What a race! Could it be that F1 is starting to get exciting again? Was really hoping for a Bottas podium...I like that guy

Yes indeed. And sad to hear Bottas going to Ferrari. Looks like I'll be burning my Bottas shirts.

Really bummed. Sad for his friends and family. He was a great talent. GP circuits better take notice. His accident was totally preventable.

If you can get the TV coverage of P2 tonight at 7, they will probably show the wreck from P1 where the rear suspension on Sergio Perez's car broke and it rolled over. He was not injured.

With about 10 minutes left in P3 Ricciardo exploded another Renault engine unit. Both he and Kvyat were in 2nd and 3rd on the board at that point which was encouraging. Renault has to be clenching their butts about now I'd expect.........not a very good crowd on hand either. Weather is 'stifling hot'. Hamilton P1 so far for all 3 practices.

Well, the Mercedes parade rolls on......Hamilton on pole, Rosberg 2nd.

Vettel, Ricciardo, Raikonnen, Bottas, Kvyat, Massa, Verstappen, Grojean.

Hamilton 9 poles in 10 races so far this season. Rosberg has been complaining about understeer & oversteer all weekend and brakes.......yet Hamilton seems to have none of those problems.........

Hamilton 7/10 of a second better than last years pole time.

WOW!!! If you DVR'd the race and haven't watched it yet, this race was crazy......wheel banging, body slams, broken wings, tire punctures, penalties, drive throughs, parts failures, McLaren Honda scoring points...........quite an entertaining race.

If you didn't DVR it and want to catch it, here are the re-air times:

Tonight on CSN Bay Area (Comcast Sports Network) DirecTV ch 696 10:30 p.m.

Monday at Noon on NBCSN DirecTV ch 220
" " 10:30 p.m. on NBCSN DirecTV ch 220

Tuesday at 11:30 a.m. on CSN Mid-Atlantic DirecTV ch 642

Worth the watch........
