Good old Charles - trust him to overdrive the car and make a big mistake.

He really needs to calm it down.

Paul DiResta's commentary very sharp today.

The Merceces starts bouncing from a lower speed than the Ferrari. It looks downright scary on the replays

Schermerhorn

If all the races were this long, Red Bull would ace this championship

Looking at the weather forecast for Sunday shows a cloudy afternoon with a 52% chance of rain.

Would love to see a wet weather race and see what Lewis, Max and Vettel can do.

Schermerhorn

The in-season development between Ferrari and RBR will be interesting. I'm still backing RBR to close the performance gap by Spain/Monaco and come out ahead but the reliability issue are a big worry.

Schermerhorn

Hamilton is not prime Hamilton anymore.

Russell is catching Lewis at the right time if be does beat him.

I can see Hamilton winning a rainy race if the stars align in 2022.

Vettel in a back marker car driving like a back marker, how the mighty have fallen. Second race running Hamilton unlucky it looked like he was about to regain position from Perez and also lost position to Russell. I think Vettel has mentally checked out already. The team don't have the resources, d...

Schermerhorn

Wow Charles. That was epic.

Schermerhorn

Haas and Alfa have to make the most of this early-season performance before they get out-developed by their rivals.

I bet Bottas is feeling pretty smug right about now, even though it is only Q1.

Schermerhorn

Wow. Aston Martin.

I wonder if Vettel pulls a sickie again next week......

What about Saudi Arabia and their relentless and merciless campaign of bombing and starvation against the people of Yemen? Are we being selective in our outrage (as usual)? Or maybe people have been calling for Saudi Arabia to be dropped from the calendar and boycotted for years? And yet nothing ha...

Schumacher came back with a crooky neck and 3 years out of the game and tonnes of rust. Alonso has kept himself sharp by competing in different categories. Fernando is where I thought he would be; started off slowly and then built himself up to be very consistent. I think next year he'll be much st...

Well done my man Carlos Sainz.

Leclerc has been super fast but too erratic.

Next year I suspect Carlos to put even more space between him and Charles.

Schermerhorn

Lewis Hamilton to me now is the greatest F1 racer I have ever seen. His attitude and his fightback in the second half of the season shows what a true champion he is. Max may have won this WDC and maybe the quickest right now (compared to Lewis at 36), but he still has miles and miles to go to be on...

Toto is having a melt down tonight. As much as I can sympathise with him on this, he's not conducted himself well at all. The Hamiltons showed how to handle the situation. Argue it behind closed doors by all means but at least show a bit of class for the cameras. This is what I don't fully understa...

What do Mercedes have in terms of options?

Drink their tears.

Joking aside. The result will stand.

Lewis has another shot next year. He's always been in a winning car.

Schermerhorn

48.12 of the sporting regs: Unless the clerk of the course considers the presence of the safety car is still necessary, once the last lapped car has passed the leader the safety car will return to the pits at the end of the following lap. So it should have been a safety car finish. WOW. Now this is...

This could go to the courts.

Mercedes share prices may take a hit if they're surrounded by sour grapes headlines.

Schermerhorn

Toto having a tantrum is just the icing on the cake LOLLLL

Schermerhorn

Well done Max.

The stewarding was consistently inconsistent....as always.

Schermerhorn

Mercedes missed a trick there by not pitting

Schermerhorn

Do Bottas and Lewis have equal machinery?

Bottas really struggling against Leclerc here and 1 minute behind Lewis

Maybe Red Bull could make Perez Verstappen's driving coach over the off season to teach him how to drive properly.

Maybe Verstappen can teach Perez how to drive faster?

Schermerhorn

Why are Aston Martin so slow?

Schermerhorn

Its pathetic from Red Bull.. Too bad Bottas is useless as usual Even if Bottas was in play - I wouldn't want him to intentionally drive through corners slow and block apexs for Lewis. I recall Lewis doing the same against Nico in Abu Dhabi 2016 to deny him a championship. Lewis fans called it "geni...

Max is racing against a faster and more powerful car. You gotta do what you gotta do.

Doubtful.

Older engine and gearbox not as fresh as the Mercedes.

Different rule for Lewis it seems.....

Vestappen. It's been Formula Hamilton since 2014 with way less resistance than there should have been. Hamilton - awesome driver and an ATG but bored of all it all now Verstappen - the next ATG No offence. You can't say you want verstappen to win because your board of hamilton winning the champions...

In short I over estimated Leclerc and under estimated Sainz, if you truly believe Leclerc to be that much better than Sainz then let's see it next year in actual results.

I expect Sainz to do the business and handily beat Leclerc next year.

hamilton just said that bottas is the best team mate this sport has ever had. Interesting

He's had like 30 more mechanical issues than Lewis throughout their time together. He's been the pefect guinea pig.....

.....or a victim of the budget cap/downsizing that Mercedes is going through.

Schermerhorn

I cant trust "bro" Bottas to not mess it up somehow.
