Bottas might have had tyre pressure issues in the first stint, but what's his excuse for the next two? He couldn't pull away from Hamilton on super-softs and as soon as the bosses asked him to gtf out the way, Hamilton gapped him by seconds. He also had a better tyre strategy than LH with track position and undercutting.
20sec behind Vettel at the end, and that's with the SC gifting him time he would have lost without it.
Kimi should have been 3rd but as always Ferrari forgot to pit him.
That's two bad races for Bottas. Spinning under SC now leading from pole but having no pace over LH and SV.
The team can say "F--k Nico" all they like, but Nico won this race last year with Hamilton half a minute behind.
I still think Bottas will win a race this year though.
