Vettel under investigation as well for blocking Sainz I think.

Bit of dispute at Red Bull as well and Danny Ric is seriously fucked off after Max ignores some team orders

Looked to me the other way around, although I agree with Ric that it's a bit of a crappy team order.

Max was asked to move but refused. That pissed off Ric. Max was just sticking with the same plan Red Bull have used for years.

Horner siding with Max when normally he keeps out of it in public. Sticking up for the 1 driver he will have next year...

Could Ricciardo go to Mercedes next year you think?

3 place grid penalty for Seb

Marvellous news.

Only real option if Leclerc is going to Ferrari.

Absolutely brilliant opening lap - right fuck up by Bottas and then a stunning move to take back three places round the outside on one corner.

 

[PuntsWolf]

Drama everywhere

 

[Tredman]

Great start that, such a good move from Bottas to get 2nd back.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

It's great stuff so far. Really enjoyable opening. Going to be interesting to see how Vettel can pull himself through the field.

 

[Nando]

Oh FFS. He gets no luck whatsoever.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

He really doesn't deserve that. Virtual safety car and pit stops are happening. Lewis hasn't stopped. Interesting.

 

[Tredman]

Strategic cock up by mercedes again.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I guess Lewis is going to change tyres with about 10 laps to go.

 

[The Bear]

They've thrown this away. Red Bulls have fresher tyres, track position, and at least equivalent pace.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Had to pit then. Vettel is the only target that matters and the gap was getting tight. They have binned a victory though.

 

[Tredman]

Really poor, again, from Mercedes. Whoever does their strategy needs sacking.

 

[Nando]

He'll win. Comfortably.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Depends on how Verstappen manages his tyres for me.

 

[PuntsWolf]

Kimi somehow can’t get near a Ricc even with DRS and he’s ruining Lewis
