We can forget it. 50 points swing by 2 crashes into Max.

Strange isn’t it?

Max will probably use 4 or 5 engine this year also with the crash…

Alonso legend saved the day from being a complete disaster. Gasly taking fastest lap point also doesn't hurt. We'll see if it makes any difference in the long run.

This is going to be so hard for the team going into the summer break.

The worst thing is not losing the lead of the championship, it's the fact Mercedes have fixed their aero issues and are now much faster (than they were). All things being equal I think Max would have probably finished 3rd today after what we saw in the FP sessions and then reinforced in qualifying.

It could have been a lot worse. Only 6 points behind. It's still game on if RB can find a bit more of pace. But they need to forget about WCC

Whatever happens Max and RedBull Honda are the true champions in my book. Max was a good sport to finish the race and Pierre putting in the fastest lap was a must, good call.

75 points loss in total for max. 50 by merc and another 25 by servile friend pirelli. Is it possible to boycott championship and pull out and leave a blot on merc history they always gonna regret.

I just hope luck evens out. We just need one hamilton dnf and merc will crumble like pack of cards. If i was tsunoda today i would have crashed into hamilton today :) considering reputation he has.

I heard Perez saying, his PU is also gone due to the damage. Was that right? There couldn't have been any worst way that Red Bull and Max could have lost their lead. They have suffered massively with the cost cap adding insult to injury.

I have never seen one driver being so lucky that, the very reason to be leading a championship is through luck. It's simply unbelievable. Not just Hamilton has got lucky in disastrous scenarios, but Max suffering all the bad luck is just beyond belief.

The 3rd place in quali did hurt much more than we could think of. Imagine VER would have started from second, I bet he could have stayed out of the mayhem.

But still two times a merc professionally destroyed the race of the main competitor. Thats looks extremely unlucky or there is more to it.

How, he was well clear of the pack before turn 1. Absolutely no difference from a P2 start. He also took a very carefull line. But then Miley Cyrus came in like a wrecking ball. Game over. Again. What a bad luck.

Yes, it is perplexing. So unfortunate Bottas was unaware of the corner. Oh well.
