If Perez doesnt have enough fuel does it mean Seb wins?

Yes

So Hamilton's lock up...was it a driver error or a consequence of his brakes overheating?? Or 50-50??

Lewis has so much experience now...i wouldn't expect such a silly mistake from him! Maybe he got carried away...

Anyway, Hamilton and Verstapen dropping out gave us an epic podium!! That's great for Formula 1!!

That was the radio transmission:
"Did i have the magic on?"
"Yea, but, yea just knock that off"
"I could have sworn i turned it off"
"Yea you did, but knocked it on with the upshift"

So he did not make a huge mistake by letting the mode on but must've touched the lever/button or whatever they use with some upshift.

Ah well that just sounds like horrible luck. Guess it balances out with Verstappen’s horrible luck too.

I would say it was a mistake and not luck, but indeed it keeps the championship in the balance.

Anyone see the onboard of Hamilton's restart. He kept his left hand on the upper part of the steering wheel. I've seen him do that before. Wonder if his palm hit it. But it also looked like he cycled through settings so maybe he disengaged and engaged it again

Can we all just breathe and just cool down for a bit? We've got another 5 mins before the start. We're all fans of this sport and this is something truly cruel and unfair, but this is what happens in Motorsport, and hopefully afterwards we will find the answers to these problems. Let's all just be a bit more civil to each other.

RB was asking Perez to fail sensors on the last laps, so I think it's an engine problem rather than fuel.

Who wants this F1. ? These races are far too dependant on tyres. The tyres are made to self destruct to add excitement and unpredictability. We saw today that a driver can get seriously hurt. F1 needs another tyre manufacturer to make a tyre war. Shame on Pirelli for providing unworthy tyres.

Definitely, Pirelli should be ashamed for the crap they've produced. They should pay for the damage they have caused both cars.

Speak for yourself, I want this F1. I am enjoying watching it so much more than the last 7 years of utter domination by Mercedes.

I'm going to have to disagree with this, because I don't think a driver's life is worth additional entertainment.

Kind of ironic, albeit predictable.

The competitiveness of the racing goes up, the quality of the posting in the forum goes down.

[nzjrs]

Haha good bit of banter and jokes between Kvyat and Gasly in the post race. They seem to have a good relationship despite weird RB things.

No one knows the cause yet of these deflations. You are jumping to conclusions too soon.

Loss of hydraulic pressure apparently

Doofus Hamilton. Typical Mercedes implosion. After making all those changes during the red flag. Go Checo and Pierre!

there were no changes. magic is SOP for starts and as the radio recorded, it was accidentally activated. stop over dramatising it.
