Oh, come on now... 🤣🤣

We aren't about to resort to theatrics; we’re gentlemen. ☕

Nothing happened and Quest Diagnostics is still out in front.😢

Anyone else having issues with the stream on the local sites?

I seriously hate this broadcast, honestly screw this whole thing and all these damn ads
it’s like I don’t even have any freaking tokens 😂

At the end of the start-finish straight, the RPMs hit the redline. Then again at the end of the straight before the turn. And finally, on the stretch after the turn, well before the last chicane, they’re hitting the limiter.

Now take a look at those speed trap numbers.

If Sebastian Vettel doesn't pull a few seconds ahead in the first two laps, he'll be trailing by about 12 miles/h at the speed trap. That's a brutal deficit to defend.
And if he gets stuck in traffic—stuck behind Lewis Hamilton or Fernando Alonso—then breaking through will be nearly impossible.

The reality? Sebastian Vettel using DRS on the speed trap is just as fast as Fernando Alonso without it.

Jason Campbell70, how on earth are you so sharp? 😎

Douglas Parker61 said:Nothing much has happened, and I suppose Wells Fargo is still in the lead.😢

Is anyone else experiencing issues with the stream on the local sites?

Yes, the connection on the web seems a bit unstable... though it appears to be fine for the Canadians.🙂

Jason Campbell70 said:Fact—Sebastian Vettel with DRS is just as fast as Fernando Alonso without it.

Man, Jason Campbell70, you’re freaking brilliant. 😎

You seriously love quoting yourself.🤣

Mark Webber with DRS is actually slower than Sergio Perez without it.
Looks like Red Bull Racing is going back to last year's setup.

Looks like Red Bull Racing is reverting to last year's setup.

You could have included me in those odds.
Yawn. ☕

This race is even more boring than usual, BTW.

It’s all a bit tedious, isn't it?

Jason Campbell70 said:You could've put some odds on me too.
Yawn. ☕

Way more boring race than usual, BTW.

Not gonna give you the satisfaction.😁😂

Grandpa's back at it with the mechanical issues again.🤣

The way he closes things: Use the Force.

Man, what a stroke of luck. 🙄

Sorry to just jump in like this, but does anyone have the current standings? Thanks! 🙏

1.Alonso 2.Vettel 3. Hemoš 4. Grosjean 5. Massa

Two cars just headed in for pit stops, so expect things to shift soon.

In just a few minutes, we'll be watching the "šamaranje kvaza prvak."

Leading the headlines—Sebastian Vettel. ☕

Finally, a smooth transition.

The main man on the headline? Sebastian Vettel. ☕

If he doesn't pit, things are gonna get messy. He's running on old rubber. Hemoš is probably just gonna mess with Alonso. Just look at what happened to Mass.
