Horner confirming Vettels car had a problem

He was using a used engine so it was bound to happen.

Things getting really heated on BBC.

lol.

What did they say?

Not really what they said, but everyone was yelling over each other and it was hilarious.

Didnt Vettel win the title with a really damaged floor?

It was damaged but it didn't affect his performance.

[RevolvingPrawn 1]

Just to correct Suzi Perry: Williams signed Rob Smedley and unfortunately he brought Felipe along with him.

[AMSKRR 3]

Williams should drop Massa, maybe sign Vergne?

I'd say Grosjean. He more than deserves a competitive seat, and I'm just hoping Williams can keep up these performances with the car.

[buttonfan 5]

I'd say Nasr.

Not a bad shout to be fair

Rosberg said the crowd should read the F1 regulations regarding booing haha

[onetwothree 0]

Please enlighten me. I'd imagine that booing clause was made with Mr Eccelstone in mind?

Because you're giving top salary to two has-beens. They make more on their own than every other line-up on the grid combined.

[AMSKRR 3]

But it is a solid line up.

[Jiggy 5]

Not really. Raikkonen is done and Alonso has been losing speed and making stupid decisions for two seasons now.

[KRTheIceman 0]

Raikkonen was a beast. Bottas got another podium.

Bye.

20 second penalty for Magnussen, he's out of the points in 12th. Deserved.

I dunno man. He was too aggressive, that's undeniable, but they'd all have done the same in that group (maybe other than Button). Fair enough on giving him a penalty, but 20 seconds is too harsh, maybe a 5 place grid drop for Monza would have been better?

[Jiggy 5]

Was that for the move he did on Button and Alonso? If so, then that's bullshit. Can't do anything anymore.

He got 2 penalty points as well. 

Dave, he pushed Alonso on the grass while doing 320+ at Kemmel straight, it was a desreved one.

And now, let the fireworks begin

Well Alonso knows how to handle that after Vettel pushed him onto the grass at Monza ;) I'm sure they penalised Vettel for that but I can't remember what it was? Definitely not a good move from Magnussen, but had it happened with some of the drivers lower down the field I don't think his penalty would have been so harsh.

Lol! It'd be amazing if that's true, but I'll bet it's just a rumour :p

[buttonfan 5]

It was a drive through

It's not a rumor, everyone mentions it on Twitter.

Wolff: Unacceptble racing.

Can understand why he said that though given Rosberg's clumsy move. If it were me I'd have backed off after the first attempt maybe if that had happened in the last 5 laps or whatever you can understand a lunge like that but not in lap 2. One of the golden rules of F1 is never take out your team mate and like it or not Rosberg broke that rule. I just hope they learn from the mistake. There will no doubt be some heated discussions going on at Mercedes after todays race.

[Jiggy 5]

Oh yeah, I remember him putting Alonso on the grass. No complaints there.

Well well well. This is gonna be interesting! I imagine there's maybe part of it that's been blown out of proportion, but if it's completely true...
