Another mistake that just proves once again how much Rosberg crumbles under pressure. Honestly, he knew Hamilton was going to squeeze him, and you could see the nerves kicking in from the very start of the lap. Looking at the onboard footage, I’d say it wasn't intentional, but it was still incredibly stupid.
I have to say, I'm loving the rising tension. If they keep this up, I wouldn't be surprised if we end up with a chaotic mess reminiscent of the racing in Turkey or Canada. 😬
At any rate, Hamilton already knows exactly how to handle a teammate war. 😁

I honestly don't get why Lewis Hamilton wasn't allowed to push the pace—I mean, if Nico Rosberg already pulled off into the escape road, what was the issue?
The crew over at Resume Skya—you know, the usual lineup with Martin Brundle, Damon Hill, and Johnny Herbert acting as the analysts—all seem to agree that this wasn't some intentional move.

As for Ferrari, like I said before, we're looking at a 3rd row start, which sucks because instead of watching a masterclass for the win, I’m stuck watching two top-tier drivers scrap over a single measly point.

That's pretty much the ceiling right now.

I mean, sure, I'm glad they hit their limit, but man, it’s depressing that the limit is this pathetic.

Nico Rosberg's whole masterplan 🙏

It’s just like someone said... back in my grandfather's day at school 😁...

Hamilton looked visibly on edge at the press conference. Barely managed to get a single sentence out. 😁
Let the tension simmer.

cosmichawk12 said:man, what kind of "masterplan" was Nico Rosberg even running? 🙏

It’s like that old saying about my grandpa’s way of doing things—totally unpredictable. 😁

If he actually meant to do that, he would've just smashed right through the fence instead of veering off the track onto the shoulder.

I'm just kidding—of course it wasn't intentional...

Lewis Hamilton didn't really say much after the race—just kind of dodged the question about whether he thought it was intentional or not. Honestly? It felt a little uncalled for on his part. Look, I’m a huge fan of his, and in my book, he's definitely the 2014 World Champion, no questions asked—but this move just wasn't cool.

Lujo is going to catch him off guard tomorrow—honestly, if he doesn't, I don't know what will. It’s going to be absolute chaos at the St. Devote corner. ☕

I’m certainly glad we hit our peak, but—if I’m being honest—it’s a bit disheartening that the peak is actually this low.

As far as I can see, we won't see anything significant from Ferrari until 2015—and even then, who knows? Maybe Fernando Alonso won't even be behind the wheel by then, and frankly, I’m having a hard time believing they'll have a competitive car regardless.

Man, this is brutal. Sky is basically dissecting those pit stops right now, and if you listen to the consensus, everyone’s pretty much convinced it was intentional...

And now Alonso is running some kind of Finnish con job🤣

I mean, why would Kimi be a fraud? Who knows what kind of movie he's starring in lately—honestly, maybe he’s just planning to be the first Finn on the Moon...

Why is this suddenly such a disaster to you?! Formula 1 history is littered with this kind of crap—some of it isn't even that long ago.

I don't see why Rosberg couldn't try to make up for a lack of talent or raw pace by playing dirty—not saying he did, just saying it's entirely possible.

I just don't see why someone like Rosberg couldn't try to make up for a perceived lack of raw talent or pure pace by using tactics like that. I’m not saying he actually did, of course—perish the thought!—but it seems entirely plausible from a psychological standpoint.

If legends like Schumacher, Senna, or Prost were capable of pulling all sorts of questionable stunts, then why wouldn't Rosberg be able to do the same?

Honestly, looking at how that GP2 race went down, you're better off starting in the even slots—2, 4, 6, 8, 10—rather than the odd ones. 😁
I swear, every single person on the odd side got swallowed up by the guys in the even positions right at the start.

Well, they wouldn't have been able to pull it off so sneakily if they weren't...

Honestly, it’s not even clear why there was a yellow flag in the first place.🤷
Rosberg was way off the track; realistically, he could've just crashed without anyone waving a flag...🤷
