    This could be another lottery as it's raining right now , so not much set-up time .
    I can't imagine sliding around this place in the wet .

    I like the dynamic setting up for this race .

    Hamilton was quoted as saying that the relationship is better than ever and they are getting along great .

    Then , Rosberg was found saying it hasn't changed at all .

    Now , Hamilton's out saying Nico just did better , and he'll have to up his game .
    And , Nico then mentioned that Lewis didn't get his lap together so he'd be a big challenge tomorrow .

    So , we've got them complimenting each other , now looking like best buddies .




    Not gonna last .

    Much as some people dont. I always like Austria. It used to always provide good close racing through the field. I guess cos of the short lap.

    Rain will make it very interesting.

    Kind of reminds me of bickering kids who've been told by their parents to shake hands and make up. And, grudgingly, they both do. Then they try to out "nice" each other... in the most fake way possible. I don't believe either one of them.

    To be fair , Rosberg said the dynamic hadn't really changed at all , refuting Lewis's stance that they were all "nicey-nicey" .

    Nico also , apparently , called him out on saying he was wary of the Baku pit entrance , almost crapping himself as someone crossed his bow going in at the end of a stint , when he was belittling the safety concerns of other drivers in the press .
    Max , then was asked , and called him out on it as well .

    So , yeah , no happy pals relationship there , to be sure .
