Just brutal. They'd be doing valtteri a favor. RUS is hungry. Give him a shot.
I don't think Russell would get in while HAM is there, they are happy with BOT big time.

Even better ..Give MAX that shot . But that would be HAM's nightmare ..

AALLLBBBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNN!!!!
he took the car to its max.. always believed in Albon and he made superb move overtaking Ricciardo from outside.. well done to Albon i hope from now on things ll get easier since this weekend took a lot of pressure off from his shoulders!!!

and guys..
we ve seen again why Lewis is one of the best in the entire history of F1.. without a slip he was on the race 100%.. i was listening his team radio like always and he was asking where he can save more tire, where he loses time to Bottas, what others doing etc constantly.. while Bottas doesnt even ask anything at least for 2-3 laps at all on avg.. well Lewis just make things look easy.. but actually its not easy.. great 90th win.. 2 more to go break Michael's record.. fantastic!!!
Bottas.. he is a fast driver but i guess it started to be clear that he is not WDC type driver.. he is doing his best but just like almost all the drivers clashing with Lewis he is making mistakes at the times he really must not..

poor Ferraris really.. exit of corners Leclerc was falling behind at each corner.. losing time on corners a bit as well.. it should be so demoralizing for him and the team but Leclerc hanging on quite great.. and seeing Vettel fighting with Russel.. ouch!!

such a crazy race really.. Sainz was in the wrong place again.. Renaults and McLarens shine wasnt around this weekend.. but its great for Ricciardo for taking some decent points.. and Stroll.. that was a big crash and he is lucky that he was unhurt really..

Guys, what's up with all the Bottas hate? This is getting ridiculous.

I think he's the perfect number 2 for Lewis. Just like Barrichello before for Schumacher.
And Coulthard for Mika. Bottas is genuinely quick in qualifying and can win a GP if the leader runs in to trouble. He also collects enough points for the team to win the Manufacturers WC.

Remember, two champs in one team is a recipe for disaster, just think of Piquet/Mansell or Prost/Senna. Lewis/Max will therefore never gonna happen.

Max spinning in the gravel . What was left is a landscape filled with dust !

Later he said : No bad feelings towards Kimi . My PU lost in one second all the power anyway..By this my race was over in seconds !
Now you can better leave me alone . I got enough ... Said MAX .

Stewards warn 12 drivers. Find that Bottas was following rolling restart procedure..."It was further noted that the driver of car 77 (Bottas) and the other drivers involved in the restart not mentioned above, complied with the regulations. Car 77 had the right under the regulations to dictate the pace. " Commenting for SkyTv, Paul di Resta said pretty much the same about Bottas on the restart.

Start right at 44s into the video. It looks like a good old fashioned AlphaTauri initiated F1 sandwich to me. Max was nowhere near HAM and BOT, and took a few other cars in the rear.

I know the Vid doesn't play in the player. Have to click on Watch in YouTube link in the video.

Giovinanaccidenti should be sectioned for that hit on Latifi,a shot in the dark that was suicide.

From WDC and WCC perspectives, the approach is inarguable.

From entertainment, viewership, spectacle standpoints, the approach sucks.

Need Alonso, Max, someone alongside Lewis who can give him a race. BOT cannot. It's clear at this point. Why would anyone not prefer to see Lewis in wheel to wheel racing with a team rival? Really battling for his WDC?

If he beat Max, how much more meaningful would that be to his legacy?

So they'd clash every once in a while... The two Merc drivers could have taken each other out TWICE this year and provided RBR didn't pick up every one of those points, Merc would probably still be in the WCC lead. And we're about halfway through the season. That's how bad it's gotten. Credit to Merc, but I'm not the only one who sees a problem. '22 regs indicate how F1 ownership feels about the current state of things.

I'm not suggesting F1 become IndyCar, but a bit of that cutthroat team mgt mentality would make F1 so much better.

Look at Penske. Stocks the team with the best talent available, may the best man win, AND he expects them to not take each other out. Too many errors, possibly off the pace, you're in an IMSA prototype trying to earn your way back (Castroneves).

Nice kid, but... I hope not. RBR could benefit from another regular podium finisher. And I'm a broken record, but some teammate vs teammate racing would be awesome. Hulkenberg, Perez?

What ???
MAX was hit from the rear first by Gasly , then by Kimi !
Gasly's car is been catapulted in the air by the smash on MAX's car ! ( Gasly's left front was in the air )

MAX pushed it full trottle , but the car didn't moved anymore by the power loss !
That's why he was "hit twice" from behind mate !
I really wonder which race you actually watched mate ?

From what BOT shows , he wouldn't find another F1 seat ..Honestly .
BOT is actually over-payed by Merc ..He can consider himself as a very lucky man.
