Adrian doesn't sound super confident about the gearbox!
He is not a trustable source on gearbox matters. :lol:
I trust him a lot more than I trust Horner!

I am sure. There are people who trust team personnel based on a matter of convenience. :wink:

Karma for Bottas holding Verstappen up.

I knew those mediums wouldn't hold out.

One more race, Pirelli are using their softest compounds, and the track has been made quicker. It's going to be very close, we saw how fast RBR was in sector 1. As long as they don't botch the tire strategy RBR can still win it.

It's not over yet. I still think Verstappen can edge out Hamilton in Abu Dhabi. The hard tire is this round's medium tire, and they're only good for ~100km.

What a thrilling race. Without Max F1 would be boring. I suspect Masi is not from the let them race philosophy. As the stakes are higher emotions are as well. For me it was a mega drive from Max. Making it HAM difficult while the mercs had a few tenths race pace in hand.
I wonder whether Max would have made the pass on HAM and OCO at the second restart if he would be on hards, I guess not. If so one could say it was a strategic error of RB. This time they may be were gambling on another red flag. 35 laps on mediums was a bit too much.

Hamilton is a cunning fellow ; deciding not to overtake max (after multiple seconds, downshifts and all, maybe he's getting old?), running into the back of car in front and then relieved of the opposition with a little FIA assistance. After a terribly advantageous VS ending practically gifting him first place, that started the whole episode. Just depressing. Nevertheless, objectively, not a bad result considering yesterday ; Abu Dhabi will be epic.

Great race by Max. I believe Merc / LH should be penalised for the collision. Probably won't change the result but they did ruin Max's race. It was all about the DRS line. They probably didnt want to give the other drs.

Sorry, man. I mean no harm, but... your predictions were kinda loosely this season...

Look at Abu Dhabi:

No way Ham is not taking the W. Think Brazil 4x.

The VSC came exactly when HAM approached at 0.7s,that smelled a bit fishy indeed. But given the tyre advantage in the end it didn't really matter.
