    Is that Bottas being lapped for the second time by Verstappen? Embarrassing doesn’t do it justice

    He can apparently take the point away as he is fastest lap but gets no point. Nobody does

    To get the point yes but fastest lap is fastest lap. If outside top 10 no point but he took it from max

    To be fair to him. It was almost impossible for him to pass.

    Red Bull clearly miles faster and messed up a 1-2 by not pitting Perez.

    That said the dirty air was so bad that you have to wonder what happens if Bottas stays left at the start. Lewis probably could have held Max off.

    Sadly the circuit has been terrible at every single race since 2015, so not shocked that it was a snoozefest.

    Red bull would have out thought Merc and still won.

    bottas incompetence at not blocking Verstappen at the start sowed the seeds. That’s not saying Verstappen wouldn’t have won, because he would but it wouldn’t have been a formality from the first lap like it was
