Because you disagree doesn’t mean it is a troll post, ever thought about that?
I think accusing a team of crashing into another driver as a race tactic would be a troll post, regardless what team it was. Ever thought about that?
He is not saying that, just the punishment of 5 seconds is a joke and this is not the first time Russell gets away with his kamikaze runs.
"Typical Mercedes tactics" is what was said. So yes, he did say that.

As per tradition, Ferrari was too slow on the pit work, otherwise Shall would´ve stayed ahead of Perez.

Kudos to Valteri btw. Afterall, managing to bring a SC on such a track is quite a feat

Russell radio on lap 1:

"He just cut across me"

Standard.

Chaz made a sharp left into Russell’s path, lots of steering. Probably why the penalty was only 5 secs.

It is getting a bit tiresome now, not sure what level of accident will have to occur for him to accept blame.

By saying 'Typical Mercedes tactics" you are essentially saying Mercedes condones crashing out competitors?

He went in too hot, that's all. Not great for Sainz but not premeditated.

Lucky pitstop for Leclerc.
