Yeah definitely. They always use the ocon move. Ocon used it far less than sauber have.

Apparently Kimi wont obey to team orders. 8 laps to go, lets see what happens
Yes, but Ocon and Toto confirmed that he moved.
Race was in Monte Carlo!
So no matter what happens after that, presedan is set.
At least all the "Ferrari team orders" and "Ferrari ruining Kimi" crap ended.
So Sauber never help Ferrari , is that what your saying?
No, I just said you should "sweep in front of your doors" before you start finger pointing

I know Ocon got out the way and I have nothing against Sauber getting out the way,
I'm just pointing out that Sauber were jumping out the way, something that someone else was denying a few weeks back. Nothing against you my friend.

LOL RAI lost over 20 seconds in last 3 laps?!
There should be a mistake, it's impossible otherwise.

Ferrari should have just pitted RAI and told him to try to do fastest LAP in the last 10 laps.
Closer to Vettel that way for a switch.

Entertaining race on a great track. VET robbed us a bit more suspense... nice TV directory (non FOM?)
1998 vibes...
Finishing races is important, but racing is more important.

Happy to see "Wannabe Verstappen" Magnussen make that move and get screwed. That guy deserves it every single race.

F2 far more entertaining than this snore fest.
If someone said to me that you can have three wishes, my first would have been to get into racing, my second to be in Formula 1, my third to drive for Ferrari.

Vettel seems to be practising for the crash and spin championship. Somehow (near rookie or not) I see Leclerc being given as much rights as the 4 time WDC next season.

I see his point, though.

But no, Vettel was never gonna make that stick.

Which is why he won’t fix his issues in the closed season. He clearly can’t see his issues.
