Don't think it's that simple. It may be a setting that only limits top-end speed. But both drivers agree ROS was on the wrong setting. Knowing this, it now appears to be 100% Rosberg's fault. Not just for selecting the wrong setting, but when he saw that Hamilton was coming on so much faster, he should've realized something was wrong, rather than just drive HAM off the road.

Not EVEN going to get into the Merc debacle, except at this point they should know better, and I think Britney is going to be gone next year. Just my thoughts.
Also, Max is awesome. I think he was/is ready for the swap from Kvyat. I hate RBR, but seeing them outpace Ferrari yesterday was just spectacular.

Is Strat 12 the setting for the formation lap?

According to the article, it's for energy conservation, which would be important later in a race (if you're ahead).

If Strat 12 was ever needed, I'm guessing you're in cruise control with a big lead and dialing that setting should be low stress. It's nowhere near 3 or 6, so how exactly does it get erroneously selected?

One of my favorite tracks and a great race to watch this year. Amazing that 5 races into the season and we have Raikkonen ahead of Hamilton in the driver standings!

Thanks. That's what I asked earlier. Just couldn't make sense of where Strat 12 came from.

True, though we'd probably have had the exact same race, but for 3rd on the podium in lieu of 1st...

What a sore loser Rosberg is ... even after winning 7 in a row, he can't concede a pass from Lewis after making a mistake and drives him off the road instead !!
What happened to the "No double move" rule and the "One car width from the edge of the track" rule?? How the hell is this not 100% Rosberg's fault and how the hell did he get away without getting a 10 grid penalty for Monaco?? This is real BS. The sport does not want a 3 time repeat champion, that's all there is to it. |
