When they showed Bottas onboard with team Radio, I was waiting for "Did it work ? Toto ? am I a good boy ?"
In all seriousness, what a brain fade! even though Norris cut across him, how did that happen!
You really hold these F1 drivers to a very low standard don't you?
I’m not saying Bottas wasn’t late he was. But he also was also dealing with less front downforce.Cuky wrote: ↑01 Aug 2021, 15:24Watch the onboard replay. He wasn't just suddenly in front of Bottas, he was there for quite some time. All drivers in front of Bottas started braking at around 150m mark, Bottas was way later than that.Restomaniac wrote: ↑01 Aug 2021, 15:17Hows that? Norris is suddenly in front of a Bottas which uploads Bottas’ his front wing.
That’s nothing like Grosjean at Spa.
Exactly, Bottas is still accelerating whilst others are lifting off. Zero to do with Lando and extremely poor from Bottas.Cuky wrote: ↑01 Aug 2021, 15:24Watch the onboard replay.

To be fair to him he is usually decent in the wet, but caught out big time here.astracrazy wrote: ↑01 Aug 2021, 15:24About sums up his level of driving right there.El Scorchio wrote: ↑01 Aug 2021, 15:23To be fair to stroll he did his best to avoid colliding with anyone by trying to take to the grass. But grass = wet….
Everyone would be dealing with that, its a race start.Restomaniac wrote: ↑01 Aug 2021, 15:27I’m not saying Bottas wasn’t late he was.

To compare it to Grosjean though. Nah.
