2) As per m5rick redbull were unphased and not worried about mercede's straight line speed here. 3) Redbull was clearly faster in the corners leading to a faster overall package as per quali showing what they could do. Yet Lewis was able to get the fastest lap with a broken front wing on the Hard compound tires, if that was max you'd be all over him saying driver difference. Guess Lewis is making the difference. 4) Yup alot of cars crashed here...

It looks very clumsy on the screen at least. Why not steer away from a car that's slowing down? It's not that HAM didn't see VER slowing down, because in the race you could hear and see him slowing down at least 3 gears. And you can see that the decelleration takes place gradually, my guess easily over 100-200M (so def. not a 'brake check'). So it's a very strange situation.

EDIT: Max hit the brakes and decelerated at 2,4 g. That explains it.

It Isn't HAM : That's just BS ! The Red Bull runs better heavier with a full tank . The Merc Rocket runs better and faster the lighter the car becomes during the race , this means faster and faster .

I also thought the outings of HAM regarding the repair of the Tecpro barriers were a bit strange.
Compaining about repairing a safety feature, just because from his car (on the track, 50cm off the ground) "the barriers looked ok".... I mean he isn't a safety expert, he is not responsible for the safety of the track and that spot was probably the most dangerous spot on the track because it was already the 2nd time a car crashed hard in that exact same spot. And can you imagine the media attention if another car would crash there and that Tecpro barrier was compromised and that driver would be injured?

BTW in quali both cars run extremely low on fuel, and you saw how much faster redbull was overall during a lap.

MAX was Shaving walls like crazy to be faster than HAM's RocketShip ! And that's why HAM's pole lap looked so relaxed , because his RocketShip has so much more power , topspeed and pace .

Then with a broken front endplate, Lewis was still able to pull away from Max. Without an end plate the high pressure air can spill over the edge of the wing to mix with the low pressure air creating a vortex. This creates alot of drag slowing the car down and causes it to lose alot of down force as well, and since it was on one side it causes handling imbalances. So that takes alot of skill to manage. Do I think Lewis is better in terms of raw speed vs. max? No I think they are very evenly matched. The place where Lewis is better is in terms of racecraft, because he has the ability to understand when to back off and when to fight - lose the battle to win the war. Max doesn't have that yet, maybe he never will with his agression, but that is what makes Lewis faster overall... If Lewis can win this season it will show you how good he really is.

the race was almost in a territory that "racing" wasnt enjoyable anymore..
cutting corners and then tell on radio that they re not let us race outside of the limits of the track.. is ridiculous.. whatever telemetry will show.. its super unusual that when another car bumps into you from the rear you wont immediately hit on the throttle hard.. everything about Max is dirty.. the pass made by Max actually Lewis and Ocon had to run wide wasnt even an enjoyable one.. cause actually 2 drivers had to take avoiding action for it.. it was a kamikaze dive that looked successful cause 2 drivers compensated for it.. i want to see fair racing.. not flexing the rules to their limits or worse.. dirty tricks.. hitting the 2nd place sign on the ceremony area where they park.. leaving the stage right after receiving the trophy.. complaining on the radio that this is not F1 if they wont let him cut the chicane for overtaking.. is pure childish and a plain crybaby syndrome.. Max has talent.. but nothing else.. well done to Lewis for winning such an absurd race..

Just saw the replay, it didn't show that much but from what I could see, can't really explain it - didn't look like VER just hit the brakes, he was slowing down and when HAM tried to pass, he clipped the rear. Did the live feed show more angles and go into a bit more detail?

If he could lose that firey agression that he got from his Dad he could have been so much faster as a driver overall. Lets hope he can fix that, otherwise in equal machinery I think George and Charles can beat him.
Like if Max wins this season, yes he deserved it but it doesn't make him better than Hamilton overall as a driver because he made so many unwarranted mistakes where he could have won it earlier if he wasn't so agressive. He will have to improve his race iq if he wants to ensure he wins more in the future and be considered a GOAT (if he makes it that far) and not just some uber agressive (but fast) driver that got lucky his car was faster during the initial part of a season to acumulate enough points to buffer his stupid mistakes. He needs to be fast and smart enough to wrap championships, not do stupid stuff and risk the championship like he has done this season. Then it will be like taking hard work and throwing it away, that doesn't make you a good driver if you are fast but stupid. If Lewis wins it will show an absolutely fantastic comeback from him being behind all season in a significantly slower car (until the later half of the season when mercedes finally caught up to redbull), and strategically picking when to fight and when not to fight. At that point I guess people will acknowledge him as the GOAT and not just fast because of the car...

He also believed mercede's more powerful engine doesn't matter at all. So he believes alot of crazy stuff.
Told you it wasn't the case, despite the small amount of power gain it will allow you to play with different aero packages without loosing too much speed. No it isn't jet mode like you guys believe it will be, but every single bit counts unlike marko saying it won't matter at all.

Some crazy driving again from Max and he was penalised accordingly - as per previous post.
The older and wiser driver is going to win the title.

If Red Bull received the call saying they had to give back the position to HAM, they should have done the same with Mercedes informing them that Red Bull was going to give HAM back the spot. At least HAM would be aware that at any given time, Red Bull would be ceding their position on track.
