Seemed to me that pit was to secure 2nd place for Hamilton. They needed/wanted to pit him and keep Bottas behind him. Not cool.JordanMugen wrote: ↑05 Sep 2021, 16:38Simply lovely from Red Bull, Honda and Verstappen.
Seemed more like Mercedes doing that. Pitting for soft tyres and not going for fastest lap is ridiculous.
Bottas would have anyway let him past. That's what he is paid for. So no idea what that drama was for, other than wanting to generate some bad PR for themselves.codetower wrote: ↑05 Sep 2021, 16:45Seemed to me that pit was to secure 2nd place for Hamilton.

It was a thrilling race actually! A very solid 8/10 and very good on-track action.
He already had the gap, Bottas was pitted for safety reasons.codetower wrote: ↑05 Sep 2021, 16:45Seemed to me that pit was to secure 2nd place for Hamilton.

Max may get a fine for wearing the non-approved flag on the podium, best be careful about that.

Some great wheel to wheel racing around the outside, both Perez and Alonso. A dominant drive by Verstappen. A tense strategic battle. A fantastic circuit.Mattyw wrote: ↑05 Sep 2021, 16:49What did I miss? Bar perez working through the pack and Alo at the end?JordanMugen wrote: ↑05 Sep 2021, 16:46It was a thrilling race actually!
