Not good for the newly upgraded merc engine with both cars having water leaks at the same time. Seems very strange. Unless they short fuelled them

that sort of tells that his performance this year hasn't been due to the car, he just doesn't want to put the effort in to be best of the rest
Say what…?! :wtf: :lol:

bad driving is not being cursed.
Was missing moronic posts for a while. Welcome back.
Another podium for Jorge, must have double the amount points of his second driver team mate by now :lol:

Very few drivers are getting so battered as Mercedes second driver
Mate. You are just trying to stir a hornets nest. No need for it imho.

Racing incident with MAG was unfortunate. He was lucky the team didn’t listen to him when he said he wanted to save the engine. His pace well and truly was exceptional

Stop it. Everybody does that and to repeat what Toto said after Russia 2018, the management would look foolish to not capitalise in these situations.

Mindblowing drive by Hamilton.
a half good race and all holy ham fans are appeared suddenly :lol:
I like most Toto's face when Sainz overtake Ham.
Apparently they open up the engine and says we are back. By the way, for showing Ham's mentality; he would withdraw from race to save engine for monaco if team accept his offer.

Good job RedBull and welcome back Merc. Great drive by Lewis.

I'm happy that Ferrari with Leclerc seemed to be the best car out there, even on tyres. Sad about everything else.

Forgot about Leclerc :?:
Even then we don't know. Charles was like 10 seconds ahead of everyone else, but how much did Hamilton lose on the first lap, and how much did he close to the leaders before hitting trouble on the closing laps ? He maybe lost a minute or more on the opening lap alone. And then having to run a compromised strategy.. He had insane pace today.

I hope they can get back into the title fight and make it a three way.

What race was Russia?
What race is Spain?

What was the points difference between Lewis and Bottas vs Max and Perez

No we know... Leclerc was a lot faster than everyone else on track when he retired, he had just done a 1.27.0 lap when everyone else was lapping half a second slower. Lec also had the longest first stint on softs.

Some people! You realize he drove the car to what could've been 4th position...not auto pilot. Zero perspective and context.

Justified my post again. Maybe while watching F1 if someone's brain is engaged (if they have), probably then maybe (probably maybe) someone can understand why points difference are there.
We need a miracle. We need only one racing lap.
