F1 Season 2021

[waspish]

13 laps to go

 

[hello]

Bent as fuck wasn’t it

Yep Hamilton was pulling away and red bull needed a safety car to try something different

 

[MillionMilesAway]

If you were Hamilton, would you be confident in being able to pass Verstappen without incident?

Yes. That enormous straight makes it a formality against a slower car with no tyres.

 

[discopop]

Sky are desperate absolutely desperate

Not sure you can pin that on RB, unless you think Giovanazzi is on the pay roll!

 

[MCFC1993]

Elite driving from Hamilton, almost matching Verstappen's pace.

How about on a slower car with a penchant for brake testing and swerving?

Wouldnt surprise given he had control of the car and could have limped to pits easy enough

I still deem it unlikely

 

[MillionMilesAway]

I am not in that rabbithole.

So, yes, with ease.

 

[discopop]

He’s took four seconds in 8 laps

Watch out for Gasly and Tsunoda when Hamilton has to lap them.

They are also Max's teammates.

 

[waspish]

Max not gaining enough on Hamilton unless Hamiltons wheels falls if he has got this

 

[SWP's back]

Just seems like Verstappen was bound to stop as it was his only chance, it being unlikely that his tyres will go to the end.
If Hamilton had stopped, Verstappen's tyres at the end would be shot and the Merc is the faster car.

Come on mate. You wouldn’t want to be within 100 yards of that spoilt Dutch **** if you were Lewis.

 

[MillionMilesAway]

Will this be every year of hybrids that Mercedes has won?

 

[MCFC1993]

Hamilton getting caught in traffic, should affect Verstappen too though.

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

Will Red Bull shithouse it and get Perez to get them a safety car?

No chance

 

[domalino]

Come on mate. You wouldn’t want to be within 100 yards of that spoilt Dutch **** if you were Lewis.

Look at Hamilton's reaction to P2 in quali yesterday. He didn't care at all, congratulated him, fist bumped him, and said he was happy to have Max where he could see him.

 

[DenisLawBackHeel74]

Last 10 Lewis come on !!!!!!

Do RB have a quail set up that affects their long term race plan?
