Toto: "Brainless.................... Nico had break by wire failure at the start straight and then he defended too hard".

Beeyotch move from ROS.

HAM's overtake was a little too ambitious, too, but it was clean.

On a different note, Mercedes sure looks like they're trying to fuel the conspiracy theory fires. Two pit stop fails AND questionable tire calls for HAM?

Nico is under investigation, for causing collision :D :D :D
Oh Oh Oh.... Nico not just pushed Lewis off, but also collided way away from the racing line.

- He was also slower on 11 lap older tyres until Mercedes decided to give them different tyres and use undercut #-o instead of team orders they were yapping about and used in Monaco.
- Mercedes = liars, hypocrites and not gentlemen. Sometimes they care about team=Hamilton results (Monaco), sometimes they don't (Spain, Canada and here).

- Grosjean - brilliant eighth, two massive stints and only 1 place lost with 5 s penalty

- It's not tyres problem but Ferrari problem they learned nothing from Spa. It only happens to them, use your brain next time. - Luckily for them they still had Raikkonen.

Yes same as every 3-4 imaginary start problems Hamilton had and wrong engine mode in Spain to absolve chosen driver from crashing into team-mate and losing them 1-2. Cover stories.

It seems also Toto is putting more blame on Nico than Lewis if I understood him correctly.
Lauda now says the collision was caused by Nico's break failure and questions if Nico should have noticed his failures earlier and should have acted accordingly regarding his defense moves.

Wolf says "it takes 2 to tango" and Lauda going on about Nico's brake problems. Looks like another difficult debrief for Mercedes.

Nope, they definitely blame Nico more than Ham. Lauda just stated it explicitly right now.

Why Always bash Rosberg, absolutly BASH Rosberg always??

I just do not get it, he had a amazing race.
He had a serverly damaged car, faulty brakes ....

He had a knife between the teeth to take te race.
It was hard racing, nothing more!
