F1 2021 Season

This thread is gonna get salty!

Gotta be said though, how brilliant is it to have the crowd back!
 
Get in Lewis! Fantastic drive from start to finish. Well deserved win, didn't put a foot wrong! :)
 
Woo hoo. Get in their Lewis. Magnificent drive. 8point difference in WDC. Game on. (Though next track is hungry which Mercedes are poor at).
 
I do find it pretty funny how hysterical the commentaries were about Lewis catching Leclerc at a second a lap.

He's in a car that's a second a lap quicker, no shit. :lol:
so why didn’t bottas?
 
Not racing sport then. Why have two drivers if one is not allowed to race?

That's a reach. Each team has two drivers because it's a team sport.

You race against the other teams see. Bottas wasn't going to catch LeClerc nor compete for the drivers championship. Lewis getting through allowed Merc to get a 1-3 rather than a 2-3, and also keep themselves in the drivers championship race.
 
No wonder everyone who’s not a Hamilton fan hates his fans ye watch with the tinted glasses on.
I'm a racing fan. If you want overtakes to stop then you deserve to happily watch a procession.

You saw 2 other overtakes from Hamilton on that exact same corner.

So obviously a racing incident.

Perez threw his race just to take one point off Lewis. Talk about team orders.
 
Another great weekend for McLaren, they would have been pushing for a podium if it wasn’t for the long pit stop.
 
Take the tinted glasses off, he took out his biggest rival at the start, the other way round and ye would all be complaining.

Hamilton’s skill is better than I thought if he can purposely take out a rival while not damaging his own car. People spent years wanting competitive racing, then complain when they get it.

Max needs to learn from that. He had a 30 point lead and the faster car. I don’t think this version of Hamilton puts his car in a position where he potentially loses 25 points if the roles are reversed.
 
Max will still win the championship and fair play to him. The RB is the better car. However this makes the next few races interesting again. UNtil max builds up a 30 point buffer again.

Unlucky leclerc.
 
Tears are particularly salty, Pauldy, tears are particularly salty. :lol: :lol: :lol:
Well I am neither a fan of Max nor Lewis. However to say he deserved to win the race on the back of quality driving after taking out his championship rival in a corner and taking a slap on the wrist as penalty is what I think most people would be talking about. However as Hamilton fans I can imagine you being elated as that helps him in the championship.
Maybe he can try that stunt every race now, seeing that he has the car to beat everyone else comfortably and a 10 sec penalty won't hurt him much.
 
so why didn’t bottas?
Sainz could not get past Riccardo on much fresher tyres, by that account how was Leclerc so far ahead of Norris? It's absolutely insane to compare two drivers like that. One main reason was Bottas had pitted like 9 laps before Leclerc and that obviously made a difference.
 
Max got a touch of luck at Singapore, with Lewis fecking it up. He should be top of the points table had he not made that mistake.

Come on Lewis! :drool:
Difference being, Lewis cocked that up himself when this wasn't Max's fault but Lewis fecking up again at his expense.
