How can people tell that was intentional from Leclerc? Are you all serious? :lol:
Have you even seen the replay? (I have)

He turned in early on purpose expecting minimal damage, but maximum plausibility.
Yes that what i saw and think so im 100% sure about it

These f--king super hard 2021 tyres not only forced drivers to do multiple warm-up laps (already happened in two race this year I think), but also confused the broadcasting. They don't even know which is the flying lap now, so you see bulls**t like timing on a warmup lap, and no timing on a flying lap.

Geez just how incapable Pirelli is.

This is going to help Max's title run. He ought to leave Monaco at the head of the drivers' table. I don't see Hamilton getting up through the guys ahead as they're all quick.
Why? Race pace probably be better then Ferrari, he will surely get a podium in that “dog” car.
This is Monaco. You can be seconds a lap slower and stay ahead.
If you are more fortunate than others, build a larger table not a taller fence.

He turned in about 50cm too early on purpose.

Of course everybody will have an opinion, especially the Ferrari supporters like LM.

Nobody is convincing me that it wasn’t a Rosberg/Schumacher move though.
You're delusional, that's all. Don't make me grab out the posts from you claiming you're a Ferrari fan as it would make your last few comments look even more stupid.

I really thought mercedes was still holding back, as Bottas was there. Hamilton wrong set up?

A super big shame for Max, he was on purple and deep green sector 2. Aargh.

Yeah, on the onboards you could see he didn't have confidence - several times he was taking two times to turn in to corners etc..

Undercut or overcut whatever, race pace should be miles ahead.

Come on.... Even Martin says "missed it by a long way"

That is an intentional crash if ever I saw one.

In fact, it's so blatant this guy should be under investigation.

FOM doesnt direct in monaco, thats why broadcast is crappier than usual. Unless you've got live timing there's no way you can know what's happening on track. It was funny how they switched verstappens fast lap with cooldown lap :lol: incompetence

90% gearbox is damaged. The driveshaft was torn apart and the lateral impact was pretty hard. Also, if you are to crash on purpose, you just crash the front end. Nobody's that stupid to risk getting a penalty when you're P1 and in the worst case you'd end up P2.
