    Oh cmon... Why the fuck was he allowed to go back out?
    This is just ludicrous. I’ve said before that Redbull have had astoundingly good fortune recently, but this takes the cake. There’s no way Verstappen deserves to win this race, but it looks like he will because of the idiocy of other drivers and teams. (I’m giving the benefit of the doubt here - it looks dodgy as fuck, but I’m choosing to believe there’s no snidey shenanigans - just call me naïve!)

    I just hope Mercedes have enough on the mediums to win it, but I really doubt it somehow.

    I’d like to think nothing dodgy’s gone on there but it does seem very suspicious.

    I mean only a week ago AT got both cars to start from the pits, which allowed Verstappen to start two places higher - Think someone said it on here last week too, but have AT ever fought RB over position?

    You'd like to think there's no collusion but that's so obvious that it can't be just 'good fortune' for Red bull.

    Because Mercedes don't have any influence over the teams it supplies engines to.

    Not the same thing... Red Bull / AlphaTauri are the same bloody team

    Christian Horner did a recent SKY interview wearing AT kit.

    This race is utter chaos. Mercedes in the box seats for a 1-2 if they can get the tyre warmup?

    Think this has helped Max again tbh as Lewis was reeling him in…. Only hope is softs degrade fast which is unlikely

    Sorry but Hamilton cant complain

    Russell made the correct call, Leclerc was on softs as well ahead of the restart... If Russell had stayed on the medium then the podium was gone for Mercedes

    Russells too slow. They put the wrong car on softs and handed Max the win

    No... No it isn't

    Red Bull and AlphaTauri are owned by the same person.

    Mercedes are simply an engine provider, if the likes of Mclaren / Aston Martin started getting orders to move out the way, they could go to another provider.

    I think Mercedes fucked up.
    Can't blame Max for that.
