Re: 2017 Belgian Grand Prix Race Thread

So basically we just won't get actual overtaking at the front. There's a point where fans have had enough. Always thinking tyres MIGHT fall. An overtake MIGHT happen. Nope, Vettel will just stay around 2 seconds behind, no overtaking, and everyone will pretend at the end how close and exciting it w...

He struggles with safety cars though :-P

I'm not convinced, that it was a poor performance. I'm sure - since Mercedes knew that Lewis has to go back five places - they opted to set the car up for better overtaking abilities than one lap pace.
