That Stroll replay thing has given me PTSD now. I was totally expecting to see him at Monaco

 

[PaMu1337]

Engineer bashing Bottas quite hard, and fully deservedly so

 

[evldave333]

wish I was watching a replay so I could fast forward this phase yawn...

 

[PaMu1337]

Loving the wind graphic on the halo

 

[Fat Tyre]

Monaco was more exciting than this crap.

 

[PaMu1337]

Monaco was more exciting than this crap.

This isn't great, but you've must have forgotten how bad Monaco was

And Stroll in the wall!

 

[Sum1s2pid]

Whoa, nasty crash. Shame, Stroll was doing so well.

 

[Demon Drone]

Well that just shook up some things.

 

[Touring Mars]

Ooft, heavy crash for Stroll and he's blocked the pit lane as well!

Good to see that Stroll is OK, looks like a left rear tyre failure at full tilt

 

[Skygrasper550]

that was a big crash from Stroll safety car is out, but the pit entry is closed.

 

[PaMu1337]

Rear left just exploded

 

[Jimlaad43]

well, everyone who was planning to go to the the end on their hard tyres is now thinking twice about that plan.

 

[Skygrasper550]

Quite amazing how someone can walk out of that high-speed crash without a scratch, then proceed to have a normal conversation with another person. A bit shaken, yeah, but still.

 

[PaMu1337]

well, everyone who was planning to go to the the end on their hard tyres is now thinking twice about that plan.

Might be a hard choice for Red Bull, Hamilton can do opposite to Verstappen

 

[evldave333]

Wish they would always close the pit lane under safety car...

 

[Fat Tyre]

This isn't great, but you've must have forgotten how bad Monaco was

And Stroll in the wall!

I might have to rewatch Monaco's highlights or lack of.

Yeah it was just seconds after I posted it.

 

[PaMu1337]

Hamilton playing mind games to force Verstappen to pit?

 

[Samus]

Nasty crash but I do always enjoy a nice coincidence. The primary person to benefit from a SC pit stop causes the SC and also closes the pit lane so nobody else can stop.

 

[Jimlaad43]

Monaco was more exciting than this crap.

Did you miss the first 15 laps of this race or something? They were epic.

 

[Touring Mars]

Might be a hard choice for Red Bull, Hamilton can do opposite to Verstappen

Makes sense for Red Bull to do nothing then... because if they don't pit, Hamilton can't pit.

And now with a bunch of back markers having pitted and the safety car coming in next lap, Hamilton has missed his opportunity to stop and not lose a huge number of places.

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

Some stops for tires. That could mix up the restart a bit.

edit: Oh boy, it did. Bottas is dropping.

 

[Touring Mars]

Vettel in 5th now And Leclerc so close to taking him out.... how close was that!?

edit: 4th now...

 

[PaMu1337]

Flying restart for Vettel, Bottas drops back further

 

[evldave333]

go seb!

 

[Skygrasper550]

that alternate weaving from the 2 Red Bull cars looks amazing. They're not about to give Hamilton behind any room to surge through.

 

[Demon Drone]

And Bottas' seat starts to get a bit hotter now. Completely out to lunch this weekend.

 

[Touring Mars]

Vettel chasing down Hamilton for a podium now

 

[BrainsBush]

Bottas from 10th to 9 (because Stroll disappeared in the top 10) and then after the restart P13. He already 'knows' something probably

 

[NotThePrez]

Vettel is on a mission! Let's see if he can catch Lewis.

Edit: Gasly is pissed at that pass.

 

[Sum1s2pid]

Chuffed for Vettel.
