G'day an welcome,

yeah lewis will most likely "bounce back" but that because he has a car that allows him to. But I feel Redbull will be strong in Suzuka aswell.

Thank you.

Yes red bull would definitely be stronger than Ferrari. Its difficult to over power Mercedes without the reliability issues. I hope lewis wins the race and makes the title a little bit interesting.

Rain forecast for both Quali and Race. Exciting race perhaps.

I don't think Mercedes advantage will be so significant in Suzuka due to the layout, tends to suit RB chassis.

It will be battle between the Mercs and RB again...

Even if it suits the RB chassis we all know that one of the merc drivers will be victor. RB or ferrari could compete only if it rains or mercs didnt finish.

My predictions for the top ten would be, 

Lewis

Ros

Ric

Vet

Max

Kimi

Alonso

Perez

But

Hulk

However if it rains it would be different result altogether.

Yes that is true but Lewis said he could possible sit out of a practice session for the remainder of the races. Surely that would have to have an effect of his car setup or they will probably get nico to run extra scenarios to collect data for Lewis.

Nico

Dan

Kimi

Seb

Max

 

Lewis DNF crashes

DRS makes for fake overtaking !

You know the modern cars can't pull that off anymore, especially being compromised more than usual with turbulent air in slipstream. Maybe next year R-O

Yep agree 100%, just the commitment shown to keep it stuck on the outside is awesome.

Yeah that's true and sad. I'm a big big fan of slip streaming that's I I can never accept DRS. Hopefully it comes back.

On a side note, I met Kimi in 2001 (Malaysia) before he moved to McLaren the year after. He was with Sauber Petronas. Nice guy, few words, funny. He told me that F1 cars in the future will be high tech but less interesting to drive....

Lewis disrespectful  at Japan Pres con using CP during session. Good Job !

Keep going Lewis. Show your PUNKNESS to the world and continue alienating yourself.

[Emmcee 0]

Just the lack of respect he has for everyone let alone himself boggles my mind. So rude and his body language stinks when it doesn't go his way.

wow, thats great news!

Hasn't kimi relaxed lately? I mean over the past couple of seasons when media and such have been consistently in his back about his performances, he would be quite grumpy and blunt when being spoke to. Now he is a lot more relaxed and doesn't mind answering some stupid questions. Finally he has had some luck and his results speak for themselves. I don't think his speed was ever a question, motivation? Maybe but not now, it was just a bad run of form topped with horrible luck.

True. His last missed at the podium in Singapore, I was really p**sed as Ferrari. IMO he could have hold off Lewis until the end.It's Singapore, not too easy to overtake and easier to block/defend...

The way Suzuka was meant to be driven in an f1 car

 

 

juet look at the cornering speed and just how much grip is available so early out of corners.

Looks like Nico still has the momentum in Suzuka. At least in FP1,2
