2014 Formula 1 Season Paddock

Yep. Hockenheim had low turnout in 2012 too. Sucks to be them I guess.

The Alonso/Ricciardo duel was pure, classic wheel to wheel racing. I'm glad Alonso warmed up his comments later on; what I heard immediately post race was a bit dismissive. Ricciardo is the real thing. Vettel had better keep an eye on his contract expiration date.

 

Magnussen 100% blameless ~ Boullier

No surprise there, Massa has a chip on his shoulder and tries too hard to prove his worth. It's causing huge losses in points for Williams as they should both be finishing in top 5 every race. Massa was crashing a lot last year wasn't he?

 

2 retirements last, year. 3 already this year

 

I can't blame Massa for this one , can't blame Massa for hitting Raikonnen's car as it crossed the track at Silverstone either , and the Canada crash is questionable too

 

Its racing. They are going fast within inches of each other. One simple thing like a brake locking up or a tire sliding is enough to cause that kind of crash. All of Massa's accidents this year have been just that...accidents. Massa has just had bad luck in the fact he has been involved three times this year.

 

Racing yes, but in the first corner of the race he should have been aware of his surroundings and not so aggressive. Fernando and Ricciardo showed it's possible to race inches away without incident.

 

You can't be serious

Massa took the racing line and was in front , Magnussen speared his car into the apex , and hit Massa's car in the rear tire

Pretty much tells you who had the corner and who should have backed off

 

You can't be serious. Magnussen was nearly all the way alongside Massa when Massa cut down on him like a petulant child.

Actually it looked to me -- especially from the following shots -- that Massa picked up Bottas' line and followed it, which took him across Magnussen's rapidly advancing bow. He never knew he was there, and Magnussen had nowhere to go. 'Racing incident.'

 

Massa said in an interview after the race he lifted to not go into the corner side by side with Bottas and followed him , on the racing line , Magnussen was behind Massa on an unorthidox line straight into the corner , where he contacted Massa's car in the rear tire

but I agree , racing incident
