I know, the friday pratice have low value, but Vettel are only to 0,2 second to Hamilton and the meto for today and tomorrow predict rain.
Rain in Montreal are only for real driver, and if rain Vettel can win

The rain can really change all value, i think if rain, already Jenson Button with Mclaren can win, remember 3-4 later Button win with rain later are last in the race

I think we will again listen to Alonso today like last year, GP2 engine, GP2 engine, really hope it is not the case today.
It looks good the starting order, looks like a good race to watch and will be a lot of fight in the top front this day.

i think this is (another) best opportunity Ferrari have lose to win a race.
You have Vettel first, and later only 11 lap change the tyre? In Montreal you can drive all race with same tyre (but for rules you get change 1 time). Very bad strategy, Ferrari have scream to win

More than a great start from Vettel it was a very bad one from Hamilton who only was caring to not let Nico Rosberg pass as he is his main rival, nor vettel nor ferrari. Ferrari its like this since the time of Fernando Alonso and is the same, they can win an occasional race, but that is not enough to win the championship, so Hamilton was right to only care about Rosberg at the start of the race and making a very very slow start.

I quit watching F1 since they switched to the V6 turbo.  To my surprise, Mercedes without Ross Brawn is dominating the field.  What exactly happened to Redbull Racing?  Is Adrian Newey still with them?

Redbull have bad engine, Renault (and official renault team are in the last position of the grid to every race).

Newey contunie work in red bull, but not is present to all gp, work more in office and with another project of redbull, out the f1
