Yeah, wasn't a great race tbf, shame Perez couldn't get passed Lewis but good result regardless After such a gord effort yesterday, Bottas got truly shat on today.
Lewis, disrespectful as ever; "it shows how much faster their car is when Perez is applying pressure on me"
It was the same old. the minute a car got anywhere close to another they washed out. Perez could cruise up behind hamilton twice but couldnt pass at all. He should have pitted.much earlier and forced hamilton to react to him. Bottas was a joke. 19 points gap now. Hamilton needs to win the sprint and the main race at brazil or this is all but over. If verstappen cleans up at brazil he will have a race gap and that is going to be huge with 3 to go.
It's rains, on average, one in every three days in Sao Paulo during November. Begs the question, why the **** they gave the Brazilian Grand Prix at this time of year!
Just to balance the geographies. The us, mexico and brazil races in one cost reduced glut for the teams Then half them break their cars and spend even more lol. In the end I wish they would get back to a reasonable calendar and not be running to virtually December.
Massive.speed in all sectors.so that's engine Botta.doesnt back him so verstappen gets the damage control done. Corner one on two days now crucial.
Tomorrow is just a case of surviving. Lewis' grid penalty takes care of the rest for Max. Question; if you get taken out in the sprint and therefore have to start at the back. Can you choose to take a engine penalty at that point?
You.can take another penalty any time in theory. Though he is in parc firme I see mercedes got their retaliation in as verstappen touched Hamilton's car showing the bigger gap. Stewards could conspire to do both
It's the right calls but the need to clarify the do not touch rule very clearly after this and impose penalties from here. The drivers should be weighted prior to celebrations too. Just cover the whole thing.
Really expecting to see Lewis going for it. He's got nothing to lose here, he's starting at the back unless he can finish higher than 14th
Fair play to Lewis, head and shoulders above everyone this weekend. Shame he (and Wolff) are being so bitter about their "25 place grid penalty" - they broke the rules around the wing and they decided to take the engine penalty, it wad no one's fault but theirs
