great pit work by McLaren.

never thought I’d say it but shame to see schumi out.

😯
You can get quicker than a KwikFit fitter!

Oops.

Poor Michael. 🙁

Clubber,

So sad that 70 overtakes in a races is a significant stat! Thats just over one per lap. Wow. 😕

I was brought up on a diet of F1,2, 3 Formula Ford, sports cars and saloon car racing and F1 could learn a lot from those old series.

The FIA have neutered F1. Off to take the dog for a walk, far more exciting! 😕

It all seems to be on at a very civilised time over he in Oz. Unfortunately it’s looking like a pretty sterile race so far, Kimi could be the surprise here…..

some people like lots of easy overtaking, others prefer it to be a bit harder and worthwhile 😉

Maybe you should go and watch one of the various us racing series…

I love these positive contributions to f1 threads. Why? I mean really why bother? On other thread topics you find boring, do you go in and say ‘this is boring, blah blah blah’ . No?

I find picking up dog shite probably as uninspiring as you find f1 these days, but each to their own. I remember the glory days of picking up dog shite back in the 80s, when as you crawled about in a piss soaked hedge between the cans and carrier bags there was at least a 50% chance of finding a copy of razzle. Happy days.

😉

Why bother? Because I sacrificed a ride to watch it. I actually was excited and now so disappointed.

It’s a free country. Off to go and pick up warm dog sh1te 🙂

You could go for a ride…..

enjoy 😕

Pook, I will, but sadly later; 17 laps of boredom took my early ride slot away 🙁

Nice weather too.

So when is Perez going to Ferrari then….?

Edit: this is brilliant!

jeepers! New underwear for Mr Webber!

Nice wheelie from webber 😯

Webber in the pits to change his pants !

Brill. My better half has ordered me out of the house for a ride as she’s seen what a grump I’m in!

Might have to watch more F1!!!

How boring is this?

Getting a bit livelier now:)

Yeah dull. 😯

How boring is this?

Not boring at all! I had it on in the background while doing some stuff around the house, then had to sit down to watch it properly.

As dishwater. I really wish someone would try an overtake….

zzzzzzz

Keep up crazy legs.

Well done nico. Well deserved. Cracking race – what a second half.

good to see Webber back with some form this year

happy to see Nico win too.

That was really boring, not.

Driver’s championship is getting a bit nip and tuck too. The makings of a great season…

Warm dog poo and razzles all round

wish I had a dog so I’d had an excuse to miss this race…

god you poor bored bastards – i sat and half worked/half kept up with the whole thing on bbc web text updates. it sounded immense, gutted not have actually got to see it! 😡

Nah it was rubbish. 😉

Well, great ride! So what did I miss?

So what did I miss?

The opportunity to post negative stuff on the thread?

Throwback to the old days for the first half with very little overtaking, but really fantastic second half.

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiicoooooooo!!!

At least it picked up then.

Higthepig, did I dare to upset you by stating facts; that the 17 laps were devoid of action? Bless!

Have some tissues on me!

Managed to avoid the result on the radio all day and watched the Sky highlights show, which condensed it into a very interesting race.

mikertroid,

No you didn’t upset me, keep the tissues, thanks for the thought though 🙂

Anytime 😉

Watched on iplayer after a great days riding

Great race with a proper hectic section when everyone was fighting for 2nd place

I promised not to watch F1 this year after the whole Sky thing, but if i can go cycling on the Sunday, avoid any chances of hearing the result, then go home and watch it online, then i might just continue to follow F1

Well done Nico 😀
