The amount of video I've seen of him today looking at and touching cars is hilarious. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
die hard doonhamer Posted November 13, 2021 Author Share Posted November 13, 2021 That was an absolutely superb drive from Hamilton there. From last to 5th in a third race distance is mighty impressive. I wouldn’t rule out him winning tomorrow, he looks on a different level this weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginaro Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Decent sprint race, good call with the softs for Bottas, will be interesting to see if he can hold up Max for long enough while Lewis comes through the field. Crofty was creaming his pants at the final overtake but surely Lando knew Lewis had a grid penalty so he didn't have to put up a fight! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Brightside Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 5th would've been the minimum I'd have expected Hamilton to get to. Sainz was 20 seconds behind Bottas and Verstappen which goes to show the gulf in class between Merc and Red Bull. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MP_MFC Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Yeah. Hamilton was like a hot knife through butter yet Max driving fairly conservatively once he’d had one nibble at bottas was still about a pit stop ahead of him. It’ll be tough for him to overcome and assuming he keeps it on the road I guess he’ll end tomorrow a DNF ahead of Hamilton. Fancy Max to get a decent start on Bottas tomorrow and assume Perez will be able to take the Ferrari but beyond that who knows? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaggyness Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 Tyre strategy will be interesting today. Hamilton to start on mediums/hard and then blast round on light fuel and new softs towards the end? Bottas to do something opposite? How do red bull combat that? All set up beautifully. Hopefully a bit more exciting than Mexico last time out 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 Why are these SkyTV presenters wearing facemasks, outdoors, in 40 plus degrees C, while actually doing a job that involves talking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doulikefish Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 Helmut Marko interviewed just before the start on German tv saying that Mercs rear wing is dodgy and they are just gathering evidence before reporting it to the Fia It's the Ferrari fuel thing all over again..rumours then proof then banned 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarto Mutiny Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 I wouldn't be shocked if Verstappen got a penalty for that, but I am not sure if he actually deserves one. Hard to tell.ETA: no penalties. Seems fair, and the seethe will be glorious 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
die hard doonhamer Posted November 14, 2021 Author Share Posted November 14, 2021 I don’t understand why that isn’t a penalty, tbf. He forced him off to the extent that he went off himself, seemed pretty clear to me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
