Combination of terrible driver, terrible car and terrible strategy
That's part of the Sauber deal. +2 laps when crossing finish.
Countdown clock, snazzy.
He's pretty experienced at this point, easily the most experienced in the field.

It doesn't matter who we are, what matters is our plan.
We need both, really, to make sure we're getting full points.

Watched it so many times now. Raikkonen had every right to be there. All on Vettel as far as I'm concerned. Ham 4 seconds ahead already. He's been on fire today. He's had a shit ton of luck but he's had a phenomenal drive.
Embarrassing stuff.

Hams pace??
Haha wtf
Lol, you could even argue Ver wast trying to avoid a collision with Vet first and foremost.
They didn't let him unlap himself.
MAJOR CAVEAT: That tweet was 3 minutes after the start, when everyone was throwing around accusations about who did what.
EDIT: Also, what the hell were Mercedes talking about? "Compressing the field"????

What an odd tactic.
They knew it's hopeless lol
You could say it was a "Heated sporting moment"
I guess you're new to F1?
Maybe go read up on some history of the sport and work it out for yourself.
Ferrari evoke passion in everyone, for better or worse. You love them or you love to hate them.
A lap of Singapore also takes a lot of time.
Yeah they must be going at like 75% max to be that confident.

Yeah, that was weird. Hamilton right to question it.
Some people have been watching F1 for more than 4 years.
As someone who grew up watching Ferrari dominating this sport in a much more cynical fashion than Mercedes have never done, get out with this.
Mercedes have let Hamilton and Rosberg (and Hamilton and Bottas) race openly and fairly.
Ferrari literally used to tell Barrichello to move over to let Schumacher through at the end of races.
Mercedes have also never exploited any influence in the FIA to have rules and regulations changed between and in the middle of seasons to better suit them.
So no, fuck Ferrari. Even though the Ferrari of today are nothing like the Evil Jean Todt Era, they've still got a long, long way to go until I stop enjoying seeing them screw up.
I think the idea was to make sure that in case of another Safety Car, no one gets a free stop.
But deliberately driving slower requires more focus. Singapore is probably not the track to try that on.

And I thought that Bottas might fight for p2. But he has kept his stealth race.
