    I don’t want to get people’s hopes up but it looks very dark!

    Red bull are seriously rapid when it comes to pit stops.

    Knowing our luck it'll start bucketing down during the podium ceremony

    Vettel looks to be pushing at last

    5 second penalty for Perez.

    This will make no difference

    Bottas reaffirms the fact that he is a number 2 driver yet again :(

    Has Max lapped Alex?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,147 ✭✭✭afatbollix


    Everyone has been lapped except for the top 3.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    A safety car or this race is done.

    Stroll is within 5 seconds now

    Everyone lapped except the top 3 is a bit grim.

    Sainz was closing up very quickly, at one stage he was under 8 seconds behind Perez. Seems to have dropped back a little now

    That graphic of the total race gap with the entire field listed +1 lap is about as useful as an inflatable dartboard

    what a disappointing race. boring from start to finish.

    Deep down I think we all expected exactly this.

    "Get in there, Lewis" zzzzzzz


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,880 ✭✭✭TimeToShine


    I have nothing against Hamilton but I am well and truly sick of seeing his name


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 407 ✭✭tipp_tipp_tipp


    Just add that one to the long list of dull Spanish grand prixs. Hopefully that is the last race at this track, i believe it's not on the 2021 calendar (yet).

    G'wan Seb!

    Ferrari are a fúcking shambles - he was their only car left on track.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    Max single handedly keeping the sport interesting.
    Unfortunately with pushing the new regs to 2022, the 2021 season will be a Merc rinse and repeat.

    I actively dislike this circuit, it almost always produces boring races. So I usually have very low expectations, on balance I'm not that disappointed.

    Great job by Vettel to manage a 1 stop, he was on those soft tyres for an eternity

    in the breaking zone!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,920 ✭✭✭Joeface


    Bland race.. highlights Stroll start is awesome . Daddy's team or not he had a great race from his point of view

    How did Vettel drag those softs that length . Deserves Driver of the Day .

    This track is poor . All those cars so close and no overtaking . It should have been a right battle alas no.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,944 ✭✭✭✭pjohnson


    That was probably worst race of the race imo


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,617 ✭✭✭✭namloc1980


    That was some boring race. Absolute procession at the front. HAM VER BOT again in just a different order. The fact that everyone was lapped except those 3 is crazy.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 506 ✭✭✭d8491prj5boyvg


    Hamilton 'in a daze'. Nice way of saying he wasn't in a race today.

    He had a nice afternoon of super powered go carting.

    Mercedes team reaction says it all really, just a polite round of applause.
