He's already in front of raikkonen after he pits.

Ferrari is deliberately tanking Raikkonen's race to benefit Vettel. There's zero other justification for throwing him way back in 5th after his stop, waaaaaay behind Hamilton now. Mind you the entire top 5 is so far in front they could all take an extra stop and come out in front of P6, lol.

Bottas and Raikkonem is always dangerous.

You had one job Kimi! Didn't even try to hold up Botas...

It doesn't matter who we are, what matters is our plan.
And that's an issue with balance not specifically a problem with Hamilton managing tyres, which is what we're talking about.

Kimi is so useless.

There will be no rain.
Massa hasn't pitted and is still setting green sector times. Dammit Pirelli.
Hmm... Raikkonen might have a shot at Hamilton by the end.

Man i wonder who decides on the setup of the car. I know he can do no wrong with you but he had issues with tyres since he was at McLaren.

Just like Vettel can't overtake.

Ah, that's how low you want to stoop. Not for me, have fun believing what you want.
Can't present counter arguments so just change the topic.
Oh look who's struggling on his tyres just now must be the car with all the issues bottas had earlier.

Not sure if Hamilton tyres will last until the end of the race.

So you lot don't think he pushed too hard early on trying to catch Ricciardo?

Vandoorne needs to be ejected after this race. Worst rookie season since Yoong? FFS get Button in for the rest of the season, this guy is an absolute joke.

Such a boring race. Show more helicopter shots please.
I think that ship has sailed. 80% chance of rain in F1 = 0% chance of rain. Can't believe I fell for it again.
Crofty moaning about blue flags again.
Speaking of absolute jokes of a bloke. Hi Wax, how you doing?
How do you feel knowing that Vandorne has been confirmed for McLaren next season?
It's not hyperbole if it's true.
Cant blame him. Its a crap car and getting hit with penalties etc. And that for your rookie year is isnt ideal.
And you have Alonso as a teammate also.

Somebody run over your dog today, or what?
You are entering a topic of conversation about a trend in Hamilton's ability to manage tyres by continually using this one race as "evidence" - which is a poor choice of word given that the blistering is so severe it's very unlikely to be his racecraft.
There are just as many occasions where he's outperformed other drivers on older tyres, or happily stretched them where others are struggling.
But I know you'll attack anything regarding Hamilton.
Great drivers find a way to get noticed, even in underpowered cars. Look at his teammate in 01.
The Engine package McLaren have simply isn't good enough. Couple that with several problems McLaren have with their gearbox and the chassis itself, and it's damn near impossible to make yourself look good in what's essentially a shitbox on your rookie year.
