    Bottas simply does not want a win, gifted or not

    If Bottas doesn't get a penalty it will prove the bias for Mercedes!

    Bottas gained an advantage, Ocon got a penalty for exactly the same thing. Goddamn it to hell if they don't give Bottas a penalty as well

    Has he pitted yet? He picked up 5 places on the opening lap, he seems to nail his starts consistently well

    Rosberg must be watching that wondering how he managed to get a penalty for his move on Max back in 2016 :D

    No investigation on Bottas. FIA are corrupt of the highest order.

    I know it won't make any difference at this point, but the principle of bias is crazy

    Ah my favourite thing about racing, how they have different rules for different teams and drivers. Case in point, no penalty for Bottas gaining an advantage. The fact he destroyed his tyres and dropped back anyway is irrelevant, at the time he gained an advantage. They should have penalised him as they penalised Ocon

    That is ridiculous how Alonso got a time penalty and Bottas didn't! What's a joke!!!

    FIA shown their hand 100% in this race! At least it is very very obvious!

    I'm actually so annoyed at that!! Unfukcing believable!!

    Bottas would've lost the place otherwise! He gained an advantage by not allowing Max to catch up. His advantage was the other drivers time loss

    Speechless at how blatant it is. If you drive for one of the big three you can do whatever you like but anyone else forget about it

    Hamilton & Vettel are both celebrating with doughnuts & Alonso in the middle.

    That is great stuff from the 3 of them.
