Vettel out, with a right rear suspension failure.

Not sure Max putting the hards on will get him back into this race.

True and Bottas only came out marginally ahead.
Lets see what LH can turn out now but i think Merc just handed him a top step championship celebration. |

Should Leclerc try the undercut?

I think i spoke too soon about the Max stop...this might actually become a race.

lol Ferrari. Amazing. What a stop.
They say that if you're an F1 driver, Ferrari is a team you just have to drive for at some point. It's special. Kinda like that other Italian thing - the Alfa Romeo. If you're a car nut, you have to own one. The passion and history and all the things that come with it. Including the pain of it breaking down in the middle of the night, stranding you at the side of the road. |

So far it's just.as I predicted. Tedious.

What is it that you want though? Constant passing and diving like Nascar or Indy? It's still a matter of whether the car and its attached parts can survive. Red Bull chewed up its hard tires in 2/3s of what Lewis has to do. It's not wheel to wheel but it's still who's fastest over 56 laps.

Definitely expected LH to get further with these hards. Surprised he overdrove earlier in the stint.

Surely LH must pit now to cover a possible SC and Leclerc no?

I think he has to stay out now and possibly let Bottas by and settle in to 2nd or 3rd. But it looks like he'll fight every inch of the way and could see them both taken out being crazy
Honestly wouldn't be surprised to hear Toto on the radio to tell Bottas to hold station. Guess not now. And there's no way 4 seconds in 5 laps when it has taken Verstappen multiple laps to gain 2 seconds. No matter how excited the guys on SkySports want to be |

What I want is unpredictability. What we have is ecided after the first lap.

It's hard to say this was decided after the first lap given the different strategies. We just had a pass for the lead with a few laps to go. I'm not saying it's brilliant, but lets be reasonable.

Congrats to Lewis on his 6th WDC and congrats to Bottas on the win.

Hope Max doesn't need that engine, sounds like he's ragged it out coming off the corners late in the race. But it's late in the season and guessing more than a few are on the run it until it blows engines |

Given the state of those hards, its as if LH was driving a damaged car for the last 20odd laps of the race.
Not the greatest race of course, but plenty enough drama for me.') |

You mean you didn't see that coming? After the first lap it was a no brainer. There was plenty of fun being had further back, but not much at the front.
