    Such a whinge wolff.

    This stuff needs to stop, they should not have the ability to be in the ear of the race officials constantly.

    Merc dont like to race, they like to win the the steward suffice if they can.

    What about us fans who just enjoyed that dice and want to see racing?

    Completely wasted. Bottas has had the best car for years.and never got close. Rosberg of all people got closer.

    Rosberg was a good driver. I dunno why people don't rate him.

    I think they've underfueled Perez to keep him in play at the start of the race. He seems to be struggling now despite having newer tyres than the top 2.

    He was "too nice"

    The difference between bottas.and him is consistent qualifying. Neither were racers like Hamilton. One decided not to be bullied any more and won.

    Look at bottas now, le cleric weaves a bit and bottas backs totally out so will trundle around for laps rather than sail by.

    I presume your perception is as a hamilton no 1 and anyone else is there to help?

    Cos frankly to me as a non fan of either teams or drivers, I want to see racing to entertain not a procession.

    Rosberg would happily go wheel to wheel with Hamilton. He was no push over.

    Unless a wheel nut sticks now hamilton has this won easy. He can now pit when verstappen does.

    I think even if a wheel it does stick hamilton would catch verstappen.

    This is a procession

    Hmmm season 2 maybe but the first season hamilton bullied him off track and schooled him.

    Rosberg was even quoted as saying what he needed to do to win and then he retired after. Good for him imo as he stood up to it.

    Parking in the worst place possible to generate a safety car scenario.

    No not reallly .

    Valtteri is team mate to one of the fastest drivers of this generation .

    No way could he be expected to do more than he has IMHO .

    I look forwards to seeing George up against Lewis next year .

    will he ( GR ) fall flat on his face ?
