    Nice timing of Lewis walking behind Pierre

    This too shall pass.

    Fingers crossed he’s turned a corner now. Delighted for him.

    Well that was a race


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,570 ✭✭✭recyclebin


    Why did Perez stop on track? Potential penalty for next race?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,757 ✭✭✭Charlie-Bravo


    Red Bull delighted they have a driver to cover them when stuff happens.

    That was great fun, can we have a two lap race at every event?

    Gives me extra hope for the sprint races!

    Well that’s impossible according to many here because Hamilton never believes anything is his fault.

    You must have heard him wrong.

    Oh give it up for God sake

    No penalty, the race was over. There was an issue with his car and they told him to pull over and stop.

    Looks like they were VERY close to a car failure

    I guess the team aren't allowed tell Lewis to turn off the magic because it was a formation lap for a standing restart?

    So making up lies about someone is fine but calling it out needs to be ‘given up’.

    Got it.

    Said as much in his interview there.


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


    And to think that Perez was almost out of a seat near the end of last season. How things can change just like that.


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


    Great to see the teams being so happy with the podium and not the usual polite round of applause when Hamilton and Bottas are up there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 683 ✭✭✭Lawlesz


    Gutted for Max, Monaco and here was the 2 tracks RB were supposed to leave Mercedes for dust, so in terms of the championship they have missed a trick.

    Delighted for Checo, he's doing exactly what he was brought there to do - a safe pair of hands to pick up the scraps.

    Vettel also, things seem to be clicking for him after a miserable year unwanted and disrespected at Ferrari.

    Gasly also deserved every bit of that. Thriving outside of that RB environment, looked strong all weekend and showed big balls in that final battle to come back at Le Clerc.

    This track definitely throws up excitement whatever you might say about it

    Fair play to Max for joining in the celebrations despite his bad luck!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,990 ✭✭✭TheDoctor


    Here Max pretend to drink this can of Red Bull while you have to wear a mask

    I would say he feels massive relief looking at the final standings!

    Bottas must be in danger of losing his seat mid season. Confidence must be shot and he has probably already been told his contract wont be renewed.


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


    Feels kind of cruel zooming in on Max while the play the Mexican anthem for Checo

    Drivers, yes, constructors not so much. Did Bottas salvage any points for Mercedes-Benz?

    This too shall pass.

    Wonder will Mercedes publicly suggest that Lewis needs to learn from his mistakes going forward. :D:D:D

    Where did you call anyone out for lies? You came up with some passive aggressive tripe after some one asked if it was a Hamilton mistake. You were talking about him not hearing things properly because Lewis couldn't have admitted he was wrong. You were replying and arguing to a point that you imagined the other poster made because you're touchy over how the race ended for you.

    It's getting ridiculous. You like Hamilton, we get it. But this one man mission you are on every single week to pull up every single post on this forum and defend him (regardless of whether he's being attacked) is painful.

    Don’t think so and not sure why they were talking about fastest lap to him before the restart either. 54 points behind Lewis, woeful.

    Nobody said anything about Hamilton in the whole thread, everyone was commenting the race incident.

    Someone acknowledges Hamilton admits he made a mistake, nobody commented on it with any kind of remark. You took it upon yourself as usual with some stupid quip. Not to mention the numerous times you've lashed out at people telling them they have bull**** nonsense opinions.

    Is there an ignore function on this message forum? Iv never had to even think to use it before so I'm not sure if there is one.

    Must have been a rollercoaster of emotions for RB. Running a great race and then the Max crash. A 25 point swing in Hamilton’s favor v Max was potentially on the cards on that restart especially with the state the car appears to have been. Great assist in the Hamilton mistake.
