    Rosberg came from so far back and braked so late, it was surely inevitable that he was going to overshoot the corner by a large margin. Clearly he was never going to get anywhere near the normal apex. Especially after Max made that late defensive move to the right, forcing Rosberg to enter the corner on an even tighter line than he intendeded.

    That's what I meant by the expression 'over cooked'.

    It is just being revealed that Seb thought the penultimate lap was the last lap . He lost about 14 seconds but not a place!

    Reminds me of Mansell accidentally hitting the kill switch celebrating too early.

    Interesting that he is doing so much complaining. I thought he was over such antics.

    I watched that a few days ago and couldn't help but chuckle.

    IMO, not only is something not right at Ferrari, but something's not right in Seb's head.

    It also can be described in another way as " Nicosteer "

    Nicosteer as I read, " occurs when a car follows a wider than expected arc into a given corner as a result of the driver failing to turn the wheel enough, and then pretending that he had a problem even though he didn't."
