It looks like Mercedes sacrificed Bottas there. too bad (for him), it was clear for everyone that they should have pitted him.
But it"s a good one for Lewis.

F1 2018 Season
- Thread starter pauldyson1uk
- Start date
And Kimi was impressive today, i don't get what's happening with him the last couple of races (contract renewal time ?), he's super agressive, super hungry ! that's the kimi Ferrari wants. did he find his mojo back ?
That first safety car has totally revitalised the race. NASCAR do the whole bunching up thing for exactly this reason (competition yellow I think they call it). Don't be surprised to hear talk of this coming to F1 in the near future especially with the owners being American and all.
Laugh all you like. If you are defending Max's bump into Kimi last season, your opinion isn't worth even looking at.
Why didn't they use Virtual SC? To make the race interesting? F1 is a joke
Lewis should be pretty pleased with that, got lucky with the SC but his pace was immense at times and the start was the only real blip on his weekend.
Hope he goes to town on Kimi in the cooldown room.

Deserved win. Ferrari clearly the better car today.
That might be the pass of the season from Seb
Race of the season
Won in their home
Hamilton was incredible too

They were going for a win. Looked reasonable to me. That was their only chance. In hindsight obviously it looks bad.
Not a chance. If it ever does happen, that'd be where I stop racing.
You mean, like Kimi did? His opinion isn't worth looking at apparently.
Both Vettel and Lewis should be pleased today. Vettel for winning it (can't see that without the incident) and Lewis for clawing back to 2nd.
Kimi getting a dig at Ferrari for getting rid of him next year
Only saw the last 7-8 laps, exciting finish.
How the hell did Lewis get to be dead last ?

God, Lewis can really act like a child when it doesn't go his way!
That will be the death of F1 if it does happen , do not want it , F1 should be about raw speed and power , not yellow flags for no reason.
Not just in hindsight, everyone was talking about the weird decision at the time, Horner said he'd have pitted Bottas.
Feck him with his whining all day long when not in p1. Insecure bastard.
Yeah if that ever happened Formula 1 would die.
These guys are American but hopefully they are not stupid
i think they had the same car with Mercedes. it would have being a good race as well between Lewis Bottas and Vettel if lewis could keep his 3rd places after his poor start (no kimi hit).
HA HA moaning about Lewis being unhappy !!
What do you expect , hit and in dead last , what do you expect him to be like !!!

Poor start and slipped down to third. Kimi tried to get past and tagged him, caused a spin. Kimi lost out to the Red Bulls and got a 10 second penalty, Hamilton wound up right at the back. Think he was still ahead of Perez who'd also spun and Hartley who retired so was 18th.
I'm not even talking about that. i'm talking about the fact that he left for the podium without talking to Brundle for the post-race interviews.
Cheers.
To be a sports about it. i just wanted to hear from him about the incident, i couldn't care less if he was angry or not.
Hamilton is pissed, this will be a great championship.
It was a racing incident...Kimi admitted he slid a bit and got into him....stay show some respect do the interview the moaning cnut.
Hamilton implying Kimi hit him on purpose. What a tool
Did he say intresting tactics from Ferrari ? does he think that Kimi did that on purpose ?
He really is a sore loser! God o_O
He really is a sore loser! God o_O
Should blame himself for getting a shitty start.
Haha, Jenson with the slip of the thong, saying that it's great that Ferrari and McLaren are battling it out.
What a fantastic race that was.
Hamilton was able to hold off kimi on the freshers tyres. His tyres were only 4 laps younger I think. I think its really about securing 2nd position vs going for a win. Obviously Mercedes guys gambled and I think that was reasonable at that point of time.
Jenson saying that the Bottas call may have been the team call for Lewis.
FFS Toto what are you going on about , it was a racing incident , nothing deliberate and shame on you for even thinking that.
Lewis is just as bad for the intresting tactics from Ferrari comment, it was a mistake by Kimi and he admitted it, and people wonder why fans dont like Lewis.
Both should be given a warning about future conduct for those comments bang out of order.

Totto saying: Was the Hit deliberate or incompetent ...
it's just shows the class of the Mercedes team. that's the first time they are under pressure and their true colors show.

Do you undestand now why the antics of Lewis and right now Mercedes bother me and why people are being bothered by all this.
For sure. He still finished 2nd so that's good for him.
