You could call it going some way to making up for China 2007.

WHAT WAS THAT! WILD. Should've had an AWS tyre meter for that moment.

Juzh, no more telemetry vids?

If anybody has the access, would love some telemetry vids of this quali session.

F1TV Pro still non-existent in this part of the world.

Any bets on a post race penalty for Hamilton? :wink:
For what?
Possibly an unsafe car. I'm sure they're busy scratching their heads to find a reason. "For the show" and all that. #-o




(It was a bit of a joke, really. Lots seem to have bit, however)

Hey, i did ask if they could finish the race on these hard tires didnt i?! Man... gutted for Bottas, Sainz (?) etc but heart in my mouth for Hamilton. To be fair, didnt Hamilton have the option to pit prior to starting the final lap? I thought Verstappen pitted on the second last one?

Not for nothing, Rosberg's Championship is the only thing that lends credibility to Hamilton's recent success. Otherwise, he'd just be the guy who's had the best car. — bhall II

I was shouting at RBR pitwall's decision to pit Max.
That was a brain fade really, i would have made Max push lewis hard in the final two laps

Anyways great race from Lewis, well deserved

And again lucky podium for Leclerc

After today and Pirelli going softer next week it's a guaranteed two stopper.

Well red bull will certainly go running to the stewards if there’s any sniff. We know that for sure!

It's illegal to finish the race in the pit lane, so he was legally obliged to drive past the pit lane on the final lap.

I remember the same thing happened to Ferrari in 2017.
Weird that it hit both Mercs, I assume they were cruising around managing the tyres.
