Looks like Ferrari are ensuring Bottas gets the win, Hamilton gets the title on the podium. Nice PR stuff. Everyone happy-ish.
Let me fix that for you
Yeah, they didn't really turn up did they? :shock:

I don't see Hamilton making a one stop work. Even if he can get to the end on the hard tyre, he'll have nothing left against cars with fresher rubber.

No chance, he's over 15 seconds behind Bottas. If Bottas pits soon he doesn't have to make that much ground up.

He would have been better off pushing flat out and going for an undercut on Verstappen.

Riccardo and Norris seem very closely matched at this stage.

I just knew Sainz would interfere with Red Bull again. He screwed over Albon and crippled him only to be passed from being fking last. Sainz got away with no penalty.

Finishing races is important, but racing is more important.

Bottas flying again, he will be on Hamilton's gearbox within 5 laps.

Nah 2 stop is the better strategy today, Mercedes were just caught napping again and Red Bull took away the undercut.

Mercedes had the luxury of splitting the strategy so they did. One of their cars was going to be at the front, either way.

Pit now for mediums and take the fight to Max. This poor strategy was never going to work

He needs to be more assertive, Hamilton should have pushed for the undercut at the first stops.
