2015 Formula 1 Thread

If I haven't said it enough...screw these damn Prius engines. Seriously...16 cars starting, and I will put at least 75% of the blame on f****** overly complex hybrids.

Lol I didn't think McLaren was going to finish this race but kmags car isn't even going to make the start. Popped just driving to the grid.

Sucks about bottas

[momo]

Oh wow, now a kvyats red bull died.

15 cars? Manor gonna regret not having anything running.

[Ruffdaddy]

Maybe 15 now?!

Man this is frustrating. How can Honda have gotten it so wrong? Too much focus on hydrogen cells?

[momo]

Powered by Honda Civic.

Idk people on reddit r/formula1 bashed me for ridiculing Honda and destroying McLaren as completely incompetent last year.

I thought the Honda part of the equation would be okay cause I figures they would just rip off Mercedes.

I dig the safety car. Perhaps I can buy a used amg gt in 3 years time.

I will admit I was massively wrong about Honda. I thought for sure they would do half decent because of their time in Indy. But I guess the problem isn't the ICE but the MGU-K. Let's bring this sport back to real engines.

Speaking of safety cars...its sad when the safety car sounds better than the race cars.

[Ruffdaddy]

Being able to actually test would help this shit too... Its impossible to get a system working without accurate testing.

[Ruffdaddy]

Maldonado...already...

[momo]

Both lotus out. 13 left

[Ruffdaddy]

Wow...I would have expected this last year but not this year. At least there has been some great political drama this year.

If only Indy would focus on real tracks...I wouldn't even have to waste my time with F1 until they decided to drop these overly complex and massively expensive systems.

[Ruffdaddy]

Lol just saw this on f1 technical.

I think Ferrari will get damn close to merc this year if not surpassing them eventually.

[momo]

One of the most boring races I've seen. I chose to go to bed half way through.

Ferrari and Williams could make things more interesting later this year. (Hopefully they do otherwise this is the end of f1)

I can't believe rbr/Renault are starting off like this, I fully expected they would have massively improved reliability and testing looked promising. Already down an engine before the race started... Miserable
