Moderator f1since08 Posted April 6, 2014 Moderator Share Posted April 6, 2014 What a brilliant race!!! Pleased for Force India too, would've preferred it to have been the Hulk but 5th from 11th isn't bad. I wonder what Ricciardo is disqualified for this time, can't have him beating Vettel.

Tylerrnty1 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Good on Ricciardo to bring it back up to 4th as well. Outrageous how at professional level of sporting they allow drivers like Maldonado to do things like that.....needs to clear his mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnussen was way down in 14th before the safety car came out. Button was about 6th or 7th i think so i assume Mag's car was either badly setup or he had a problem. But still with the facilities they've got compared to FI or even Williams i'd have thought they would have produced a better car. Especially after last years attempt...

Nah I don't think you're overreacting at all. I think he should have a 1 race ban too. We never saw the incident where he tried to kill JEV either. Pastorito is an absolute **** imo.

I don't think its down to the engine, its more down to the aerodynamics. :/Either way i hope the upgrades that come improve the car. Ted Kravitz was saying that the correlation between the wind tunnel and the car is good so yeah chance for it to improve. Although i think China will be similar to today, but once we're away from Tilkedromes it'll get better i hope :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttonfan Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 @jordieDAFC I don't think Button's race was that bad, he was 5th and could fight with the Force Indias for 3rd place until he had the clutch problem. Magnussen though... :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
