Glad you could see it, agreed it was unlucky for him.
Hopefully they can repair the damage.

That’s extensive damage to Max’s car - it will be tricky but I recon they can do it
They'll fix Maxs car under this red flag and he will get on the podium.
Wonder if Max fans will still complain about the red flag rules.

Yeah, it'll be tight but they did this before last year at Hungary on Max's car. They'll get it into a decent position, but won't be an optimal car for sure.
Red Bull will be requesting Bottas' radio records
Nobody's fault, wet slippey track.
Great start by Lando. Shame Bottas took him out.
What in the actual feck was Stroll doing there?
What was Bottas thinking though?
Stroll away with the fairies
Stroll forgot which sport he was in.
Those Mercs are doing a lot of race errors which benefits them greatly
And this is why we love wet races. Absolutely mental scenes!
Please don't start under a safety car....
Such an exciting start, we need more wet races

I think you'll be struggling to find any current or ex driver to agree with you there. Rosberg clearly blaming Bottas.
Stroll and Bottas
Stroll is an idiot
Unbelievable
It wasn’t intentional ... but Bottas and Stroll are 100% to blame. Slippery track yeah, but he has to keep control of his car.
No, lucky because Max (who had a start just as good as Hamilton btw) gets taken out. Thought that was pretty obvious. Just had to be Bottas who caused it too didn't it
Norris will get a penalty for that unsafe release
Agree but once the car starts to slide, no stopping it.
Bottas looked like when you start holding throttle too soon in Mario Kart.
Especially considering the conditions likely won’t improve before the restart and that Max is going to have to push it from here to try and get onto the podium .. it’ll be a hell of a drive if he manages it
The crying in this thread
What is lucky about qualifying on pole and making a good start?
Noo, my fantasy league took a beating in 2 races.
Bottas is an idiot as always. Shade of Grosjean in Spa few years ago iirc.

It’s bad luck but it’s also part and parcel of it. I’m sure there are plenty of times Hamilton has been taken out. And an element of it is also that this is part of the benefit of qualifying first. If Max qualifies first, he avoids the collision. Hard luck yes but can’t start knocking other drivers (except Bottas and Stroll who are morons!
10s drive through penalty for Hamilton I’m hearing
Stroll going on the grass!! Maybe he wasn't going to stop in time?
I don’t disagree but he has to stop it from sliding in the first place... many of the other drivers kept control, Bottas didn’t.
My Russell in the points jimmies are rustling, he has a big chance
Most importantly, how is everyone's fantasy team doing
Yeah he went on the grass to avoid the collision but the speed he was carrying into that corner was utterly moronic.
For intentional distraction for the rest of the field
