No wonder why HAM won, even with front puncture car is relatively easy to control.

mate can you share those experts and scientists reviews, i want to listen what they say as well?

and yes Max could go on but its not that easy to guess for the team that if Hamilton d have problems or not.. like Max said it was lucky and unlucky for them..

there is significant amount of vibration mate, and its more like fast tire deflation then tire took off from sidewalls.. means general balance of the tire is not that super disturbed while its spinning.. both Merc's and McLarens lucky that tire could rip off some tread and it could break a lot stuff around the tire then there d be a lot vibration.. next weeks tires will be even more softer.. next week pitlane will be much busy than this week..

im really curious for Kvyat's crash reason if it was tire failure or not..

https://formulaspy.com/f1/suspected-...ts-crash-70283 ..

looks like Pirelli failed this weekend a bit.. none of the drivers used the tires more than Pirelli recommended..

^ If next weeks tyres will be softer then bring it on, must be problems for Merc managing them seing today's last gasp fail and lucky win.

Red Bull confirmed that the tires were damaged and cut up. Which was the reason for the pitstop. Being 20+ seconds behind, might as well go for fastest lap. This is not the first time they've called this strategy.

Could Max have hypothetically won the race? Sure.

Hypothetically, his tyres could've exploded as well on the last lap like the three other cars.

We would never know. He secured 2nd place and brought home the points.

i believe all teams go safer next week by at least 2 pitstops cause at least for now it ll be hotter as well.. even maybe Pirelli can ask FIA to tweaking the pressure also.. this reminded me 2005 US GP in Indianapolis.. Michelin couldnt guarantee tires ll be safe.. was one of the weirdest race ever..

Hulkenberg

Clutch bolt failure was the cause of Hulk 27 not starting,it sheared off and jammed the engine.

LOL, Merc is so far ahead they won with three tires.

Without the self destructing tires, this race was a complete snoozefest.

I figured out it's the Philip Morris Company that's behind it. WTF are they pushing these days: cigs or "EVERYONE CAN BE A WINNOWER. BEING A WINNOWER SIMPLY MEANS THAT, EVERY DAY, YOU ARE TRYING TO IMPROVE AT SOMETHING WHICH IS IMPORTANT TO YOU."

but this weekend after CEO or one of the bigheads in Ferrari said that they dont expect to win a championship at least until 2022 it may gone for good..

It seems that all of the accidents left CF shards all over the track because these failures are not indicative of a de-lamination but rather a catastrophic failure. No warnings, no tell-tale signals and no cord showing. Just catastrophic failure. I believe this is why Kyvat had his failure and wreck.

And btw...it seems that even God is a HAM fan!!
