**** both mercedes are getting close to the top! Happened last year as well during practice but the race obviously ended up very poorly!

Alonsoooo

soldmyboxster · 03-14-2013, 10:37 PM

The cars seem a lot faster this year due to the stable regs. Already smashed last years FP1 time by over .3.

Oh and lets not forget, driver's cant use the DRS when ever they want like they were able to last year during free practice and quali. so times are def. looking very good!

Excellent point...and all the times so far have been on Mediums. Imagine what the Supersoft can do!

Andor · 03-14-2013, 11:05 PM

I def believe 23's are possible for quali!

Mine wasn't working either. Thanks for that.

Andor · 03-15-2013, 01:34 AM

Yeah no problem... who's up watching FP2?

torquemada · 03-15-2013, 01:38 AM

well, it´s 6.37 AM, I´m watching

Indocti Discant · 03-15-2013, 01:44 AM

whew.. thankfully F1 live timing is back up and running.

Andor · 03-15-2013, 01:44 AM

Vettel jumps to a second gap in the mid 26's already!?! Is he trying to prove something by coming out of the box going straight to P1 both practices so far!?

Mine still isn't working. Using Speed F1 RaceCast which is alright but can't see sector times which sucks because i really do enjoy seeing where each driver/car differs throughout the track. When seeing a driver go purple makes looking at a screen of numbers much more exciting!

philswrx04 · 03-15-2013, 01:54 AM

Why did NBC put the timing/order in just about the middle of the damn screen!?

torquemada · 03-15-2013, 02:00 AM

question: which drivers are good when it rains? I´m sure Sutil, Vettel doing fine, Hamilton? Bad rain driver, I guess Button, what´s with Alonso and Massa, good or bad in the rain?

Hulkenberg.

Andor · 03-15-2013, 02:14 AM

Button is an amazing rain driver! I don't know if you remember 2011 Montreal race! He went from p3 to p24 after colliding with Hamilton in the front straight and then went back through the field to pass Vettel on the last lap for the win!

Lets see, Lewis is pretty good in the rain as he is balsy, Kimi as well. Alonso is just an amazing driver as he took his Ferrari to many podiums last year during a wet track. Nico Hulkenberg is a good rain / wet track driver as well. Sergio Perez has shown some talen as well with his smooth driving.

I know Grosjean needs some improvement but cant comment on his rain driving skills.

Pastor isn't a good rain driver i know that. Massa, not the best. Adrian Sutil i can't really remember. And for the more backmarker teams, from the top of my head, i dont think i can remember either.

Andor · 03-15-2013, 02:17 AM

So if i read the commentary correctly, Alonso was on super softs and is still almost half a second off Vettels medium tire run.

Didn't speed use the same feed, unless they changed something from last year. It's massively annoying, hopefully they get it fixed for tomorrow.

But if you look the NBC logo is not in the upper right corner either. It's like the overlay is set to 4:3 not 16:9

philswrx04 · 03-15-2013, 02:21 AM

The redbull looks awesome with that purple, it adds a nice pop.
