Wasn't it broken? The hub was at an angle.

If there going to continue with DRS then I really feel they should look at if its really needed at every race. Today was just stupid with how easy DRS made things (Even Brundle who often defends it was critical of it today) & I really feel this is one track where its not really needed.

This is the 3rd season we have it & they really should have it figured out better than this by now, The fact they haven't perhaps shows that they never will get it right.



Webber 3 spot penalty for next race for the contact with JEV.

DC thinks its unfair, EJ seems to think its a ridiculous penalty. Were they not watching the OnBoard that was been played which showed that Mark just plain went in too deep & drove into the back of JEV?

Why would it be broken though? Didn't look like there was any contact on the rear when Webber hit Vergne

Doesn't always need contact to break.

Maybe a little harsh, but yeah, it was all Marks fault. JEV did kinda leave a half arsed gap, but Mark wasn't in a spot to overtake and just creamed into him.

Seeing a few comments on Twitter from fairly connected people that Webber has signed a five year deal with Porsche from 2014.

Radio LeMans broke it. Apparently it was on Twitter.

GOOD. RBR have screwed this guy for so long now.... I mean, let's not forget, he was at JAGUAR, shows how long he's been there.

Yes, just seen it. It's not confirmed but seeing as WEC is at Silverstone then someone's obviously slipped the info to Radio Le Mans.

Good.

Kick him out now, give him time to acclimatise to the Porsche environment, give his seat to Ricciardo, give Ricciardo's seat to AFdC and see it go from there.

Fell asleep shortly after the start, but I just woke up and one of my hero's great races is being streamed. Yay 93 European GP!

not that I want to sound the Kimi fanboy (which I am), but why is Grosjean lagging so far behind?

He said that the mystery problem he had in Australia was back again.

Seeing as he was quite competitive in Malaysia, I am inclined to believe him.

Nerd fact ahoy - Alonso's race winning time was 0.016s slower than Rosberg's equivalent in 2012.
