I’m happy to see the podium with different drivers. It kind of makes up for how boring the majority of the race was.

Hamilton was stupid for being in the wrong brake mode, but surely his team should have told him that.

Anyway…. The people laughing and talking about Karma etc. Please don’t get two excited as this was known to be a bad track for Mercedes. Coming out of here the same points behind Max is a win for them!

Big big big mistake from redbull. No need to push risky fast lap at the end with all those laps in tires. They lost big picture

Looking at the restart Hamilton got a brilliant get away and if they brake together Hamilton is first so it doesn’t look like he needed to brake super late. In the wrong mode makes far more sense.

I wonder if brake magic turns off brake by wire to the rear and you get full brake to the fronts

Max fans gonna be so mad and I ain't sorry either :lol: :lol: :lol:
Mad at Max for still having a 4 point lead? I'm thrilled it's still nip and tuck, bring on France! I'm entertained, just enjoying the show and the rollercoaster of feelings. I welcome the aneurism this season will inevitably cause.

Sure 0.2s of a lap faster than a car behind will get you straight into structural tyre failure. Of course it doesn’t. They were all vulnerable to a tyre letting go. Maybe debris on track? Who knows the cause. But the lap time won’t have been it

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.
Because RB’s front wing doesn’t flex does it 🤦🏼‍♂️
Not as much as someone elses does🤦🤦
If i would get the money to start my own F1 team, i would revive Arrows

Leclerc had the podium in his grasp there - was clean past Gasly, don’t know why he didn’t cover the inside.
I'm pretty sure he wanted to stay in slipstream from car ahead and he believed it would be enough to keep him ahead. It wasn't, but by then it was too late to cover inside line.
