Maybe that’s where the issue lies—the reason Lewis keeps struggling with those sluggish starts. I guess his car might just be heavier because they've reinforced the chassis to handle impacts like the one we saw today. 😬

fadedpanther51 said:Honestly, Vettel's best bet is praying for a DNF from Hamilton—which is pretty rare. I think he already had one this season back in Austria, but I can't quite recall the one before that.

Right—that one in Austria was actually his first DNF after a streak of about 33 or 34 races.

Roger Wright94 said:Vettel? I'll probably check the replays later—though I suspect Kimi might be the main factor here. He had a rough start. Vettel seemed faster, but he just couldn't make the move in time, I guess. Then Kimi slows him down again, and that leads to the collision. I don't see any glaring driving errors, really.

Oh boy. 😲

🤣

What’s there to wait for? I suppose it’s pretty obvious—this was just Vettel's strategy today, making them look much weaker than they actually are. Then, once we hit Singapore, they'll likely catch everyone off guard by being underestimated, and hopefully, they'll just run away with it for the rest of the season. 🎉

Good grief, this guy from Chaplin is going to lose his hands at this rate 😁

Jeremy Reyes4 said:Unbelievable. This guy seems to have more luck than actual talent—just a lucky amateur, I guess.

It’s always interesting to see these kinds of insults—usually coming from people who probably haven't achieved even 0.1% of what the drivers they're attacking have accomplished in their lives.🕺
And then there's the random splash of racism, just because.🙂

Well, Stoffel Vandoorne didn't finish last after all! 😲

Nearly both Williams Racing cars finished in the points 😲

Romain Grosjean 🙂 I've never really been a fan of his—though, I suppose, it’s nice to see him up there in the points.

Force Stroll pulls off another solid race 👍

Sebastian Vettel just keeps making these silly mistakes—wasting points left and right. It’s almost as if he’s determined to lose the championship at any cost, and today, he probably succeeded.

Mercedes-AMG was predictably brilliant with strategy—while Ferrari remains, as usual, a bit lost when it comes to those decisions.

"I realize I'm trailing behind Vettel—but honestly, I couldn't care less."

Max 😍 😍 😍 It’s going to sting, even if he ends up with a 50-second penalty. 😍

Lol, I guess they don't have anything better to show regarding Vettel—just playing the same clip four times of him getting worked up at Perez 😁

Jerry Moore61 said:Valtteri Bottas isn't the number 2 driver! Hahahaha!

I mean, who's actually saying he isn't? 🤣

I don't know how some people can even look at themselves in the mirror—honestly. I'd much rather be like Fernando Alonso in a crumbling team but still have some dignity left, than let someone turn me into a fool who just blindly follows orders for the sake of a #1 driver. 👎

In either scenario, you aren't getting anywhere near the WDC—so what's the point, other than being a puppet in the case of Robottasov and slowly turning into a mascot? 🤷

Christian Horner is on the radio saying they aren't quite sure what happened to Daniel Ricciardo 🤣 What happened was they basically messed with his head on purpose—all to benefit General Motors, I guess 😬

George White52 said:Just keep Kimi behind you—classic move from the poor guy in the Mercedes-Benz 🤣

I guess we'll just have to wait until the end of the race when Kimi Raikkonen inevitably has to let Sebastian Vettel through 🙂

So, folks—Stoffel (still!) isn't in last place!! 😲 Miracles really do happen, I guess. 😬

darkmarlin16 said:I guess it wasn't even a matter of him missing Bottas—it's pretty obvious he’s just lost it.

If he had turned right—well, I guess he would have gone straight into Bottas. 🤷 And I guess both of them had a lock-up under braking—maybe.

Alexander Jackson37 said:Maybe some people just have that certain something—I guess you could call it an aura—that makes them stand out. It’s hard to put a finger on it, really.

Quite a surprise! Not again— 🤣 Not again—he "accidentally" fails to finish the race, much like how he probably won't see a single one through to the checkered flag for the rest of the season, I guess. 🤣

Vettel failed to get past Perez 🤦 He managed to pull it off on his second attempt, though—I guess.

Gary Palmer8 said:...but how did Leclerc pull that move on Vettel so fast... honestly

Exactly. I suppose he'll just enjoy being rock solid at #2 for half his career—not that I see Vettel leaving Formula 1 anytime soon 🤦

I wonder if Kimi Räikkönen will get some "accidental" directive to dive into Lewis Hamilton if Vettel ends up ahead of Valtteri Bottas 🤔

Jason Campbell70 said:I was being incredibly sarcastic, I suppose. 😁

Not me at all. It sounds great to me—though still not quite reaching the level of the German national anthem (<3).

Anyway, it's Alonso 1 - Magnussen 0 🙂 Magnussen is just messing around against Perez 🤣

This was purely Vettel's mistake—I guess. Hamilton really didn't have any choice but to go off-track.

Magnussen is being such an idiot here 🤣

I wonder what the odds are for Lawrence to pull off a win? Probably triple digits? 😬
