Rosberg limps home in 4th, but I think that he's only got himself to blame for that.
I was kind of surprised that he was leading for so long, you expect that from Hamilton when he has to come from down the grid but not so much with Rosberg.
Good result for Button, great result for Wehrlein after the embarrassment of lining up in the wrong grid spot.
Ferrari seem to sabotage themselves with their strategy.

Strong results for Button and Grosjean as well.

Boos for Hamilton on the podium, and it might be getting worse for Rosberg: the stewards are looking at him for the accident and not stopping with a damaged car.

I know it is hard, but Nico should have just let Hamilton pass and take second. Especially considering Hamilton is running out of engine parts and is certainly looking at alleast one grid penalty in the last 12 races.
EDIT. Nico got a 10 sec. penalty, but still finishes 4th.

Rosberg always seems to crack under pressure, and in doing so resorts to dubious tactics. If he'd let Hamilton take the lead instead of trying to fight he'd have a healthier lead.
I didn't think it was right that Hamilton was booed on the podium, though - he did nothing wrong in my eyes. He'll be fired up at Silverstone next week, so Rosberg might find it hard to beat him.

Red flag in practice 3 for the British GP, Marcus Ericsson puts a wheel on the damp grass and spins off into the barrier at high speed. He's out the car and looks ok but the car is a mess, it doesn't look like he'll be taking part in qualifying.

They'll definitely only be one Sauber taking part in qualifying, Ericsson has been taken to hospital for more checks and tests just to be safe.

Could be another weather-affected Formula 1 race in Great Britain today.
Scratch that, it WILL be another weather-affected Formula 1 race... Big rain shower on the track 15 minutes before the start.

With the comments by the drivers, hopefully it shouldn't be too long til the safety car comes in now.

Wehrlein aquaplanes off the track and out the race, Virtual Safety car.
The front runners take the chance to pit, I think that's just about everybody on inters now.
