It's misery at McLaren. Just going from bad to worse. Memories of McLaren Peugeot partnership is continually clouding my mind...

Poor Stoffel.. Let's just hope that Alonso's Honda can stay together.

[Phil]

What happened? Stoffel?

Edit: Nvm.

It time to stop hoping and be brutality honest and realistic. Honda PU is crape and we should expect nothing.

Btw: position 2 maybe slightly at an advantage? T1 inside. A good start and late braking could get you on the inside of the corner?

Example: 2014 start between ROS and HAM

Wishful thinking I would say. Sorry!

Max. Driver of the race!

Mercedes have gifted this to Vettel.

Nah Bottas was just painfully slow and made the classic Trulli train

Are Ric and Ham going one stop? Could get interesting later if so.

Will Ham get a penalty for "blocking" Ric?

Mercedes have gifted this to Vettel.

Yawn... getting tired of the excuses. Very one dimensional. They can continue gifting and Ferrari can continue collecting....

Merc saved once again by safety car. The luckiest team by far this season.

[matt_b]

So who said the stewards are getting lenient this season, talk about ruining a race at the front

[Morteza]

Penalty for Hamilton! Five seconds, which will either be added at his next pitstop or the end of the race. That's for being too slow on the pit entry, holding Ricciardo up.

Merc pushing their rear gunner strategy shenanigans a bit too far...
