Re: 2025 Singapore Grand Prix Race Thread

In Azerbaijan I criticised Ferrari for being operationally poor, and the very next race they unfortunately prove me right once more as their cars were setup to fail before the end of the race. Why was Hamilton not told he needed to LICO like Charles was? At least as far as I can find he was never t...

Re: 2025 Singapore Grand Prix Race Thread

I think that they were a bit lenient with Norris. He managed to hit two cars, not just one, and somehow all 3 managed to get away without any serious damage, apart from the flying bodywork. What saved him is probably that it is the first lap, but still, a bit naughty playing bumper cars to gain a p...

Re: 2025 Singapore Grand Prix Race Thread

If he still had some brakes, that would be different. I was replying based on the comment. Well he still had 6 points so obviously he would continue...

Re: 2025 Azerbaijan Grand Prix Race Thread

Hamilton should give the place back because that was the agreement. Yes, Hamilton could have overtaken Leclerc on the track, but it would have cost him and probably decreases his chances of a successful overtake later on. Teamwork makes the dream work, but for Hamilton teamwork is only talk. And qu...

He didn't request, he offered it. Because it meant he would have 1 lap fresher tyres and it also meant that Piastri couldn't stay out, hoping for a SC to jump Norris with.
