Bernie Ecclestone's mother-in-law has been kidnapped in Brazil and is being held hostage for an exorbitant amount of money for ransom. WTH?

Here comes the rain. Can they get it in before the deluge?

Hamilton takes it followed by the Red Bulls Ricciardo at second and Verstappen for third.

Flippin Nancy Rosberg finished fourth. This screw-up keeps pulling stunts that get him penalized. Lewis is really coming on and his championship march is in full swing going into the summer break.

Shit!!!!!

5 TSN channels up here.

Both my channel guide and even the TSN website (for streaming) said TSN 1 had the race.

Nope. Fucking SportsCentre and golf......

I am choked.

Forced to be happy with the Sky F1 post race coverage.

No replays either.

On my picks, I actually wanted to put VES on the bottom step, but I thought "There's no way Rosberg will shoot himself in the foot again."

Dangit.

Yea me too 43. I had this gut feeling that Verstappen was going to get by Rosberg. I should have went with the hunch.
