Really nice work from Lewis. He looks a bit more relaxed, hope he can focus his natural talent.
Mercedes still top of the tree. Bringing happy memories from my old stamping grounds in the village.

Early days yet but a easy win for the first race. A bit dissapointed with Button though. I hope they get thier fingers out and give him a decent car.

Sorry Rayna, when one reaches my time in life we don't like change. Anyway just watched recorded Grand Prix, what a great race I found it quite exciting and good for Vettal, well done to him. I think this year could be one of the best now Ferrari have at last got their car on form, it will be tough for Mercedes now what with Ferrari and Williams pushing them along also don't forget the two new rookies and I think McLaren will improve a little later in the season too! :xxgrinning--00xx3:

Fantastic race, Lewis won but I was so pleased to see Kimi Raikkonen at second place, if the race could have had a few more laps Kimi would have won. Things will start to change now I'm sure, Ferrari and Williams doing well now, also Alonso did good too but felt so sorry for Jenson, hope things improve for him in the not too distant future. Looks like this season could be very exciting! :xxgrinning--00xx3:

I want to see Lewis beating Rosberg every day of the week. Rosberg likes to throw his dummy out and it is great to watch a grown man act like that when it is a German getting beat by an English man all the time.
At least we will see a good fight this year with Ferrari back in the mix.

They say nasty things about Murray just because he said in the past that he would never support the England football team, I think! Oh and because he is a Scottish Nationalist! People are just crazy if that's just the reason to hate someone especially when they don't know them personally. :crazy: I bet they earn peanuts compared to what he earns and he couldn't care less about them either. :xxgrinning--00xx3:

I checked my channels the other day and sadly no Star Sport.
I do have a couple of pretty good sports channels so was able to follow most of the Tour de France which I thoroughly enjoyed.

I also found a channel called DMax which covers most of my favourite motoring programmes including a lot of UK ones like 'Wheeler Dealers'. It's quite funny (and nice) to hear a British accent :icon_lol:

Was good to see Lewis win again,love him or hate him, he is one of the top 3 drives in F1 but has the best car. Rosberg is not in the same league. I only rate Vettel and Alonso on par with Lewis.

Serious potential in Verspappen, the 17 year old drives with no fear, some might call him a little reckless. I could not believe it when i saw him overtaking Nasr on the outside in Belgium. Would anyone else have tried that ?

Of course they'd be good enough. They've driven all kinds of different cars to get to F1. As Jeremy Clarkson showed in one episode of Top Gear when he drove one, it doesn't matter what tech it has, driving something with the acceleration and braking of an F1 car is suicidal. :omg:

To be honest i agree with you but it is technology that is advancing. A lot of the gizmos as you call them that are in your car now were first tested in Formula 1. What i would love to see back in manual gears, that would show the men from the boys.

The problem with Mexico is that the thinner air makes overtaking very difficult. So, you end up with a relatively boring race. Lewis couldn't overtake Rosberg as he lost down force, grip, and his breaks overheated whenever he got close.
