Rosberg only wins when Lewis has problems.

Re: 2016 Formula 1 Season Thread
 

Yes that is often the case.

l am sure our revered resident of this said thread might share a differing view though on matters.;)

More important things on my mind today/yesterday than the F1 I'm afraid. Past caring about anything right now.

Re: 2016 Formula 1 Season Thread
 

I was a fan of his dad and really want to like ROS but I can't think of a single race where he has really had to work for it and win without hitting someone.

If Spa was going to be the race HAM looked back on and said that's where I won the championship he could look back at Monza and say that's where I lost it.....

Roll on the next race

From what l hear it will definitely happen.

Re: 2016 Formula 1 Season Thread
 

Not sure if this is CVC trying to push up the price but its not a done deal yet apparently.

"But CVC is also understood to still be negotiating with RSE Ventures, an investment firm run by Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross, who is working in tandem with a Qatari consortium, and another as yet unnamed private equity firm."

It looks like F1 is stuck with Ecclestone for another 3 years assuming the expected takeover by Liberty Media goes ahead!

Now confirmed Liberty buys F1, i hope this means we can finally watch F1 on the XL pack, but thinking about it they dont own the TV rights!

Re: 2016 Formula 1 Season Thread
 

Apple might buy McLaren

I can see this scenario.

So it looks like Nico has been gifted the drivers title, after Lewis suffers yet another engine failure.

8 cars use Mercedes engines, yet Lewis is the only one to have issues.

Re: 2016 Formula 1 Season Thread
 

A championship win for Rosberg will benefit both in the long run. If he's sat in Hamilton's shadow for too long he'll only get more frustrated and cause a breakdown between both that we've seen stir in the past.

Bad season for Hamilton but again it should have some benefits in the long term if they're both carrying World Champion status.

Re: 2016 Formula 1 Season Thread
 

Hopefully Nico will bottle it again.

Or take his turn in engine problems.
