I think it's the right call... covers a potential safety car and gives them more chances to remove the deficit to Bottas. They're not struggling with tyres/brakes/heat like Mercedes.

Let me go eat my hat.

 

[Demon Drone]

Vettel really catching up.

 

[Dennisch]

COME ON SEB! Give us something interesting!

 

[Jimlaad43]

Massa pits after a slow puncture

 

[GTFan24]

**** YOU NBC!!

 

[Peter.]

While you guys enjoy this amazing race, I thought you guys might enjoy this really great video.

 

[Dennisch]

Max having an absolute non race today. No one in front. No one behind.

While you guys enjoy this amazing race, I thought you guys might enjoy this really great video.

The highlight is at 5:48:31

"I want less talking," says Bottas, doing a Kimi impression, yesterday.

 

[Dennisch]

Well. That was Sebs race to the front.

Where's the "quote of the year" thread?

Where's the "quote of the year" thread?

I was wondering why I didn't get it. My ninja edit skills were fast.

Also.

GO VETTEL GO.

 

[NW48]

Putin seems pretty happy.

 

[Dennisch]

Vettel within DRS!

 

[Demon Drone]

Don't think there's enough laps left for Vettel to overtake him though. Not counting the start has there even been a on track pass today?

 

[Jimlaad43]

Ocon vs Hulkenberg vs Massa might be close on the last lap

 

[Demon Drone]

Yeah not enough for Vettel.

 

[Jimlaad43]

Bottas timed the pass on Massa perfectly

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Congrats Bottas, we all should have cheered this man on

 

[NW48]

Oh for 🤬 sake Massa.

Well, at least it's a 3rd winner in 4 races. Shame it's a Mercedes win again though. And at least Hamilton isn't on the podium.

 

[Vinylshark]

Congratulations to Bottas for his first victory 👍


I wonder if Rosberg regrets his decision to retire.

 

[Demon Drone]

Beautifully done by Bottas on dealing with Massa.

 

[niky]

Vettel pissed at Massa, but really, there isn't enough space to overtake there.

Oh, and BOTTAS!

 

[sems4arsenal]

That was a decent finish to a terrible race. So happy for Bottas, well deserved. Doubt Seb would be too dissatisfied.

 

[Tired Tyres]

Ha Massa! Well done! Winger boy deserved that.

 

[Demon Drone]

Vettel increases his points lead though.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

I should have bet money on this race.

This will be an interesting one, because if there was a track that Bottas has been consistent at since it has been on the F1 calander it's this one. And that was with a Williams, now the more superior Mercedes is in his hands. If anything I feel this is the track in the nearest future that he can get a win at.

 

[Silent Drifter]

Vettel just caught traffic in the wrong spots on those last few laps. Happy for Bottas' first win.

 

[[Nor]MclarenF1]

Congrats to Bottas on his maiden F1 victory! And a Ferrari 2-3. Excellent finish to an otherwise bland race.

 

[sems4arsenal]

Bottas dominating Lewis this weekend.
