Formula 1 Gran Premio Heineken D’Italia 2020Formula 1

Why isn't Bottas making any progress?

They're all terrified of ruining their tyres if they try and pass. Always happens in the opening stint.

I think F1 is too much for Albon. It's one thing to get a handle on the car, it's another to then drive it fast, and then ANOTHER to do so in close proximity to others. It's just too much

RB made a huge mistake not managing the Riccardo Max relationship better, they're still feeling the burn of that one...

 

[Jimlaad43]

Almost everyone in DRS range and no action.

DRS never works at Monza because of the tiny rear wings.

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

I think Bottas is stuck. They all have DRS and there's not enough speed to pass. Our podium could be set.

edit: Maybe not all with DRS but they get a draft. DRS doesn't do much.

Their first mistake was ****ing Sainz over

And Ricciardo's mistake for letting psychology get the better of him. Shoulda stuck around and proven it on track instead of the equivalent of taking his toys and leaving.

Renault was a bad choice, but McLaren next year might be a good step

 

[Dennisch]

Bottas mentally crumbling under the pressure.

 

[AshenGraey]

I hope Sainz and Norris finish in their current positions! That would bode really well for McLaren.

 

[SlowGrayAudi]

MB engine is melting in traffic.

If bottas didnt suck at the start maybe they're aggressive mapping wouldn't be such an issue

 

[PaMu1337]

Magnussen sounded like he just didn't want to continue anymore

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

Magnussen sounded like he just didn't want to continue anymore

That was the most casual message "oh something broke"

 

[PaMu1337]

Did they forget that VSC exists?

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

They seem to be using the safety car more this year over the VSC.

 

[Jimlaad43]

That should have taken 5 seconds to push back but no the FIA are too scared to let the marshals just clear it with their own initiative. So we get a Safety Car out of nothing...

 

[PeterJB]

Of course just Hamilton gets to pit before the pit lane closes.

 

[SlowGrayAudi]

Lewis might have pitted while the lane was closed.

 

[DesertPenguin]

That's not bull**** at all with the pit lane closing JUST after Hamilton....

 

[PaMu1337]

Vettel just said in Dutch interview:
We are in this position because we deserve to be

Well the car sucks balls so yeah

 

[SlowGrayAudi]

Hamilton and gio under investigation

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

Ferrari booting Vettel seems like a blessing at this point.

 

[Roo]

Lots of cooling tyres on the pitlane.

 

[ShiftingGears]

Has to be a drive through or a stop go.

If the pit lane is closed its a safety issue and has to be severe

 

[numbnuts70]

Did LH pit illegally? I bloody hope so.

 

[Jimlaad43]

It closed with the Safety Car coming out, it just took the comms team time to work it out.

 

[PeterJB]

If it's a time penalty I'm gonna scream.

 

[DesertPenguin]

So hopefully Hamilton gets a penalty for that that costs him the win

 

[PaMu1337]

Latifi casually P7 with two potential penalties ahead of him
