He started on primes, they put him on options on the first lap.

Well, mission accomplished. They got RIC past him. No wonder he's leaving...
Bottas not fighting Rosberg at all.
Mercedes 1-2.
Hamilton cruising and is 20 seconds ahead, while Rosberg pushes and is second again by half distance.
Ridiculous pace
Seriously??? Penalising Grosjean for a racing incident????
One great battle and someone gets penalised for it. Seems like stewards are trying to stop drivers risking any contact.
PS I hated this circuit all weekend and the racing here is not helping improve its reputation in my eyes.
It seems like a classic "Poor modern circuit leads to poor modern racing"
and while I am moaning....
Teams again telling drivers how to drive. "Listen to beeps", Change engine modes.
Stupid rule change leaves everyone confused and getting ignored as usual
I wonder why the other teams still bother to show up. Only for that rare chance that both Merc's blow up or get shafted by the SC a la Hungary? If that continues next year, it'll make the Red Bull years look exciting. Remember 2012? 6 teams and 8 drivers winning races? We have 3 drivers from 2 teams this year. Exciting this...
more to Kob 'retiring' from the race, as it seems that Caterham is having supply issues. If Kamui crashed this weekend, they wouldn't be at USGP, muchless finish the season.
Probably a bit harsh yes, I must admit I initially saw it as Grojos fault, Sutil was clearly ahead going into the corner and it looked like Romain should have yielded the position but as DC says Romain was carrying that speed and trajectory into the corner and probably couldn't move off it while on the brakes.
