Verstappens tyres basically fresh because of Bottas.

Max just left that up the inside. He’s such a cunt

 

[Carrotdude]

Max is so incredibly dodgy. Makes it even more hilarious that red bull complained about anything Hamilton has done this season

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

More Horner cuntery

 

[Tredman]

He’s a spoilt little rich kid. F1 is becoming a sport for them and them alone.

 

[PuntsWolf]

That decision is an absolute farce. He’s made no effort to make the corner. Outbreaking himself up the inside

 

[Tredman]

Have that you little twat. Seems the Brazilian fans agree.

 

[Tredman]

Don’t think I’ve ever seen any driver so on top of his game as Lewis this weekend.

 

[WolfMan]

What a bloody drive that was. Fantastic Lewis.

 

[AndyWolves]

What a drive by Lewis, great job!

 

[AndyWolves]

I thought the championship was over after bottas surrendered the lead

 

[PuntsWolf]

Bottas yielded too easy in that first corner. Should have left his nose in there as max forced him off the track. Same as Rosberg did against Hamilton at Spa

 

[PuntsWolf]

Cannot get over that non penalty. Hamilton is ahead and on the racing line. Max then somehow brakes later and unsurprisingly can’t make the corner. Hamilton has to avoid Max (and was actually going to make the corner), and then Max just forces him off again. Same as Monza.

Hopefully they punish him when they get the onboard footage.

Well, Hamilton wasn't ahead nor on the racing line. Max had sneaked back ahead up the inside and was on the line through the apex.

He still should have been punished though as it's Verstappen's standard M.O. to shove drivers off the road. You'd think the stewards would have wised up to it by now.

I've only recently started getting into F1, I'm pretty clueless about it - can someone explain how the Mercedes car has gotten alot quicker than the Red Bull, is it a case of them refining the design of the car as the season progresses?

They've only been quicker at this race in recent weeks.

A combination of a better suited track that's easier to overtake on, and Lewis having a brand new engine with the wick turned right up to 11.

Hamilton was ahead and was on the outside of the corner, the racing line. The only reason Max gets somewhere near level Is because he throws it up the inside. Max misses the apex completely as he’s way too deep and forces Hamilton off the road. Hamilton isn’t on the racing line mid corner as he leaves plenty of space and then has to literally steer out the way off the track otherwise they are colliding.

Basically. Ignoring the DQ, RedBull think there is something dodgy about the rear wing, hence why Max was feeling it

 

[Tredman]

Wow

McLaren say it's false.
