"Made by Pirelli for Mercedes"
They might as well just paint ''merc'' on the side of the tyres my friend.

Clearly not applicable otherwise we would be hearing complaints from RB especially if they thought VER had any real chance of making up the 0.5 second on HAM which he even said in the post-qualifying presser was doubtful.

Never mind the fact that his outlap was faster than previous outlaps.

HAM knew the clock was ticking for the Red Bulls and even more for Checo ! HAM had in Q3 his P1 anyway..

Mercedes has all the luck on their side , as usal . Even while they play their dirty tricks in the pitlane in turtle pace !
The FIA ? Is Mercedes !

HAM said : I had the whole session the "YMCA" song in my mind ...

Man .Give me a F@cking break ...

Norris went into Max and now Red Flag so can Max have his barge board replaced according to the rules.

Typical MAX fan….now it’s “within the rules” for a MAX to get his car fixed under red flag, but when HAM had the same in the past he’s lucky and/or cheating.

You guys are hilarious.

BOT was way too close on NOR.
No downforce ->front wheels blocking on brake->crash.
What a drivers error!
