Holy shit! My heart nearly dropped.
That was unreal timing. Like, Nostradamus level shit.

Oh man, that's an epic call. The advantages of being in front.
Williams have zero downforce. Christ.

Damn Kimi had bad luck. Few laps too early.

I thought that call was wrong with Rosberg's pace. That localised rain.
He should never have been able to do another lap and stay 2nd. Williams are an embarrassment to F1.

Gambled too early.
Some of you people, fucking hell. :lol
Let's not get too caught up in the moment, these kind of races are few and far between lately.
Minus Williams' poor performance in the wet, this has been a brilliant race.

incredible race and tactics from hamilton again, other than that start.

They have two drivers out there and they pit them both on the same lap

Yeah. Well knowing Kimi he doesn't care if he is fifth or ninth.
It's a good job the rain came when it did, because Hamilton was getting destroyed by Rosberg then.

They couldn't have let one drive another lap in the rain lol

They could have pit one a lap earlier. They saw Hamilton come in.
That was actually the smarter choice.
And they didn't have to stack either. I'm not seeing an issue...
But so could everybody else. Hamilton made that call all by himself and nobody seemed to be sure that's the right call

They have two cars out there
Either it works or it doesn't. Either way one car benefits from the call. Instead both lost out.
They didn't even have to stack and Hamilton was pretty much the only one who made that call.
But sure, theyre embarassing the entire sport.
It's not like this is a recent problem at Williams. I still remember the days of complete dominance where Villeneuve and Frentzen were 1-2 at Monaco and started with slicks while the rest of the grid was on wets. End result: dropped to 16th in less than 1 lap even on the fucking Monaco.

Yes because they didn't react to what another car was doing. If the race leader pits for inters you should take notice.
Didn't Vettel pit the same lap as well?
Yeah but they are in no position to risk anything against ferrari.
If it didn't rain and massa or bottas ended up in the same position as raikkonen did the first time around people would be calling them out too
This is just the perfect example of an armchair expert.
Hamilton timed it perfectly yes but if the rain had come down just one lap later he'd have lost out.
I can judge them by their inability to avoid the undercut from Mercedes during the 1st pit stop when they had 2 cars ahead. They could have done the undercut themselves with one of the car but now as usual they wait to see what everyone else does to then start to think what to do.
