That's true enough... But hey, this is racing. It’s just a standard incident.

My point was just that I'm holding out to see how things play out in Canada—if nothing significant happens during that race, then I guess we have our answer.

I'm just kidding, honestly. 😁

Ronald Campbell44 said:What kind of logic is that? I just want to know how people would react if Nico was actually bullying the rest of the grid the way Lewis did during qualifying and the race before the SC hit. Then they’d be complaining about him getting screwed over. Pure hypocrisy...

From what I remember, last year the team—basically SC—screwed Rosberg way harder than Hamilton. Heck, even Ricci jumped six spots in the pits and still finished ahead of Rosberg.😁
And I don't recall anyone crying about how hard Rosberg had it. If anything, everyone was just busy rooting against Ricci, even though he basically got handed the win without doing a damn thing in that race...

As far as I can remember, nobody was actually crying foul over how much Rosberg got shafted; if anything, everyone was just collectively annoyed at Ricci—and that’s despite him basically being handed a win without doing an ounce of actual work during the race...

That’s just the local hypocrites for you—let's not lose any sleep over it.

🤣

Just wanted to say that Max Verstappen won me over completely today. Kid's got talent. 🙏 🙏🙏 🤣

🤣🤣🤣🤣

And what exactly am I looking at in this picture (attached here)...?

I have been waiting years for this moment, just to finally get one over on him 🙂

Max was the hero of the race👍 Man, being that crafty at just 17 years old—and then having that terrible brake test from Grozan... what a jerk...

Anyone got a clip of Sebastian Vettel flying into Martin Brundle in the commentary booth? You know, that moment where absolutely nobody is having a good time after the race and he just shouts "I'm happy"? 🤣🤣🤣

stormybadger8 said:Does anyone have a clip of Sebastian Vettel flying into Martin Brundle in the pit lane? It's hilarious—nobody is actually happy after this race, yet he's just there yelling "I'm happy!" 🤣🤣🤣

A contradiction...?

I don't recall anyone actually crying over how hard things were for Rosberg, honestly; if anything, it felt like everyone was just collectively mourning Ricciardo, even though he basically got handed that win on a silver platter without having to lift a finger during the race.

It was all just a bunch of conspiracy theories, talking about Niki Lauda, Toto Wolff, the Masons, Jews, and even Bin Laden...

Good grief, man!🤣

So what? Who cares?
I honestly think Hamilton just screwed himself up because of Rosberg. I don't give a damn about those guys in Russia whining about how they covered for Ferrari...
I have a gut feeling Rosberg was actually the one calling for the pit stop, and then they pulled Hamilton in just because he had the advantage. 😁

Knowing how much Rosberg smiles, it wouldn't even surprise me if he was the one who actually sabotaged the whole thing...

It’s kind of wild how nobody’s even bringing up the possibility that they totally screwed over Louie on purpose. If things had gone the other way, nobody would be questioning if it was just a mistake; people would be shouting from the rooftops that they intentionally sabotaged Nico. At this rate, we'll probably end up hearing that Louie just decided to pit himself for no reason.

If Louie had actually suggested a pit stop, I can only imagine they would have lectured him on how his rivals wouldn't bother pitting, leaving him to lose track positions he’d never recover—much like that time in Barcelona when they told him not to push because catching Rosberg was a mathematical impossibility. And honestly, let's not even get started on the tires; regardless of how much rubber he had left, there wasn't a prayer in the world that anyone could have overtaken him anyway.

Here’s that message from Laudun to Hamilton regarding all the contract drama.🐔

If the roles were reversed, nobody would be questioning if it was a mistake; everyone would be shouting about how they intentionally sabotaged Nice by putting those guys ahead of him... At this rate, they'll probably claim Louie just decided to pit himself.

It’s very likely they did... and it's hard to argue it wasn't a collective decision when it clearly was...
And it's not like nobody headed for the pits. 😉
Actually, Ricci and the guys behind him basically dove into the pits because they clearly didn't expect Vettel to be right there (and not heading in),
whereas if Hamilton had pulled out in front of Vettel and only Rosberg was ahead of him, you can bet your life they would've ordered Rosberg to give the spot back to Hamilton.
Just like how they told Ricci to hand the position back to Kvyat at the end of the race. 😉

So they didn't miss the mark by nearly as much as it looks; they missed it by maybe a fraction of a second.
