Can't believe that cars are allowed to tour round a blind bend when marshalls are clearing the track. A Red Flag should mean stop.

Getting more like stock car racing by the minute.

WTF was Red Bull doing there with Ricardo's tyre change?  They weren't even ready

fix

How Hamilton won this farce is beyond me. This so called race today was a complete an utter shambles. F1????

Really enjoyed first half of race

Crofty drove me mad once track was dry. Trying to make it entertaining by talking up Riccardio, Perez and Vettel as race winners when overtaking is non existent

Spot on. Hamilton was never going to lose that apart from a mistake or car trouble from that point onwards

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Didn't watch any of Canada...but I was looking forward to the new Azerbaijan circuit.


What a dreadful circuit
Boring layout, looks like a carpark and Azerbaijan backdrop is poor as well

Hamilton doesn't know what to do with his car without advices

Lauda said both drivers had same fault but Rosberg worked how to fix his.

Nothing worse than saying simulators are a waste of time before messing up every session of qual then not knowing which buttons to press

Very boring race.

That's not correct.  Rosberg changed to the faulty setting & the rules allowed him to be told to change it back.  Hamilton's was set to the faulty setting from the start which meant he could not be advised what to change.

F1 is so boring now it's not even funny

Mercedes is the most dominant car I've seen in my lifetime. In clean air it's advantage is ridiculous.

All the radio chatter is just strategy of maintaining the tyres and pushing at the correct times

And I found an old video from Silverstone with the proper engines. Nearly made me cry remembering an F1 engine noise in the flesh

Stolen from the planetf1 forum showing Mercs dominance

2016 - Merc wins = 11/12 (92%)

so little interest in F1 on here these days

The forum is dead and so is F1

However, those Merc dominance stats blow my mind and I posted it

races will be more boring than during the last years, pure processions, clocking faster lap times isn't what attracts viewers!

Apart from a change of usual winner it was a procession AGAIN - NO OVERTAKING!!

Quite liked watching the qually sims in practice. Cars looked stupidly fast

No overtaking so only part of race worth watching is the start and the pit stop laps

Mercedes properly stitching up punters.

5place grid penalties kept secret and only announced after FP2 2 weekends running

What a ridiculous race in Hungary. Which price was Ham for top 3?

I enjoyed the race and thats despite having £300 on Kimi at 20/1 and a further £150 at 7/1 on a Finnish winner
