Charles Leclerc looked set for his first ever victory in Formula One until an technical issue brought an end to that hope 10 laps from the end. He still limped to 3rd, completing the podium along the Mercedes drivers.
Or he was just being nice to the guy...littlebigcat wrote: ↑31 Mar 2019, 19:04Hamilton knows Leclerc's star is rising and being kind to him reflects well back on him.

I know, it wasn't a criticism against Lewis. He has done everything perfectly well.Just_a_fan wrote: ↑31 Mar 2019, 18:55He knows it:Pete Bonnington, Hamilton's race engineer says: "Get in there Lewis - that was a hell of a race and an awesome drive."

Read back my message and point to the exact sentence that I claimed the MGU-K broke down because they were pushing more than Merc.LM10 wrote: ↑31 Mar 2019, 19:01
I don't think that Mercedes are the only clever ones not pushing the PU. Ferrari usually is clearly slower on Fridays and starts pushing on Saturday. This time they went for a different programme to analyse the changes they have done to the car after Melbourne.
So you might think you're on something with your theory, but I very much doubt that the MGU-K broke down because they were pushing a bit more than others earlier this weekend...
Agreed. How do Ferrari now handle Vettel’s No 1 position now?
He has been the unluckiest driver on so many heart breaking occasions. If anyone, it's him who understands Leclerc's pain.Vasconia wrote: ↑31 Mar 2019, 19:08I know, it wasn't a criticism against Lewis.

Boys will sort it out on track like today. No1 will get person who does a better jobRestomaniac wrote: ↑31 Mar 2019, 19:12Agreed. How do Ferrari now handle Vettel’s No 1 position now?
Hamilton in perticular doesn’t need an invitation to take advantage and if the Ferraris are going to tear lumps out of each other!!!!
I mention Hamilton because again Bottas today has shown he is too hot and cold.
Including a certain race in China in 2007.
