Sky's interview was probably a lot longer too, EJ only got like 20 seconds of air time with her

RB haven't broken any rules, Adrian Newey is an absolute genius
When they have been told to change things they have (diffuser, engine maps) They were the ones clever enough to find the loop holes in the first place
As Alonso said hes not racing Vettel, he is racing Adrian
Can't remember where di resta came but he seems well off form at the moment?
I agree, Newey is a genius, however, pace and development should come from genuine advances in technology and aerodynamics, not trying to find dodgy loopholes they might get away with.
The fuelling issue this weekend raises a serious trust question about the rest of the season so far. The FIA doesn't check the full 1 litre for each car after the race, but by arousing the suspicion by stopping out on track (McLaren are guilty of this too), how many more qualifications have they finished with below regulation fuel levels?
It seems as though we are heading to a Red Bull/Vettel domination era same as the Ferrari/Schumacher domination era of the late 90's. It makes F1 predictable, boring, and detrimental for competitors, teams, managers, sponsors, and fans.

first few laps notwithstanding starting from pit lane too and more things were going not his way, Vettel was throwing his dummy out on the radio and hand gesturing too at other cars if I remember.

There's no doubting Vettel is a quick driver, but he's not the best on the grid. Much as I dislike the guy there's no denying that Alonso is the best driver out there

From what I have just read it seems RB removed fuel so there wasn't enough on purpose after the quali lap, may just be the way it was written though
It seems to just be random testing aswell when they do checkups

Really looking forward to the F1 this weekend USA GP Austin Texas....... It's a stunning track made up of all the best bits from other tracks. It has the Maggotts and Beckets section from Silverstone, the famous Turn 8 multiple apex corner from Turkey, the in field section from Hockenheim and massive elevation change into the first corner.......!!! Nice times for TV too: P1 3pm P2 7pm P3 sat 3pm Quali sat 6pm Race sun 7pm
