It doesn't matter who we are, what matters is our plan.
As a Hamilton fan, I'm not going to pretend it would have been as friendly if he hadn't won.
With Rosberg in fifth, I doubt Lewis would have been too miffed.

Ferrari never had the win this race
Probably not, because their pace on the softs was quite slow
It was never meant to be for that team.
I'm sorry.
Even funnier, I had already typed out "British" but then I remembered Wales...

Perhaps you're right. But he definitely ruined any chance he had.

We need more random slice of life chat segments. That was fun. Never forget, the only reason Rosberg won the first 4 races is because Hamtilon screwed up or got screwed in all of them. Lewis is the modern god of this track. Hamilton vs Vettel is good. They seem to have plenty of respect for one another.
Rosberg is still the championship leader and no one cares, lol.
Oh, and I know Lewis always panders to the crowd a little, but for the people paying $1000+ in the grandstands it's a nice touch.

I'm trying to come up with a Marvel joke, but there is none.
Vettel with his variant of "gust of wind". Must be a German thing.

Absolutely, the problem he has lately is that when he gets a taste of the win he starts to lose the plot.

Saw that on tv and said "the fuck's that?!?!?"
tbf, everyone including Nico knows that won't last for much longer.

Yeah. Like I said, he doesn't seem to be able to handle the pressure as well anymore. Absolute shame.
Anyway, EA press conference in a couple of minutes. Wooo!

Car's fault, Lewis can do no wrong.
Damn, E3 is getting earlier and earlier, huh.
Bethesda is like Nico, complete doo-doos.
Have you lost faith in German Jesus? What I saw was him outdriving that car in every regard but ultimately it's still not close to the pace of the Mercedes.
Their stats are ridiculously similar (last stats before this race)
Wins: 45-42
Poles: 53-46
Fastest laps: 29-25
Podiums: 92-83
Starts: 174-164
Titles: 3-4
Leading laps: 2421-2615
Career points: 1974-1974
Win percentage: 25%-25%
They're such similar drivers in terms of achievements, it's almost absurd.
I dunno, Jesus was pretty Scheisse in his driving where it mattered to close the gap.
Scrappy, that was smooth as silk.
If you are thinking of the red car that was getting flustered and locking up that was Vettel.
Yeah, probably. He had nothing to loose and had to push to catch up. It didn't work, and afterwards when it was clear that it wouldn't work he was notably slower.

2 Mercedes close, 2 Red Bulls close, 2 Force Indias close, 2 Ferraris... yeah.
Crappy in quali, 1 good race out of 10, will Ferrari really keep Kimi just to please German Jesus for another year and sacrifice any chance of fighting for whatever WDC position they deserve to be on pure pace?

Really hard to defend his performance this weekend. He hasn't had any car issues as far as we know, but got close to getting lapped.

Nah, that was Caroline Wozniacki in Monaco
Fernando says he wanted to stop, but for new tyres and at least have some fun at the end.
Nah he was trying to get some girls from Force India to chat on his Race Notebook segment, but one ran away from him.
Especially when you think that all but two championships since 2007 (9 seasons) have been won by either Hamilton or Vettel. Best two drivers of our era for sure.

Ah yes, I saw that, but I think they are matey and Victoria ran away to get one of mechanics to bring their hard earned trophy and show it in front of camera
Really fun piece with Seb and Lewis on Sky now.
