Suzuka GP comments ?

I have to admit Britney (Aka Rosberg) is doing a good job. Faced with a raw talent like Hamilton and beaten year over year, the dude kept his head down, worked hard, and had to bounce back so many times his head must spin... he might just win a championship if he can keep it up and not DNF. I respect that! Hard work over raw talent, always nice to see (all relative, he's talented as well, jsut not as much as HAM imo)... I hope his engine does not blow, just because I enjoy the "sad Hamilton" face at interviews.

Vettel's still whining about things, but Ferrari looked better. Another move under braking by Verstappen, sooner of later the kid will punt someone into a wall, hard, or vice versa... I hope it's vice versa...

Surprises of the season so far: RAI > VET in points. Palmer beating Magnussen (seriously?).. Haas needing to get on top of their braking issues, again!!
Also that "total POS" renault engine seems to be doing very well with a TAG sticker on it - not a peep from Helmut Marko, eh ?

F-1 racing may not build character, but it sure reveals it.

Honestly, if Hamilton had made all of the same on-track mistakes but didn't have any engine issues, he'd be handily winning the championship right now. If he'd had better starts but still had the engine issues, he'd be winning the championship right now. It's been the combination of engine issues and poor starts that have killed his season thus far.
