Vettel just destroyed a nice race...he had tons of room inside...Hamilton gave him all the room in the world! This has to be a penalty...why on earth would he do that?? That looks deliberate to me...
it wasnt deliberate ffs. Lewis needed to jump of throttle because Verstappen went in front of him. Seb clumsy reaction. but not deliberate

FIA doing everything they can to keep this championship interesting.

Would not be surprised if all cars ahead will get a drive through so Vettel would end 2nd so this championship battle is still alive.

Will vettel need to pit again? 70 laps on softs but he needs to push them hard....
Does not really matter. The Softs are too slow. 19 laps old US are 2sec faster than similar old S. They need to stop again for pace as soon as they can finish on US.

What's wrong on Hamilton's car? No overtakes and a Blue Flag so far.

To make it even more ridiculous? This is a kindergarten. No crash can be discussed like it should be.

It s disgusting that they didn t even investigate.

They showed an overhead replay from the heli from behind, vettel s rear was squirming to the outside which is a clear as day indication he was flooring it to tag hamilton s rear tire. This is in no shape or form a racing incident.

So if Vettel gets third place and Hamilton no points, does Hamilton win the championship?

Good luck Mclaren for next year and hopefully Verstappen can hold it together today.

Yes. Vettel needs to shave 17 points off Hamilton's difference.

Hopefully power will increase, because it doesn't seem like reliability will change much from this year.

Yes, 16 points to make it 50 points between them. So Vettel needs 2nd if Hamilton doesn't score here.

So i wonder if hamilton was trying to preserve his tyres to last but now they plan to pit? His pace seems to have picked up?

Renault engines dying like flies out there, let´s hope the one in Verstappen´s keeps going, he deserves this one.
