Webber needs to get a move on. Hamilton is all over him. If this was any other track he'd have blown straight past.

Webber's done well to hold him off so far, but. Hamilton's had several good opportunties to take him on the final corner into the main straight, but Webb's blocked him well.

Waiting for Hamilton to get annoyed and just drive into the back of Webber out of fustration, and take them both out of the race. :?

Unlucky there for Ricarrdo - He did well to control his car in the landing into the dead end zone - that could have been nasty. Grosjean just completely smashing into the back of Riccardo.

Apparently that's Grosjean's third wing he's gone through. Apparently the Lotus team are going to retire him, by the sounds of it they're not happy with the safety of the car following that crash. Wouldn't be surprised if it's suspension related.

Edit: The crash is under race review.

EDIT II: Apparently Grosjean was retired due to a 'broken floor'. Not surprised, he would have taken a fair bit of damage following the crash.

Do you have a thought in your head that isn't the same as the sky sports commentators? :lol:

Three wings in a weekend is insane for Grosjean. Wouldn't be surprised if Lotus dropped him.

Roman Grosjean has been given a 10 position penalty for the grid in Canada in a fortnights time for his accident with Daniel Riccardo.

Deserved.

Mark Webber is retiring from F1 at the end of the season. RB are a bit annoyed at such 'short notice' Kimi Raikkonen is tipped to replace him.

He's going to start driving full time at Porsch and will contest in next years Le Mans.

Silverstone is on tonight! Live on Ch.10 @ 9.30pm.

Would love to see Webber win his 3rd race here. He won it last year. He's qualified 4th behind Vettel (3rd) Rosberg (2nd) and Hamilton (1st).

Weather for qualifying was pretty wet, I think they're expecting similar conditions for todays race!

By the sounds of it, listening to the interview Mark Webber had with Channel 10, sounds like the reason as to why he's retiring from F1 is that he's lost his desire for F1 Racing.


Given his battles with Vettel and the RBR team in the last couple season, you can probably see why.

He just sounds like he's come to the realisation that his dream of winning a world title ended a number of seasons ago.

During the break, Felipe Masa (Ferrari) spins out. Looks like his tyres are fucked too (puncture). Mark Webber has pitted to fix his wing.

Big questions are really now being asked over Pirelli tyres.

Saftey car comes out, it's now a serious issue in the eyes of the F1.

Team Radio telling Sebastian Vettel he now has damage to his left rear.

Race could possibly be red flagged if tyres keep exploding.

Scary vision from Kimi Raikkonens cockpit from Vernes tyres explosion, bits of burning rubber assaulted him, straight into his helmet, had bits of burning rubber burning in his cockpit.

Race Control needs to take a look at corners 4/5 and why the teams seem to think they're taking damage from the curbs there. The circuit renovations could be doing all kinds of things. Teams are going to raise the PSI of their tyres, see if they can make them more resilient.

Raikkonen was lucky he didn't get hit by that big chunk that went flying past.

So we're less than half way and we've seen issues for Massa, Virgne, Button, Webber, Vettel and Hamilton. That's insane.
