    And there we go about turn 4. So Lewis don’t do that again.

    Stewards calling out the track limits now. Lewis moaning about it.

    Mercedes just got a bollicking about turn 4.

    Checo had laps deleted yesterday for doing what both mercs do at turn 4

    Why are they allowed do that

    They've just been warned about it. Lewis on the radio "But I've been doing it all race". Bono: "Yep, and they getting a bit bumpy about it now".

    Now the warnings are coming for corner 4,

    Lewis response is I thought there were no track limits.

    Seems like the marshalls were not bothered until Redbull told Max to start doing it?

    Or maybe red bull did to get their attention and stop the mercs doing it.

    So Hamilton and Bottas gaining advantage for multiple laps and a Merc could win the race because of it.

    Very impressed with Tsunoda. With a first race like this he has a cracking career ahead of him.

    Now ? It’s clearly in rules and it was pointed out yesterday so not sure why they are shocked now.

    Yup, some lovely passive-aggressiveness.

    I wonder was that message to Max RB’s subtle way of alerting the stewards to Mercs behaviour at turn 4.

    Belter of a stop.

    Yeah but is that not the same thing?

    It is quite obvious that the mercs had not been warned about it, why?


  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Sports Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 12,355 Mod ✭✭✭✭artanevilla


    Hamilton has to stay out to win now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,136 ✭✭✭✭FourFourRED


    Hamilton has to stay out to win now.

    I wonder did he come in a lap or two too early?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,686 ✭✭✭✭namloc1980


    Max will catch him.

    If anyone can manage the tyres it's Hamilton.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,667 ✭✭✭✭Busi_Girl08


    Max to catch lewis in 10 laps

    They shouldn’t have had to be warned because yesterday the stewards set out their stall with turn 4 and it was to not go wide at that corner. Lewis going “what me ?” is a bit hard to believe.

    Really wondering why not softs


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 414 ✭✭RunningFlyer


    This is great.

    Head is all over the place trying to figure the ever-changing strategies!.... or maybe it’s the Heinekens!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,265 ✭✭✭Gaoth Laidir


    Max 0.8 s faster lap time than Lewis now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,686 ✭✭✭✭namloc1980


    DRS is very overpowering here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,686 ✭✭✭✭namloc1980


    Very poor by Seb there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,908 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    “Suspected crashing out problems.” Haha.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,940 ✭✭✭✭skipper_G


    That was silly from Vettel, and what was he talking about Ocon changing lines..... He was going straight and stayed left

    Seb has had tunnel vision for quite some time now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17 MrSeanWick


    Vettel was silly there. Luck he didn't take Ocon out of the race

    Not a Crofty fan, but that reference to losing Mazepin to "suspected crashing out problems" made me chuckle :pac:
