Ferrari and FIAT President Sergio Marchionne hailed the resurgence of his team and praised the job done over the winter which propelled Ferrari to score its first race win after a one and half year-long winless period.
That's why I firmly believe Mercedes strategy lost them the race. If they would have left Lewis out, It would have been Like Monaco last year, P2 all over P1 for most of the race, but unable to get by.
I guess you are right, though it would be interesting to see how much pace had Vettel in order to attack Lewis.
From what I have read, Liberty is the one wanting to make changes right away to increase the "spectacle". Additionally just today, Todt fired a "know your place" warning shot.
Formula Knee Jerk
...Vettel would have undercut him
This part I disagree with, as Vettel's in, out and first flying laps were all slower than Hamilton's, as I showed earlier in the thread.
In lap, Vet was behind Williams.dans79 wrote: ↑27 Mar 2017, 17:44This part I disagree with, as Vettel's in, out and first flying laps were all slower than Hamilton's, as I showed earlier in the thread.

Vettel's in lap should be a little slower as it was 6 laps later and thus had more tire wear, but inversely his out lap and first flier should have been faster because he was carrying less fuel. I'd almost assume Ferrari has a slight tire heating issue.
Mercedes AMG F1 lost the race when Lewis failed to open a gap in the first 17 laps.
Lol, defending Max, I don't think we watched the same race.
