It seems that Mercedes will send Mario Isola to get the constructur cup on the podium

Shittiest race since 2017 abu dhabi I must say.
For a Ferrari fan, yes I agree.

For a Mercedes fan it will have been fun to watch utter domination and even when cruising putting half a minute on the best Ferrari.
On the best Ferrari? No, definitely not. You could have told that under normal circumstances (known tyres).

What will be the excuse when they are ahead again in Monaco ?
Someone is confident? If they are, they will at least be ahead on merit without Pirelli help so no excuses then. If it happens. We'll see...

Williams driver moved twice under acceleration
So, that makes it ok to hit him? :wtf:
For the love of God man stop looking for a scapegoat!
He ran into the back of another driver and left debris on track that effected Perez. How is that excusable?

Ham and Bot discussing the start. Ham saying he should have given Bot a tow.

If Vettel had stayed out, he would have finished second or third at least. Unless the tyres were gone, which I don't think, the stop was silly.
It would have been an even better 2nd place against a dominant Mercedes car this weekend.
Well it doesnt matter right now, Ferrari had no pace this race, Hamilton after safety car was nearly 1 second faster than Seb, this is a disaster. I dont care anymore, because I suspected this. Poor Kimi, Seb was second and the team destroyed his races, bravo! I am getting used of it, and I am not very suprised.

And why is that?
Apart from some moves by alonso the racing was bad, the fact mercedes wins with such ease is bad, implications of such easy victory for the future are bad, pirelli tyre fiasco is bad, ferrari strategy was bad... Utter shitshow imo.

Seems tyre/track temps caught out Ferrari for sure.

The FIA would call it a racing incident because the only race he damaged is his own.

Also, if you haven't noticed debris ends up on the track from body parts falling of almost every race.

Indeed, I hope I’m wrong, I’d much rather Seb get back in the mix.
