That was a bloody huge shunt for Stroll

 

[Tredman]

Ouch.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

And now a huge crash for Max. These tyres aren’t going to make the end

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Pirelli tyre choice has potentially cost Max a championship.

 

[Nando]

Shambles.

Nah, the red bull is clearly a better car. Only thing which can beat them is if the FIA actually implementing the rules correctly harms them.

What the hell were they doing putting the three softest compounds on a race with a 215 mph straight?

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I wouldn’t want to be the Pirelli rep meeting the teams after the race.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Whole field are going to be getting a bollocking for the reaction to double waved yellows.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Oops

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Max likes that

 

[Tredman]

FFS.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

What a bizarre race in the end.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Bloody hell. Perez car broke just after the flag as well!

 

[Kenny]

Lovely bonfire on the front brakes there!

Gutted for Lewis. Brakes just looked too hot and probably faded in T1.

Seems he left something on to warm up the brakes, meant to turn it off before the start, so they were fucked. His error.

Is that his first non points race since his engine blew up the year Rosberg won the title?

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Something like 54 race run broken.

I was a tad harsh. He has hit a switch without even knowing as he defended the move back from Perez and ballsed up the brake balance. Stupidly unlucky but I guess the take from his viewpoint is on Friday PM, he was getting nothing from the race and thats what he has got but lost nothing in the title race.

Weirdly better outcome than if he’d finished third as he was heading for before Pirelli fucked up.
