Right, but Rosberg just lacks a little finesse in these wheel to wheel situations to make it work for him.

Bingo. That's why he has 0 WDC in is CV.

ALthough I was surprised by how fast Nico overtook Max. In critical situations he never manages to overtake someone slower than him, so it was surprising to see him clear Max much faster than Lewis did.

 

[Zeknurn]

Boring race. Lets hope they do the redesign for next year.

 

[Lach]

Can't believe RB went the whole weekend with those overalls. Thought that was just a P1 marketing stint.

 

[Lender]

Rosberg, what a farce. Exactly why I think he'll never be WC material. Good on Hamilton on winning it.

 

[Camp1nCarl]

"Damn it! Hamilton sabotage plan foiled again!"

I'm getting flashbacks of all the Facebook comments...

 

[nature boy]

Fuck me, Wonderboy did 50+ laps on those tyres?

 

[chadskin]

So how many laps has Verstappen done on these tyres?

Close to 60 I believe. Incredible job once again.

 

[Aiii]

So how many laps has Verstappen done on these tyres?

56, I think.

 

[Leonsito]

Rosberg thought that Hamilton would do what he normally does, backing off.

 

[Carn82]

So how many laps has Verstappen done on these tyres?

43ish? Maybe a few more.
-edit no, at least 10 more-

 

[dakun]

Hamilton being booed?

 

[Bo-Locks]

Any chance of a penalty for Rosberg if telemetry shows he turned in to Hamilton or failed to back out?

 

[Frankfurter]

I get that, but if he loses the championship on this, he'll wish he did.

Sure. It could habe just as well be Ham with the damaged car in that Crash. Ham goes all in, ros backs off -> lol ros You fool. Ros doesn't -> lol ros you fool

 

[Tempy]

Booing at the podium when Lewis comes in. Rude.

 

[Ruruja]

"Damn it! Hamilton sabotage plan foiled again!"

Haha.

"I'll get you next time Hamilton. Next tiiiiiiiiime!"

 

[Lender]

Why the booing? Lewis did nothing wrong. People....

 

[Leonsito]

Any chance of a penalty for Rosberg if telemetry shows he turned in to Hamilton or failed to back out?

Hamiton turned into Rosberg, Rosberg went straight. It's Nico fault, but I don't think there will be any penalty.

 

[Frankfurter]

We have seen people overtaking cars with exactly the move that Ros did, so I don't see why.

 

[Aiii]

Come on, they're near germany, don't pretend this wouldn't have happened in the UK.

 

[ramparter]

Austrians, Ros fans probably.

What Aii said. All you'd hear is Ted Kravitz yelling BOOOOOO YOU'RE NOT BEING FAIR BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Solaire of Astora]

meh hamilton pushes him away... race incident. Rosberg does it, what a thug

I really dislike Lewis and I think he's certainly guilty of some shady tactics from time to time, but usually, his strong arming doesn't end in contact.

Spoiler

If you pretend 2011 never happened.

 

[Madchad]

Hamiton turned into Rosberg, Rosberg went straight. It's Nico fault, but I don't think there will be any penalty.

If anything there will be questions asked as to why rosberg did not leave any space for a car to return to the track

 

[Mohasus]

Sure. It could habe just as well be Ham with the damaged car in that Crash. Ham goes all in, ros backs off -> lol ros You fool. Ros doesn't -> lol ros you fool

There is only one #blessed on Mercedes.

 

[Mastah]

Wow, so many booos.

 

[aspiegamer]

Nico, christ. I almost start respecting your effort and not choking this year and now you'll get booed on every podium the rest of the season.

meh hamilton pushes him away... race incident. Rosberg does it, what a thug

While I'll admit that Lewis is often.... generous to kicking out at the exit of turn 1s, he doesn't JUST NOT TURN to try to block.

 

[nature boy]

Britney under investigation for the move and for having a damaged car.

 

[mangochutney]

meh hamilton pushes him away... race incident. Rosberg does it, what a thug

Rosberg barely turned. That's the key difference.

If Nico had turned a bit but still pushed Lewis off, then yeah that's him Lewis'ing Lewis.

But that was just him pretty much driving straight at a corner.

 

[RoKKeR]

The stewards are on it now lol

 

[Joseph Merrick]

hahahaha. rosberg. what an idiot

 

[ZanzibarBreeze]

Stewards looking to penalize Rosberg

 

[Leonsito]

If anything there will be questions asked as to why rosberg did not leave any space for a car to return to the track

You don't have to, it's the car returning to the track who has to make it safely.

 

[Par Score]

Yessssssss, Rosberg under investigation for causing a collision, and continuing to dive with a damaged car.

Get fuuuuuuucked.

 

[Hasney]

Nico, christ. I almost start respecting your effort and not choking this year and now you'll get booed on every podium the rest of the season.

No, he won't at all.

 

[Lender]

I wonder if Hamilton overtook rosberg under the yellows from Perez's crash.

 

[nny]

The way the trophy stands is pretty cool.

 

[SunhiLegend]

 

[Tempy]

Rosberg tried a block by going deep, but misjudged it because Lewis was already too far alongside.

Rosberg called to race control.

 

[dakun]

Yessssssss, Rosberg under investigation for causing a collision, and continuing to dive with a damaged car.

Get fuuuuuuucked.

There will be no further action. Pretty sure of that.
Driving with a damaged front wing is jot unreasonable if there is a possibility to finish the race/reach the box. He went slow enough

 

[Yagami_Sama]

There is a chance that Rosberg received some penalty. He is under investigation.

 

[NHale]

I wonder if Hamilton overtook rosberg under the yellows from Perez's crash.

Nico was a damaged car so you can overtake freely.

 

[bee]

stewards penalty will just be the icing on the cake, how come rosberg was allowed to pit 1st anyway? so many times when lewis is behind he's seemingly not allowed to pit?

the booing crowd is as clueless as some on here

 

[thenexus6]

Rosberg was asleep. It looks like he if turned properly he might've been able to stay ahead or real close. Bone head.

 

[Number45]

I would imagine they'll decide he punished himself enough.

Rosberg was asleep. It looks like he if turned properly he might've been able to stay ahead or real close. Bone head.

I wonder if he just carried too much speed and was unable to turn in.

 

[Sloane]

Come on, they're near germany, don't pretend this wouldn't have happened in the UK.

It's not like Rosberg has any fans in Germany.

 

[Camp1nCarl]

Wow, so many booos.

It's almost like the race was in Austria with probably a lot more Rosberg than Hamilton fans lol! If the roles are reversed next week at Silverstone you'll see a similar reaction ha.

 

[nature boy]

That boooing.

 

[hamchan]

stewards penalty will just be the icing on the cake, how come rosberg was allowed to pit 1st anyway? so many times when lewis is behind he's seemingly not allowed to pit?

Hamilton pitted first in the final pit stop from second place.

 

[Chuck]

BOOOOOOO

 

[Pterion]

What a shit crowd.
