Nice. More great Kimi quotes in that one

 

"Asked if his lack of results affected his motivation, Raikkonen said: "I don't know why you always come up with motivation. If I didn't have motivation I wouldn't be here answering these kinds of questions. It's fuck all to do with that. We have bad races and it's an unfortunate thing, but the aim is to improve and get where we want to be.""

I was laughing so hard at this quote. I love Kimi just for this reason. It's great there is someone who tells it like it is.

 

I wonder if Massa's contact with Alonso had any affect on his wheel stud malfunctioning. That was a hard hit, Nico too had made some nasty contact that first corner.

 

The wheel nut that jammed was on the new wheel

 

Unlucky then. Could have made for an even better podium fight.

 

Vettel just not feeling it

Lots of updates coming for most teams when they get back to Europe

 

Probably logged into the assorted FIA ECU units , I saw that Rosberg's car was transmitting no telemetry to the team but did transmit fuel use to the FIA / FOM , and Bottas' car had no GPS broadcasting and no fuel use broadcasting

 

This is a good read
