Looked deliberate from Bottas. Has anyone been penalised for going too slowly before?

Either Red Bull thought the pit lane was closed or they anticipated this

If Mercedes get away with that, it might be the most scandalous officiating decision of an already embarrassing year for the stewards. So flagrantly cheap.

There is the 10-car gap rule but I don't know if that only applies once the snake has formed.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

Don't think so recently, always proved they're within the delta time.

They’ll just hide behind the safety car saying it was to be safe with all those blind corners

Not sure if that is a smart move by max


I think it was a wise move. There's bound to be another VSC/SC. Plus this way he has track position directly in front of Hamilton and can help wear out his tires quicker as it won't be easy to pass. And should Hamilton attempt a pass, well then Verstappen can always get his elbows out, and he'd be in a position to benefit ;)

Red flag. Red Bull will find damage on max’ tyres and are allowed to change them

And that's precisely why you always go for track position when you have the opportunity...it paid off well here for Verstappen and Red Bull.
