The F1 threads will come alive when BE decides enough is enough; ie, he keels over and when FROSTIE is back!! YAY!!!

Ive found that too. The F1 threads and comments on here have died off considerably.

Yes its quite interesting that in 2010 this thread had 171 replies with 8,409 views,in 2014 it has 26 replies and 1275 views.

I have noticed that a lot of the race debrief talk happens on the DOTR and Rate the race threads this season.

Bottas was struggling at the final stint, but what happened when he or his car unexpectedly did something?

Why does Rosberg need one more DNF to even things out? If I remember correctly, both cars suffered failures at Canada and were told to ease the cars home.

Lewis decided to ignore the advice of his team and pushed harder than Rosberg which led to his brakes failing completely whilst passing Rosberg. On the other hand, Rosberg eased off as the race went on and finished second.

I see no injustice there just one driver listening to his teams advice whilst the other paid the price for taking a risk and pushing hard.

The qualifying 'injustice' is also hard one to justify. Don't you think Lewis was extremely lucky to finish 3rd ahead of Rosberg in Hungary after nearly losing a wheel against the barriers on lap one?

I'm sorry but this 'Lewis is so unlucky' agenda has been proven false in the last couple of races.

He has had to come from far back more often, though. One of those was his fault, however.
