What's up with Mercedes' race pace?

Lewis is just protecting his championship lead.

Smart, smart play.

... or, as has been proven multiple times, his team mate is an opportunist.

I doubt Vettel had anything to do with Ferrari screwing LeClerc. If you can dig me up a radio transcript of Vettel saying over the radio ‘Bring me in first and leave Charles out till I’m in front’ go for it.

Vettel broke the delta. Charles was driving slow, and Seb dropped the hammer. Had Seb driven slowly, Charles would have won.

Yes because it’s normal behaviour for a driver on a faster tyre to drive slower than a guy on a slower tyre.

They crossed phases of the strategy. They are no longer apples and apples once a driver pits.

Exactly which is why Ferrari screwed LeClerc.

He was and he did.

When clear team orders are available to make fun of, and wave our hands in disgust, why are so many so quick to invent others?

Yes. Hamilton had earned the position and was only in danger from his team mate because the team messed up the strategy call. That's fair and the opposite to what Ferrari did.

You should be a regular on The View...

Mercedes - Lesson No.1 - You have to be aggressive on street circuits and call shots. Hamilton is not going to save your day, everyday by chasing out the car ahead.

Who else delivered team orders today?

Yes I see. I wonder what they told Leclerc after Vettel pitted and afterwards.
They put a 1-2 over Leclerc P1.

Seb really needed this its been over a year since his last win in Spa 18 and Charles was about to win 3 in a row. Should be spicy between these two from now though.

Aren't you and JaF saying (inventing) that Ferrari gave a team order (Vettel pit) to "screw" Charles?
