Forumla 1 - who is Hamilton driving for?

[UrS4boy]

Is it still Mercedes? The first race is this Sunday March 16th Melbourne Australia time. I have NO idea what time that is in the UK. Saturday night/afternoon? Anyway, heads up. Welcome to the world of turbos (again).

Just been watching the qualifying, new regs are certainly mixing up the grid now. Excellent result for Hamilton too

[Majorcina]

Kimi had a crash but the sound of thos v6 turbo engins are....pff i hate now on board camera

[Vinny]

Yeh no overtaking as they killed that ten years ago and now no sound , might as well watch scaletric !!!!

[chezz]

The engine sound is terrible...and the cars are not pretty!...New engines, will hopefully, make things more 'interesting'

Race starts at 6am

Which was 11 PM here on Canada's west coast.

I bailed at lap 23/57 live. Hamilton out (boo). Vettel out (yay). But the commercials (8 in a row at one point) are sucking the life out of watching it live. PVR'ing it and will pick up at lap 23 again in the AM.

Cheering for Button at this point.

Very boring race....

Few ,very few clean overtakes on the track

[martinjs]

I got a bit bored also.
This new 100kg fuel rule has killed it.
'fuel save'....wtf...its an F1 car not a ******* Prius.

They should have just left it with the fuel flow limit. That would have pushed them to maximize the power for a set amount of fuel however they could have had enough in the tank to always run at the fuel flow limit. They all could run the engines flat out then whilst still using a lot less fuel.
