Mad Max is off in the gravel, with a right rear tyre failure. FCY.

If I was Bottas I'd collect the pay cheque for a wee while and accept the reality of these decisions and go off elsewhere later lol. |

Russell's has had a big off, bits of car all over the track.

I'm not wearing a tin foil hat. I don't even think Bottas is that good (or good enough for that seat). I'm just looking at the last 3 decision and thinking the justification for the previous decision seems to get another astrix when the next one comes along. Sorry, I'll not bother reading anything into anything...

Stroll runs over his pit crew and Racing Point still manage a stop faster than Ferrari can.

Also I love George, but that was "Ericson hit me" level of stupid.

Can Bottas take it to his team mate here?
If he cant then surely the debate on whether or not Merc should treat Bottas as equal is over? |

Caveat: it may well be that Hamilton going long today was less of a risk than Bottas going on to softer tires last time. So maybe not comparing like with like. Another theory: Hamilton is so much better than Bottas that he is able to execute a wider range of alternative strategies and the team knows this and thus lets him try things they don't believe Bottas could pull off. |

That was close. Perez nearly collected Albon.

Congrats to Lewis, yet another win and congrats to Mercedes on their 7th WCC. Good to see Danny Ric get another podium.

A lot of daft stuff costing a lot of points today:
Albon spinning Russell crashing Gasly PU failure Vettel asking Ferrari to change his tyres Perez being pitted and giving up track position Perez should be really questioning that one |

Yet again Mercedes favor Hamilton. This time by letting him drive fast. When will they let Bottas drive as fast Hamilton?
Albon, nooooooooo. Russell, NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Not good there. Location checks out. |

The debris removed from Bottas car was Vettels front end endplate.

More like the location didn't check out for either Albon or Russell.
