Threadly reminder that Ricciardo was beaten by Narain Karthikeyan
Noah Morales
Who will McLaren get to replace Alonso for next season? And what if Alonso drops out before the end of the season, who will they get then? Button is the """""reserve driver""""""" but he won't come back to drive that shitbox.
And Vandoorne has contract only for 2017, what if he goes, too?

MERCEDES FUCKING CHEATS
>thejudge13.com/2017/03/16/better-lap-time-by-burning-oil/ >Renault’s MD for F1 Cyril Abiteboul, welcomed the clarification of the rules saying that it was good to know what was, or wasn’t permitted. >“We were not attacking anyone in particular. But we needed to make sure that it is clear to everyone, and it can be properly monitored and also enforced that fuel should remain the primary combustible used in F1.” >“We can refer to the spirit of the regulations – the combustibles are clear for everyone that they should be fuel – but having said that any engine will burn oil. >“But whether you burn oil for lubrication or as a combustible is something completely different. What we feel is that we need to be extremely clear about what should be the spirit, and we need to be clear also and that should be the FIA’s responsibility to make sure that it is enforceable. I accept that it is challenging.”
Brayden Perry
Get this out to Italian media FFS
Nathaniel Campbell
How did Merc get away with it lads?
Levi Rodriguez
Take all Mercedes trophies except Rosbergs because he didn't know as he is an upstanding gentleman.
James Watson
This is illegal in several ways >bypassing of the fuel flow sensors, they could use more fuel than allowed in addition to the oil >not providing an actual sample of their fuel (the oil-fuel mix they actually burn) >burning a fuel mixture that does not meet regulations
Strip their Championships, fine them, move them to the end of the pit lane!

Stop sticking up for the dirty cheater Lewis! Vettel is a good guy because he is teaching the dirty confirmed cheater a lesson!!

>Does FIA plan to investigate so-called oil burning in engines as raised by Red Bull and Renault? Is it an area you’re concerned about? >CW: I wouldn’t say it’s an area of concern; it’s an area of interest. We’re monitoring it. We did quite a lot of work on that in Barcelona. We’re going to inspect all the oil systems here and we’re going to randomly check oil consumption to make sure it’s not being used as fuel.
That's why the Merc doesn't smoke anymore, isn't a second quicker than anyone else in Q3, and why there was no "Hammertime".
William Diaz
They're just jealous of our success mate
Brody James
I wonder how Riccy feels knowing he is a 2 time WDC because he isn't a cheating scumbag? Must feel pretty good
Brandon Adams
>Ferrari were doing it too why didn't they just rat them out?
Brayden Russell
>Hammertime Was "hammertime" just them bruning oil in the cylinders? They would need like what, 2 kilos of excess oil to make use in quali and race?
Austin Robinson
Embarrassment They, while using the same cheat as merc, only finished 3rd in the WCC.
Adrian Miller

when did this oil gate come up?

Ricky a shit
Justin Brown
>self-implicating implications
David Nguyen
>Ferrari were doing it too
You keep saying that, yet offer zero proof. You don't even highlight any suspicions; ie when did Ferrari use special engine modes in Q3?
It's nothing but Hamiltonfan damage control. >"I have no proof or specific allegations, but Ferrari did it too, so that means Lewis didn't win 2 world championships by cheating"
Matthew Ortiz
Who's going to win the WDC this year and why is it Lewis
Samuel Bell
>Seb is now a 5 time World Champion
He's got this one in the bag as well. So only one more year until Schumi emerges from the grave to defend his record
Charles Edwards
Crazy to think 12 months later this man won the WDC What a champion to improve that much
Josiah Johnson
Ferrari fags need to be gassed

Nathaniel Ross
the oilocaust is a hoax >how did they burn all that oil so quickly? >why were there no traces of carbon monoxide in the fumes? >the red bull statement is full of inconsistencies
Xavier Foster
Yet Charlie knew about it before testing and was looking into catching these cheaters
Hmmmmmmmm
Ethan Wood
>more Hamiltonfan damage control
William Wright
OY VEY
Benjamin Jones

