had track position; he's in the lead. rosberg should have conceded the position and taken the inside line but that would have meant he loses the race without putting up a fight. rosberg would rather spear into hamilton and cause another double DNF than lose the race
>>69279119
I agree completely
Hamilton could have avoided the crash. Rosberg would have been penalized and Hamilton would have won.
Instead he stupidly turned into Rosberg
>>69278996
>hamilton did something stupid
yet he won the race
i think i've come to realise that hamiltons true genius is his ability to dance up and down the lines between legal<>illegal and that'sracing<>that'sdirty and get away with it
at austria hamilton either didn't know that rosberg stayed that close to him and turned thinking he was fine or he knew he could turn into rosberg and get away with it because the optics would make it look like it was all rosbergs fault and the penalties and damage would more likely end up on roseberg
rosberg tried to play a game of dirty chicken with a guy whose an expert at playing dirty chicken and got beaten by experience
>>69279190
i think it would have been stupid it he damaged and ruined his own race, instead it worked out as a dirty (but completely legal) tactic which only hurt rosberg, both in terms of what happened in the race and the steward decision
>>69279190
>Instead he stupidly turned into Rosberg
i think he left it wide as fuck for rosberg and didn't see how close they were, rosberg was smack bang in his blindspot
>>69279190
hamilton was turning first and rosberg was in his blind spot. there's no way hamilton could have known rosberg would ignore the turn entirely and head straight off the track just to hit him. there's a reason rosberg was penalized for this. it was a desperate and reckless move by rosberg.
it reminds me of senna vs prost at suzuka 1989, except senna had much more to gain from crashing out his teammate
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDAGmI6SH3k
>>69279119
This is probably bait at this point but I'll take it. I'm firmly in the Rosberg is at fault camp, but your argument about Hamilton being in the lead, having track position, and deserving to concede the position is wrong. If Rosberg had just turned in a little earlier and ran him out wide Hamilton style it would have been perfectly clean racing. Rosberg was in the lead and had track position because he was closer to the apex and not floating far on the outside.

I agree with both of these. I don't get why there is so much of an argument about it all. It """"my""""" guy did nothing wrong bandwagoning
>>69279303
>>69279332
I can see this being true. Hamilton knows Rosberg is somewhere there and probably could have been more cautious. I mean that's why Rosberg is at fault there and got penalized because Hamilton could have legitimately though Rosberg had turned
>>69279332
>senna vs prost at suzuka 1989
I think you have the 1990 Senna and Prost incident in mind there. iirc Prost stood more to gain in that situation in 1989 and that's why he ran into Senna
is http://whenisf1on.com/ broken?
>>69279347
hamilton had the faster line and the finish was only a few seconds away. rosberg had already lost the lead before the turn. that's why he tried to crash him out
>>69279405
It's weird because the incident itself is more similar to '89, but he is clearly describing it in terms of '90
>>69279119
>>69278924
>tfw if Rosberg was more to the left this would have been a great defensive move
If he was just next to Hamilton he wouldn't have been able to turn first and Rosberg would have been able to force him to run all the way along the white line on the outside. Hamilton could then chose to run in a 1 car gap or bail and go off which would be his own fault.
As it is Hamilton turned in first and at that point Rosberg has to react and can't in time.
>>69279405
>>69279446
i thought senna won the 89 title for some reason
>>69279422
Hamilton had the faster line if Rosberg had not still been partially alongside him and in the way of him taking the corner, Nico wasn't just going to disappear. You can speculate all you want as to Nico's intentions, we will never know the truth, but I legitimately think rather than trying to crash Hamilton out he was just trying to block him and not allow him through. For me that's the much more reasonable and simple option, Occam's razor and all that.
>>69279494
No worries m8. To be fair the real controversy of that incident wasn't the actual collision itself it was the disqualification afterwards.
>>69279494
But Anon, he did
I personally love the drama in the merc team, it's maddeningly entertaining
Also fuck the haters, I like lewis.
>>69279522
Senna was clearly helped by marshals, the DSQ was justified
>>69279523
>(You)
>>69279558
I don't really want to get into a 30 year old argument because I don't really have a side to pick but Senna was disqualified for missing the chicane, not for receiving assistance from the marshals
>>69279537
>I like lewis
Lewis is fine when he's not trying to be le super cool celebrity because it's obvious that's not the type of guy he is
>>69279537
>the HAMROS era of mercedes will never be turned into an anime
The movie is inevitable though. I wonder who will play Toto Wolff.
>>69279596
No he was disqualified for assistance.
Missing the chicane is just give the position back.
It's a crime what Balestre did to Senna BTW. Not just then but over his whole career.
>>69278443
Someone should update this to make it relevant to this season
>>69279619
Nice to see the Senna doc brainwashing is working

I'm having a hard time finding exact evidence of what he was disqualified for. In the grandprix.com link in the text it states he was excluded for missing the chicane, but in the results table it lists him as being DSQ for a bump start. So I don't know what to believe. Basically it seems like he was DSQ for both things.
There are so many reasons to hate Hamilton
Why choose colour
>>69272354
It's called a chip butty, atleast get the name right.
>>69279787
it's the edgiest reason
>>69279771
Hmm it says here it was for rejoining after using the chicane escape road but WTF, what if someone outbraked himself? Sorry, race over, can't rejoin? It doesn't make sense.
Which also points to a conspiracy against him because I could actually understand being DSQ for a bump start, but for missing a corner? PSSHT. FISA was sending a subtle message.
Also what was up with ADDITIONAL sanctions being levied on appeal? IT was total BS against senna and/or McLaren.

Is this the first time we've seen him angry?

It would have been amazing

That was the debate that followed. And it was changed to allow drivers to carry on through.

Every year had some sort of controversy.
I need a true meme movie on it.
>>69279882
Why would i want to watch Prost smash Senna every year?
It wasn't even competative
>>69279969

it's true. prost > senna

We're not doing this.
>>69279882
would /f1/ have been majority pro-Senna or pro-Prost? hard to say since a lot of the current Senna hate is just backlash against him being the popular choice for the title of "Greatest"
>>69280002
Pro Senna 100%
Fuck frogs
>>69280002
Probably pro Prost. They'd hate to see a competitive Brazilian.
Fangio vs Clark. Who was better?
>>69280030

prost lad
>>69280002
i watched the senna doc when i was a newb and it made me think he was a god, but now that i've been around for a few years i'm seeing why that's not true. prost simply outclassed senna in every way. he was a better strategist, teammate, tactician. senna was faster at some tracks but prost was much more well rounded.
i also somewhat blame senna's accident for why F1 has become so obsessed with safety over the past 30 years. it's getting ridiculous
>>69280002
My bet is on Senna. Can't really explain why. Could be wrong though.
>>69280030
Clark > Fangio for me. He raced in a more competitive era and was almost as dominant. It's hard to say with absolute certainty though since they never raced one another.
Ascari>Fangio
Surtees>Clark
JP Sarti>Pete Aron
>>69280107
