Great drive from Russell. Leading the way for an off form Lewis.

Big gaps between some teammates today for whatever reason

Lando was breaking track limits repeatedly and dive bombing, but it's a marginal collision that results in the 10s penalty because of the outcome of the incident. Stewards overreacting to the outcome rather than the incident as always
The 10 seconds was for Max steering left INTO Norris. If Max stays on the line he was on then he keeps the lead and they don't collide. He didn't. He did exactly what he always does when someone is beating him, he plays dirty and drives into them. He did it multiple times with Lewis, he's doing it now with Norris.

Should have been a stop go penalty, not the most ineffective penalty ever.

"Let's give him a penalty smaller than the gap behind him" 🤦🏻‍♂️
If I come across as blunt, I apologise, it's my ASD. Sometimes, like an F1 car aqua-planing, it gets out of my control.

They penalized Alo earlier for clipping the alfa, both drivers cars were ok.

Max all or nothing style driving once again ends the race early. He's the common denominator, love it or hate it, he is.

Norris didn't serve his 5s penalty for track limits, so it may become a 3-place grid drop @ Silverstone
Oh damn, that's very true.

And Max was moving in the braking zone (just as he always has and has always been allowed to do). Max just moved a bit too far this time and it bit him in the arse.

He's lucky to get just 10s penalty - you get half that for being on a white line doing no one any harm.
Right but they penalize things when there's a collision, not the driving itself

If as usual Hamilton wasn't this slow, he could have won it instead of his teammate.
Lewis was faster than George at the beginning and was crawling all over him. Only floor damage likely took him off the eventual podium.

Ves driving dirty and moving under braking as he always does, and never getting the appropriate penalty, and consequentially, never addressing his driving. Why would he, if he always gets away scot free ? Today's penalty was a joke as well, nothing more than lip service. Karma served him today but those are far and few in between.

Dive bombing is normally max’s signature move. Now someone challenges him max’s bag of dirty tricks come back. Matured? Nope still a dirty driver

Lando doesn't have the race craft to beat a Max that is back to using dirty tactics.
Can you tell me what more race craft can he have being handicapped by 3 critical factors, McLaren is the 2nd fastest car is one, Max is a super driver number two and last and most important is Max is a hard racer without rules?
I give credit to Lando that he didn’t bow down and went fighting tooth and nail.
Ruthless Max and I have to say he is the real Arton 2.0 and Micheal 2.0.

Sometimes. Sometimes they penalise no matter what. Seems to depend who it is - if you're in a backmarker team then you're getting slapped for everything.

Most fun race in a while. Merc clowns celebrating like they did anything good and Max and Lando back to child mode.
