This is the best and luckiest Hamilton season yet.
WTF Ocon? He was forcing a move on the leader, if it was for position that move wasn't on, to unlap yourself, Jesus.

Red Bull has been hands down the best in this final couple of races, despite the lack of power, if Verstappen had his full performance he would've gotten Hamilton again.

Luckiest? :| :shock: :wtf:

RB were fastest because their car was not compromised with a quali setup, their car characteristics suit the track (tight twisty turns, better mechanical grip on their car) and them not conservative with engine modes the way Merc/Ferr were.

Ocon totally stupid, he cost Max a win.
Ocons move was stupid yes, but Verstappen knew he was there, considering how he was there the whole corner. It was stupid to fully turn in like that

What's the secret behind Redbull's incredible tyre management? Verstappen on used Supersofts was still faster and increasing his gap to Hamilton on brandnew Mediums.
Max would have deserved a win today, though. Ocon's move was the most stupid I've seen this season.

Nonetheless, congratulations to Mercedes for the 5th championship in a row. That's massive.

Patience is the key while handling race situations, especially handling the painful back markers. Tough experiences will make Max better, all part of growing.
,
This one was not about patience at all. He passed him where he passed the other cars. Then getting taken out by a blue flagged car :)

Sure, cars can unlap themselves. This is for situation when a lap down car is faster, he does not have to spend the rest of the race behind the leader (Leader on old tires, back marker on new,etc... That happens but not this...)

I really wish Sky would stop commentary when the podium announcements are going on.

Agree. Even having the rights to pass he should have been more careful.

What people are not thinking about is Max was driving to look after his tyres (which was right) Ocon had almost brand new supersofts and had a lot more pace available. Max should have just let him go. Lewis was no threat at that point.

Promising pace from RBR, i think Ricciardo is really starting to question his move to Renault by now
