BOTTAS BOTTAS BOTTAS

Race was heavily decided yesterday and sealed this morning with the penalties.

I've seen so many crazy things happen in F1 that I won't be celebrating until I see the checkered flag. Maybe a tyre will explode on the last lap or there will be a botched pitstop.

I forgot to post reply this... And now Bottas lol

 

[Sum1s2pid]

Whoa... what? Stepped away for a second and Bottas is off. Borked wing. 😮

 

[Blitz24]

Did Mercedes just forget Bottas had to pit?!

Also Mazepin has still not pitted once, but he's so laughably off pace it's irrelevant.

 

[Jimlaad43]

That will scare everyone who's planning to 1 stop

 

[phillgt2002]

Not a bad fix for how ****ed that car was. Still, he may have a lot of floor damage

I'm tired of Bottas being a martyr... They had a clear window to pit him.

 

[BrainsBush]

I guess we all agree this was also pretty dangerous what Bottas did?

Don't think too much. They stretched the mediums for 34 laps, way longer than anyone else

 

[McLaren]

Perez super lucky there getting by in time and the display going green/yellow/green/yellow/green.

 

[Sum1s2pid]

Ah, OK. Bottas had a puncture. Huge sparks. Huge. 😮

 

[andrea]

Merc be like: Oh ****, nobody told us we had a second car.

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

Puncture or tire failure?

 

[Jubby]

Merc royally messed that up not pitting Bottas. I know hindsight (yadda yadda)... but seriously, the WCC was much more in hand, they could handle a 3 point loss to Perez, considering Hamilton is adding more than that deficit.

"Can you one-stop around Losail?" You can... as long as the tyres last.

More asinine, banal interjections.

 

[Blitz24]

Valtteri: Toto, my tires are gone.
Toto: Sorry, who is this?

 

[Fat Tyre]

More asinine, banal interjections.

I hate Ted and Crofty.

 

[Milouse]

The tyres age on main feed is showing wrong values for at least 3 drivers (all on medium)...

 

[Fat Tyre]

Max pits.

 

[BrainsBush]

Will Lewis also take the risk of a pit stop for the fastest lap?

Edit: Ninj'd by Lewis himself

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

Let's see if Alonso can hang on.

 

[phillgt2002]

Gotta love Alonso..

 

[Sum1s2pid]

Nice. Team game for Ocon. Go Alonsoooooooooo!

 

[PaMu1337]

At least the battle for fastest lap is fierce

 

[BrainsBush]

When battling for the fastest lap is the most exciting thing to watch...

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

They should've told Ocon to defend like Verstappen.

 

[McLaren]

Norris, please fight like 2nd lion.

 

[PeterJB]

AlphaTauri have just vanished.

 

[PaMu1337]

Norris, please fight like 2nd lion.

Liondo Norris

 

[Veinz]

Come on fred!

 

[Blitz24]

Bottas to retire.
Russell with a puncture.
