    Dammit Max.

    Lewis has basically been a whining safety car this race.

    Interesting strategy call for Merc if vettel got past Hamilton, would they let bottas past ham to chase max for 5 second gap

    If it was Vettel doing it, or Ricardo doing it, people would be praising him for a stunning defensive drive.

    Depends if Vettel or Ricciardo spent the whole race whinging over tyres and wanted to loose the race.

    Keep mentioning Niki to Hamilton, hope that'll be enough to make Hamilton not bitch over the radio.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,992 ✭✭✭Cool_CM


    Fair fups to Lewis. Lucky Max didn't give him a rear puncture too

    You'd think we'd all learn by now!

    The state of those tyres.....

    Yeah I've not seen all races this year, looks like I'll be missing more.

    If he wasn't going to come in what was the point in moaning for 30 odd laps??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,166 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Never going to come in ? Yeah right Lewis you could have fooled me.

    Take up playing tennis son. It will keep you busy and in shape.

    Always find it it hilarious watching the awkwardly formal podium ceremony at Monaco before switching over to the ridiculous pre-race circus before the Indy 500

    Herbert described it as a mature performance from Hamilton :D

    First time in years I found that entertaining .

    Max and lewis tire issues . I am sure Vettel was just praying for some thing. But a podium he has to be happy with it.

    Good race for Sainz and the double points for Toro . Both drivers doing well.

    Shout out to George Russell . Was it 15th from last in a Williams .

    Kubica was in 15th until Giovinazzi spun him. Not a bad showing by Williams today (by their new standards)

    How much of that 15th was related to guys ahead having pitted under the safety car and him not pitting?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,717 ✭✭✭ayux4rj6zql2ph


    Kubica would have finished ahead of Russell only for Giovinazzi.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,523 ✭✭✭Sonny noggs


    Kubica would have finished ahead of Russell only for Giovinazzi.

    Yeah, not disputing that, but can’t imagine he would have been ahead of anyone else after pitstops worked themselves out.

    Afair it was only Perez he may have been ahead of that had pitted by then Kubica overtook both Russell and Giovinazzi during the 1st Lap.

    I reckon he would have, but we'll never know, the Monaco result of Russell 15th and Kubica 18th can't be seen as GR getting the better of RK here, what it does show though is Kubica is able to handle Monaco and it doesn't get any tighter than that, what i did find somewhat interesting was how long it took him to get going after he was spun around, took longer than usual.

    Did KMag get a penalty?
