There were defiantly some tactics at play in free practice and quali. Verstappen pulling out in from of Lewis in FP3 I think it was and then Lewis’ slow pace in Q3. I didn’t watch all of it but seems the games are in fell effect for the two teams.
Both drivers seem equally frustrated which is interesting. Verstappen is know to be a hot head sometimes but Lewis very rarely gets upset or shaken in interviews. Historically he’s been really good at getting in the heads of competitors.
Verstappen took his third motor after Q3 which means he’s got to go the balance of the season on this one.

Bottas takes 5 place grid penalty for the lap 1 wreck.
Huge win for Alpine! Great to see the two drivers celebrating. Williams takes their first points and Red Bull has to be so completely frustrated. My boy Gasley did well and grabbed the fastest lap so good on him, Tsunoda also had a very solid race.

Hell of a race today. As one who cheers for Ferrari, it was a bad go for Leclerc to start the race. Lance Stroll caused that portion of the crash acting like he was driving a monster truck.
Bottas with a mistake that will cost him and shouldn’t have happened.
All in all, awesome race with action all the way through. When Hamilton had the mess up starting on wet tires while the rest of the grid pitted, I thought he was done for but there’s a reason he’s the best. Still came back and took podium. Unreal.

No doubt he covered for a very stupid team mistake. I laughed out loud when he was on the radio bitching about Alonso on lap 63-65 when they were in the thick of it. I mean it’s pretty rich him saying Alonso driving defensively on a straight was overly dangerous. Even Niko had to chuckle about it. He’s dang fast though, best for a reason.

Hamilton was in beast mode to even sniff a podium after that bad decision to stay on wets. My wife just read he is being treated for dizziness and exhaustion.......ot was obvious on the podium that he was not really himself. I was waiting for him to hurl on someone. G forces ain't no joke!!![emoji33]

Scarlett horse gets the podium. Sainz was on Instagram popping a bottle of champagne at dinner (unless it was an old picture for effect). Either way, P3 goes to him unless Vettel and Aston Martin’s appeal goes through. Read that the technical guru for AM said there was 1.4L left, F1 requires a 1 liter sample, and they were only able to pull .3L upon the finish. I guess that’s why he killed the car in the track.Last edited by Wall_Hanger; 08-01-2021, 07:44 PM.
