Having initially dropped down to third place, Lewis Hamilton fought his way back up to first to win the Portuguese Grand Prix. Verstappen and Bottas were close throughout the race and completed the podium.
I agree. This year, top 4 is on mediums whilst last year only the Mercs were on mediums.
Not BS. The car was expected to dominate this year but they lost more than their rivals. Now its all about getting that nagging instabilty out of the rear end and returning back to leading races by thirty seconds.
Not gonna happen bruv. RBR is too fast over the race. If Merc wins it'll be by paper thin margins.PlatinumZealot wrote: ↑01 May 2021, 19:21Not BS.

I dont believe so its very early in the season and Mercedes know they have a fight this year they will not risk such.
That narrative was created to tell us how Max threw the title away and Hamilton stole the title in a slower car same as is peddled about 2017 and 2018. Max is closer then ever before but there is a difference.
This race won't be indicative of the pecking order. Tyres aren't working for anyone and the wind is adding more variabilitygrubschumi13 wrote: ↑01 May 2021, 20:07That narrative was created to tell us how Max threw the title away and Hamilton stole the title in a slower car same as is peddled about 2017 and 2018.

One bad sign for the Honda fans is that this weekend both Bottas and Hamilton are fast. It is the first time this year that Bottas is on pace with Hamilton. To me this suggests that the Mercedes is solving their issues and the car is returning to the devastatingly neutral balance it had last year. If this is the case, then it is bye bye Redbull.godlameroso wrote: ↑01 May 2021, 19:25Not gonna happen bruv. RBR is too fast over the race.

Totally disagree. Mercedes have the fastest car, as shown by the 1-2 and crazy pace on the mediums.godlameroso wrote: ↑01 May 2021, 18:24RBR has a faster race car still. It'll be very close tomorrow, I hope Bottas wins this one, or Perez.
Yes, Saturdays like this where he’s on the pace of Hamilton.Mchamilton wrote: ↑01 May 2021, 19:50Saturdays like this? Scrapes pole by 0.07 seconds from Hamilton who clearly had a shocker of a lap. T13 and 14 onboard with Hamilton were terrible.
