What a shame about Verstappen clipping Vettel's wing. No way the RedBull would have had a word in the fight for victory :-/ it would have been a mental race Vettel vs. Hamilton
I agree the only thing that VES has done is to break the wing to VET.

I missed the part where Brundle was talking about McLaren and Mercedes. Did he mention anything about the commentator on the raft race absolutely destroying McLaren? I did hear him saying something about someone using harsh words.

They were reporting that Mansour Ojjeh met with Dr Z, Wolff and Lauda at Monaco. And another meeting happened at Canada between Mansour Ojjeh, Wolff and Lauda.

All I asked for was a clean getaway for everyone in lap1. That didn't happen and a great race just didn't materialize. But a superb recovery drive from Vettel (despite floor damage) to get 4th and minimize the damage. Hamilton probably had an easy win, a Sunday stroll. Ferrari managing to do something good in the race and get their contender closer to the challenger.

Kimi must take a long hard look at himself. Why was he stuck behind the FI for so long, I'll never know. Well done to Stroll for getting a point. I was thinking finishing a race would probably be his best achievement this year but he proved me wrong.

A good race by Stroll, finally light at the end of the tunnel for Williams. What could have been in Massa didn't get wiped out at the start...
After his qualifying struggles he made a very comeback, he was very cautious, but proved to be able to score some points.
I hope it helps his self-confidence.
Thank you really doesn't really describe enough what I feel. - Vettel

Looks like Ferrari have quite an advanced technology. They can remotely induce a break issue to remove their No.2 from their No.1's path.

Perez should be ashamed. He cost the team team a potential 3rd and if he had let ocon past he wouldn't have been caught by vettel so he cost a 4th for sure

Then it comes back to life the moment Seb is clear, they got some ground breaking technology for sure

Floor damage from what? And on the other note, exactly the accidents that happened made the race turn out great. Otherwise we would be watching another Mercedes/Ferrari miles ahead, unchallenged, than two Redbulls and others further behind.

I just saw a tweet from Ferrari saying so. And that Vettel was asking if he lost a part of front wing again, even after pitting for SS. Will have to read more after Ferrari have looked at the car and maybe they'll tell us what went wrong there and with Kimi.

Great result for the championship, mega weekend for Lewis with the grand slam (pole, win, fastest lap and led every lap)
When did Hamilton do the fastest lap?

nvm, I just saw, lap 64.

Other teams avoid techonology like that, by just hire a real number 2 driver... and even put thoose drivers in the slower tyre.

It's much cheaper I guess. FIA would definitely appreciate cost cutting.
