Russel got his tyre change. really it was a no brainer.
Max will set a new record with this win, 14.
Like him or not he is an incredible driver.

You know there are only 3 min left .
they’ll have to take them off when the car is back in the garage actually.
So considering how fast those softs were... why the hell didn't merc go medium soft? bonkers
Well that … was shit.
he’s been more likeable this year. i still think he talks to his team in a manner that suggests one of them should piss in his cornflakes when something slightly goes against him, but other than that he’s come across a lot better than previous years.
One way to waste a Sunday night I guess.
I've been very critical of him this year, but that was a special drive today. Where has that been over the last 2 years?!
I guess people mature with age, or, are Lewis Hamilton.
2hrs of my life I'll never get back. A precession more than a race sadly, and we've got to endure this circuit till 2025.
Only the Mercedes strategist can answer that, its what I was expecting them to do.

Anyone know how much faster Russell went on the softs for the last lap?
Maybe because he’s had no competition or reason to get pissy
Red Bull run rings around every other team when it comes to strategy and have done for years. Best team in the pits too. When they have the best car too it’s unbeatable.
Red Bull consistently stole wins during Merc’s dominant era through pure strategy.
That being said, Horner is and always will be an absolute bell-end.

Absolute snooze fest and a great way to waste an hour or two.
King Max. Here's to ten more titles.
Why were they booing Lewis? Cause Merc?
GOAT is still a fair way off but Max is probably the best driver there has been since Schumacher retired the first time.
I’d hardly call 24C hot.
Fast forwarded the last twenty laps. God that was dull.
All the messing about with cost caps and we see teams turning up managing tyres on the hardest compounds - that should be a punishable offence on behalf of the fans. Well done RIC.
I think refueling should come back, tyres are not interesting enough
This has to be sabotage at this point. Unbelivable
So so dull. Not sure there’s anything Mercedes could have done, but they chose the most boring option.
Max not only broke the record for number of wins in a season but also number of points in a season with 416 points compared to previous record of 413 points. Quite crazy given that he had 2 dnf's in first 3 races and that up to a break Ferrari had very competitive car.
On the other hand it's crazy how Ferrari's form is just fell of a cliff.

The fact the Merc drivers kept saying these tyres suck lets do something different and they kept refusing is... a bit worrying.
Well there are shit tons on races these days, and he's got the most dominant car since the prime Ferrari days of Schumacher... Not really all that crazy. About what you'd expect.
What an idiot (max) for boycotting Sky. Whatever happen to freedom of the press. Would be very disappointed if kravitz got sacked or skyf1 muzzled their coverage. All because of the ego of a multimillionaire race driver.
Ted striking a nerve there max?

I never get these free press/free speech comments. In this case, yes, the press can write/say whatever they want; but how is Verstappen obliged to talk to them? Isn't he equally free not to?What an idiot (max) for boycotting Sky. Whatever happen to freedom of the press. Would be very disappointed if kravitz got sacked or skyf1 muzzled their coverage.

You can find it petty from Verstappen and you might be right, but I don't know what 'free press' had got to do with it.

Especially when it’s the truth and the FIA has apologised for it.
Just totally likeable not at all Prima Donna Max being Max.
He’s been SO much better this season though, except when the slightest thing doesn’t go exactly how he likes.

Why do people constantly misunderstand freedom of the press and freedom of speech? Freedom of the press has to do with government censorship, not whether a racing driver speaks to a media outlet.
if anything those early DNFs just helped pretend the season would be competitive. No doubt a big part of that is down to max’s driving ability too, but this team is just better in every area off the track, and the car has very little if any weaknesses on it.
I really hope next year the others can get on a similar level to really push him.
to be fair all he said was hamilton was robbed, which he was. he was winning the race comfortably and had less than 10 laps remaining. red bull had accepted defeat.
ted wasn’t accusing them of cheating, it’s just a fact that the safety car stole the win from hamilton. I have no idea why people are trying to get upset about the truth.
Can see it both ways. There's really nothing wrong with what Kravitz said because it's true, Hamilton was robbed last year.
On the other hand, Kravitz, Brundle, and Croft are all pretty shameless with their bias towards the British drivers, and it's a bit strange that that's the global feed when they don't even really make much of a pretence of neutrality. You can see why other drivers and teams wouldn't particularly want to give them the time of day.

He said it multiple times, and the underlying message was pretty obviously not referring to the safety car. I appreciate your posts and I think we would get on over a pint or two mate but this one seems to me to be a bit willfully thick.
As I said earlier, Kravitz is more than welcome to express that opinion on other platforms - but for him to do so on an official F1-licensed broadcast is out of bounds.
Imagine how much better F1 coverage would be with Alonso and Vettel leading the punditry. Maybe one day.
How was Hamilton robbed ?? What about Silverstone ?? Don't tell me its a racing incident ?? Cuz if it was Hamilton wouldnt got this ridiculous time penalty , and continue the race and win 25 points while Verstappen was in the hospital !!
