Eish… Charles is not a big picture guy. McLaren really disappointing with the stops.

Understatement of the year, that fckng frog is a shortsighted idiot. He'll never be WDC material.

Pity they let Kimi through, he should have had to fight for that place. Would have been a fair fight, which he eventually would have won. But letting him through wont have any bearing on catching Norris. Too late

And risk both of them crashing out on a tight circuit? Toto isn't that stupid.
 
Few things on race:
- great weekend for Alonso, Lawson and Yuki
- the tyre compound seem to have less of an impact on performance and longevity, for example LEC doing the whole sprint on softs
- was annoyed with the focus on tyre changes (out of sync cause not all drivers changed drivers during red flag) instead of pit stops
 
What a joke. He did not loose time as he was not even within 0.5s of his teammate. But lets say he did loose time. He still would have been 15s + behind Russell without the luck of safety car. And 5s + with the safety car. He could not pass Russell. End of story. Other drivers passed the whole race when they had newer tires. Hamilton could not. Now he want to look for excuses for that. Trying to cover up.

Just want to comment on Norris.

After all the crap he took last year and accusations of McLaren favouring him; he has proven this season that he is the far better driver.

RIP George. After openly gaslighting him for the first part of the season, the hierarchy is now clear at Merc.

The Williams duo crashing into one another sums their season up. What a dumpster fire.

Lap 26 he was over 7s behind and was within a second in about 15 laps, so yes he lost time behind Charles but the differential wasn’t enough to overtake on that circuit. He would likely have been ahead of George if he hadn’t been held up.

So he was catching him by 0.5s a lap and was behind him for 1 and half lap. So that is around 0.75s. Now that fact that he was not even up on Charles back means if he let him through that 0.75 would be nullified.
But just to entertain you. Lets say he lost 2s behind Charles. How would that make him come out ahead of George after the pit?
He still would have had to pass him and we now know he could not pass him.

That's like saying we know Max would not be able to pass Max.
In Max's words "if my mom had balls, she'd be my dad"

I said "If Lewis had another lap, he would have likely passed George". That's not the same thing. Bold bit for your edification.

Everything you say is just vague, no facts.
He could not pass him on plenty laps he had. His old softs were just getting older.
So why would he have likely passed George on another lap?
You are looking for excuses just like Hamilton for why he was unable to pass a slower car.