Mercedes put the sun in his eyes

Stop posting anytime, James.
Luke Cox
Crazy to think he even won the WDC in that year!
Who would have thought am I right!
Noah Rogers
>if I post the same 3 crashes of one guy that means he's bad I'd love to post all Kimi's crashes but I don't have 2 weeks to spare
Jordan Ross
"If I start right fucking now, I'll have another son in F1 when I'm 67. Maybe he won't suck."
Christian Williams
>same 3 crashes this is the first time I posted it, Nigel. And we all know Gimi is shit, GOA77as is the future
Parker Sanders
Lol you people are like Liberals after Trump won. So salty
Ryan Baker
Then again, Kimi is terrible
John Gray

Gabriel Clark
What are you smoking lad? You seem either upset or delusional in my view. Mercedes-Benz is a German company not Russian.
>claims it's a baseless claim >FIA are looking into and stopping the illegal actions Their must be something they are on to, more developments to come
Benjamin Sanchez
Haas is going to win a race this year, willing to post a pic of my butt hole if they don't
Cooper Flores
>Reminder
When RB were on top everyone was saying what they were doing with they're Aero was illegal too
John Walker
Still doesn't explain why the Ferrari didn't get pole though
Liam Bailey
Vettel fucked up his lap, he can match him in dirty air and better him in free air in the race so it's that simple.
Brandon Sanchez
try not to take it too hard when mercedes is cleared of all wrongdoing
Jason Cook
Mercedes are still better over one lap. And this is a strong track for Mercedes, as is Shanghai. Bahrain & Spain will favor Ferrari, let's see if that will give them the advantage in qualifying, too.
Dominic Gomez
This is a dirty as fuck sport overall, when has the winning not twisted the rules into oblivion?
Austin Mitchell
>HAM >Fastest Lap 1:27.033 How will Chocco ever recover
Nolan Baker
I won't take it hard at all, I'm not retarded.
They can't retroactively go back in time and investigate the past can they. So they will be "cleared" (read not found guilty which is not the same) because they can't actually prove they have done wrong in the past.
It's cheating where people aren't looking so they don't even know you are cheating. "Its only illegal if you get caught"
Ayden Garcia
And every other team before them who were on top had to face the same allegations too
Kevin Young
>there are cars in front >why can't I go fast in dirty air, Toto >you said I would be champion >I can't even overtake the RB dog >I wish Nico was here >why won't they let me race in clean air >my neck hurts
Jonathan Brooks
The difference is that you can easily look at and check the aero meets the specs and it was checked and cleared often. The engines are so complex you need the people to know exactly how it's working, it's like the suspension thing in that sense, it's so complex you need them to know exactly what to look for.
Michael Ramirez
>World Ranking >Rank 4 of 8250
Get on my fucking level, /F1/
Kevin Kelly
what a magnificent driver, so deft behind the wheel
Aaron Evans
You could easily make the argument the other way. In fact you could easily make an argument that Ferrari are cheaters in they're wind tunnel relationship with Haas
Never got what people saw in him other than Straya delusion
He's a mediocre driver easily bested by Amx and I don't even like Amx
Nathaniel Jackson
noice, what were your predictions of Australia?
Justin Taylor
>Never got what people saw in him other than Straya delusion
Everyone hyped him up because "dude he has beaten Vettel in 2014 lmao" in a car that was terrible for drive to Vettel as even Horner later admitted
Robert White
why are they all wearing rubber gloves=?
Jacob Hughes
Max will win in Monaco. Screencap this.
Hunter Brooks
>take a straight edge with a type of measurement along the edge >measure if the car exceeded any of the specifications Aero is physically measurable and any Joe blogs with a ruler and the rule book can check it. The engines are a whole different ball game >"Mr engineer for team, what is this part" >"Oh that's *insert lie*" No one can say it isn't that because no one else knows how their engine works exactly but them.
Sebastian Jackson
>was terrible for drive to Vettel as even Horner later admitted what cars are same for everyone
Luke Hernandez

Dylan Cook
holding off lewis for ultimate butthurt
Colton Williams
Please tell me who should I support, because apparently the drivers I like suddenly aren't good enough for /f1/
Benjamin Thomas
He's not winning a race this year. Neither is Ricciardo.
