Perez lucky too.

Yep. What he was thinking when he overtook 2 cars under the safety car I don't know.

 

[tomw24]

Verstappen now up to his neck in his own ****.

 

[tomw24]

Tsunoda.

 

[tomw24]

Be nice for Lewis if people keep sliding off the track in front of him like Perez did.

 

[tomw24]

2nd is still very much on for Lewis.

 

[tomw24]

Lando is now a sitting duck for Lewis.

 

[tomw24]

There's no doubt that Lewis got a huge slice of luck but he's made the most out of it. This is why he's so hard to beat over a season.

Lando on the podium.

Great recovery, but staggeringly lucky. As was Lando in a way. Without the red flag, it’s a breeze for Max and Charles to be first and second.

Still, it works both ways, and will do eventually for them too. Imperious drive my Max.

Brilliant performance!

I'm generally against pay drivers in F1. I make an exception for pay drivers who are so completely overmatched that they serve only to be a figure of mockery.

Long live Nicky Marzipan, F1 failson.

May be the time to reduce the 7% rule? This guy is an accident waiting to happen. Wonder how much he paid for the drive?

 

[davecg69]

Especially when you think it’s 27 years today that we lost one of THE great drivers!!

 

[tomw24]

Apart from being overtaken by Max after the SC, flawless race from Lewis today.

 

[tomw24]

Slightly ominous signs for everyone else - that was comfortable for Lewis.

Let me put it this way , there is a very real possibility that his dad will buy the team .
Also he had 5 blue flags and still acted like he did .

It’s ok though , he got a 5 second penalty .........

I said it was a pathetic penalty on the F1 thread and someone replied it was a harsh penalty . It dropped him from last , to last + 5 seconds !

Outrageous. Another crooked Russian billionaire .... the lad shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near a F1 car - he’s a liability. Sadly, what can they do? If they drop him places in the next race it won’t make any difference - he’ll still be last ....
