The TV director just completely ignoring Hamilton limping to the finish, which was probably the only interesting thing to happen since the start
yeah, always the way when you're racing, it's the fault of the guy who hit you, until you see a replay and find out they were as much a victim of circumstance as you were.
It’s a shame Verstappen started on the softs, they seemed pretty poor on full tanks & combined with Oscar’s slow stop once they got to hards where they all seemed to be doing the same pace they were all spread out. Having said that passing looked pretty impossible, so maybe it wouldn’t have made any difference. Unexpectedly strong performance from Merc, which Russell took full advantage of - especially yesterday, but good reward for a driver who imo, has been almost as strong as Max this season.
Because of his brake problems he was getting warning about track limits and even got a black and white flag apparently
Pleased that Norris scored above Piastri, with 6 races to go, the gloves are finally off. May the best man win. It is going to come down to strength of character now and maybe pit stops and not ignoring the interference that Verstappen can bring. As for Ferrari, that car just isn't up to the challenge. I hope next year we will see a car that is built to win and isn't favouring local suppliers if they don't have the best product.
Norris & Piastra need to make sure that Max can no longer win the championship before they both declare that "the gloves are finally off."
The thought crossed my mind. I am not in the Ferrari garage so really don't know the full reasons for the failure at Singapore. There may have been other factors but there has been criticism of the brake pads earlier in the year. I fully recognise there may have been other factors at play. My thinking is more that I sense Ferrari have underperformed for years and need to up their game. Lewis making the Tea break comment earlier in the year, for me makes me consider the team are not as one and that decisions are sometimes political. Having lived in Italy I am thinking of my own experiences.
