Lol, wat.

Mercedes we're told a year before everyone else what the new engine specs were. Clearly.

 

[NewDust]

Fair to assume that wet + night = safety car start from here on out?

Wet and night literally had no bearing on the start crash.

 

[kharma45]

Fair to assume that wet + night = safety car start from here on out?

No. None of that was the reason Vettel did what he did

 

[BigAl1992]

If two cars crashed now, wehrlein would still finish outside of the points lol

Yes. He's too far behind to unlap himself.

 

[Lach]

Can't believe I voted for Palmer as driver of the race.

Technically it probably would have to go to Lewis.

 

[hamchan]

Yeah pretty boring race in the end eh.

 

[thenexus6]

Disappointed with Ric this race never seemed to have pace to catch up.

Happy for Palmer and Vandoorne in the top ten, and 4th highest finish for Sainz.

 

[nny]

Palmer showing Hulk who's the best driver in the team.

 

[DBT85]

He's not happy with these points when he should be on the top step.

He's not been good enough with 3 others crashing. He was never going to do it without.

 

[Grug]

I don't think it caused the start crash. Who else has crashed, Kvyat (a given) and Ericsson? Nothing major.

Fair point. There seemed to be some concerned sounding drivers on the formation lap though.

 

[Hasney]

No. None of that was the reason Vettel did what he did

Maybe he is a werewolf gremlin and the .soon plus eater made him do that.

 

[NewDust]

Lol Hamilton extending the race by one lap.

 

[djplaeskool]

Well the race sort of petered out there.
Ham probably sealed the deal.

 

[nny]

Can't believe I voted for Palmer as driver of the race.

Technically it probably would have to go to Lewis.

I think Wehrlein's double overtake on Hulk and Kmag in the end tipped the scale for him.

 

[Ruruja]

Palmer's a beast.

 

[DBT85]

Literally the best possible outcome for Hamilton. Extending by 25 points on one of their worst possible tracks.

 

[BigAl1992]

And another lap! Good god.

 

[dakun]

Ermm were the rules changed?

 

[nekkid]

Mercedes we're told a year before everyone else what the new engine specs were. Clearly.

Haha yeah, that's obviously what happened.

 

[Grug]

Ricciardo to be summoned to the stewards to answer for such a flaccid drive.

Fine him.

 

[EnlightenedMint]

Watch someone crash

 

[kharma45]

A lot of things happened yet still a dull race

 

[Danielsan]

Literally the best possible outcome for Hamilton. Extending by 25 points on one of their worst possible tracks.

Hamilton got the championship gifted today.

 

[Juicy Bob]

This is literally the longest continuous grand prix I've ever seen in my life.

 

[JDB]

Just keep adding laps until Ric passes Lewis please

 

[JadedWriter]

Literally the best possible outcome for Hamilton. Extending by 25 points on one of their worst possible tracks.

I sure as shit didn't expect this outcome. Was there any video reaction from Mercedes when the start carnage happened?

 

[killer_clank]

Incredible from HAM today. Got his miracle.

 

[djplaeskool]

One more time
lol

 

[CrayToes]

Just keep adding laps until Ric passes Lewis please

We could be here until next year.

 

[DBT85]

Wish there was a view of the drivers faces so we could see the anger/smiles when shit goes wrong. Lewis must have been grinning like a Cheshire cat when he saw the crash and vettel spin.

 

[Humidex]

Can't fault that, Hamilton was peerless, even with the good fortune afforded to him at the start.

 

[hamchan]

Sucks that Ricciardo wasn't fast enough to catch up to Hamilton to make it interesting.

Sucks that Bottas wasn't fast enough to catch up to Ricciardo to make it interesting.

 

[dakun]

Considering Riccardos lack of pace, ferrari really threw away a 1-2 finish

 

[tlop53]

get in hamilton

 

[Lach]

Hamilton disqualified for removing the head fixation. /s

 

[Kalor]

That was a good drive from Hamilton. First place basically fell into his lap but he easily kept Ricciardo at bay.

 

[Par Score]

Great race from Hamilton, avoided disaster after a great start, handled the restarts impeccably.

 

[DBT85]

Boom shakalaka!

 

[BigAl1992]

Sainz sounds happy. XD

 

[Zeknurn]

Ha Sainz and his engineer.

 

[nny]

Vamos
Vamos
VAMOS
VAMOS
VAMOOOOOS
VAAAAAAMOS

...lol

 

[Breakage]

Lol @ Torro Rosso's radio.

 

[nekkid]

That was a good drive from Hamilton. First place basically fell into his lap but he easily kept Ricciardo at bay.

He had to take the position from Ricciardo as well, though.

 

[Ruruja]

These fireworks though.

 

[Juicy Bob]

lol at the F1 app showing Palmer as having won

 

[RaySpencer]

Damn! I missed the race!

Without spoilers, is it worth my time to watch it?

 

[Danielsan]

Damn! I missed the race!

Without spoilers, is it worth my time to watch it?

Just watch the first lap.

 

[Lach]

Damn! I missed the race!

Without spoilers, is it worth my time to watch it?

YEES

 

[Humidex]

Damn! I missed the race!

Without spoilers, is it worth my time to watch it?

Yes. Highlights.

 

[Zeknurn]

Damn! I missed the race!

The highlights should be worth watching.
