2021 Azerbaijan Grand Prix - Baku, June 04 - 06

[El Scorchio]

I wonder if the ‘marathon not a sprint’ thing on the radio was a bluff for Perez’ ears and he just decided to go all out for the win in the knowledge Verstappen was not scoring.

Huge gamble if so and it didn’t pay off. Could be costly later in the season.

Really good job by Vettel today

Second major rookie mistake from hamilton this year. When chips are down everyone's vulnerable to mistakes. Some balance is restored in championship at least, even if a net gain is still in his favour.

He will be kicking himself is Max wins the championship! Lol that was at least 15 points in the bag!

Baku delivers again. Hamilton went straight, brakes too hot...Such scenes! Vettel still has it man, now he is like the underdog people are surprised when he does well. Great race...

Smell of 2011 Hamilton there.. Damn it! Smh. Sigh. Well championship goes on.

"That's motor racing."

So much for, quote, "marathon not a sprint!"

[El Scorchio]

Wonderful to see Vettel get a podium. And Perez a win.

Yeah was wondering the same. If so really poor choice

Did they send Hamilton out with the wrong brake blanking? What the hell? Why were Hamilton's brakes so hot?

Karma

Alonso somehow finished 6th he was running 11th in the middle of the race. Great race from him.

And we aren’t even anywhere near halfway through the season. Crazy

[proteus]

Huge mistake from Lewis but it doesn't matter because Max isn't there to score points either 4 points the gap and no flexi wing for the rest of the season

Well, when they ban frontflexi as well, they will be matched.

Again, please explain how karma applies?

[PlatinumZealot]

Hamilton in the wrong brake mode. Sheesh.

This is turning out to be quite the spectacular season we have all been waiting for. Man, that drama!
