If this goes on during the season, Ferrari will hand the title to Merc if they keep screwing up the strategy.

It's kind of nice to see the drivers actually been really pushed physically again. The past few years they have been driving so relatively slowly managing the tyres, fuel & stuff that they haven't really been pushed all that much & it's given the impression that driving these cars for 90+ minutes in a race was easier than it was.

Hearing Lewis sound like he's been pushed hard during a race, Seeing him look drained at the end of makes it clear that he's been pushed hard, that he's had to really work for it throughout the race & re-iterates that not anyone can jump into these cars & drive them hard throughout a GP.



DRS...... I can't even be bothered to bitch about it anymore so, Meh...

Can't believe how Ferrari threw it away today.
No reason to stop so early. And can't believe they stopped one lap after the Virtual Safety.

Not Ferrari's fault, actually. The best that they could've done was to pit Vettel during the VSC itself, to gain like 10s or so. Mercedes thought of that too late and when Hamilton was exiting the pits, the race was already green so that's why he didn't jump Vettel with that pit alone.

Vandoorne's stupidity forced Ferrari to put the Mediums to go to the end. Mercedes had already used them so could gamble on going to the flag with it.

With 20 laps old Softs tyres, Bottas was 2s slower than Vettel on fresh ones, so the degradation was quite big. However, the gap between the performance of the Softs and Mediums is too big too and the difference in durability is not equally big which means the softer tyre will be faster the entire time.

It was just bad luck with a VSC brought up yet again by some dumb driver. Maldonado was at least funny and fast. Vandoorner not only was clumpsy but 1.5s slower than Alonso. I rated this guy very highly but he's not showing much more than Stroll, tbh

Was spoken about in free practice even. Right size, can see it from most angles.

Only punished one driver during the race so maybe they're itching for a big punishment...

They punished Vandoorne after the race so clearly they have a big itch to scratch

very dissappointed in Stoffel. 5 races so far and he has been behind Alonso in every qualifying, almost in every free practice, and in the races usually a long way behind Fernando as well.
