Sainz has a puncture and now Hamilton has one as well, both front lefts.

Hamilton wins it.

Oopps!

I did think they should have stayed out, after Max stopped.

Merc should have probably stopped Lewis even for just one lap. Surprised he is trying to do the slow down lap too.

Easy to say right now, in hindsight, but it's not like they could count on the same thing happening to Hamilton, so I wouldn't call it "threw a win away".

If he had stayed out, Max' tire could have gone as well, so hard to blame them for pitting.

Once more, Pirelli proved they produce absolute junk.

Really, the tires were crap.

Sainz, Bottas, Hamilton, maybe Kvyat as well.

Came within 1 lap of the tyres being perfect, on a track where it’s a lot hotter than normal....teams pushed the limits and have openly admitted they knew it would be tight.

They know next time to do 2stops....

I would say unfortunate, rather than unacceptable. If this happened more frequently then I would say it is unacceptable.

Who’s going to be the first to shout that Lewis should have pulled over with his unsafe car. Twitter has caught that disease.

I call it unfortunate if it happens on a single car.
Unacceptable if it's a structural thing.

3 cars out of 20 = 15%.
4 out of 20 = 20%. (Coulthard thought the rear tire on Kvyat's car had gone)

That's more than just unfortunate.

Are they saying the same about Sainz and Bottas, or was that OK?
Nobody would have parked the car.

I guess those who say that wanted Max to win. He too would never have parked the car.

Oh it’s all over Facebook, whilst completely ignoring the several other drivers who had a puncture....some have even said he should have pitted....forgetting the fact he was on the last lap when the puncture hit.

The saltiness is delicious and goes great with my fish n chips. Nom nom
