[Aegus]

That rain cloud looked like it was arriving after the race - classic

Forecast is 5pm rain. Temp has definitely dropped from earlier inthe day.

My report from next to the paddock.

Going to try and get pics of the drivers as they go to the media centre after the race.

 

[Qronicle]

I feel like Verstappen will win this, if he doesnt crash into Hamilton

 

[Rubmifer]

Whine whine whine

 

[Chris McQueen]

Concentrate Lewis.

 

[BAW]

I don't think Lewis is bullshiting here. Sooner or later he will hit a barrier.

 

[Hana-Bi]

Man, whining Ham is back... I really hate that. And then he'll drive to the end and everything is fine...

 

[Deadman]

I'd love Mercedes to say "Lewis, no more radio for the rest of the race" like alonso used to do to his team

 

[Kiraly]

Classic fake Mercedes drama.

 

[Psychotext]

Go on Verstappen, give him a little nudge to remind him you're there.

 

[Bungie]

These pit if you want but you won't win comments from Sky are stupid

He could end up in the barrier with 0 points. It's not as simple as they're making out

 

[The_hypocrite]

Who's eating the barrier?

My guess? Vettel.

It's clearly not fake, his tyres are gone and he could go into the barrier easily

Then pit him if it's a safety issue, can't have it both ways

 

[Randdalf]

This is so tense

 

[aspiegamer]

I have zero confidence in Max not doing something stupid.

 

[Wunder]

who's watching indy after this

 

[Maximus Odinson]

Even JAMES is tired of Lewis' bitching.

 

[Mario Bilo]

I don't think they'll pit him with just 15 laps to go. It's all or nothing right now

Danny won at Monaco with a damaged engine, Lewis is fine. The crying about the tires is just going to make it worse

Loss of power is a bit different to lack of grip

 

[RaySpencer]

You can tell Lewis just fucking hates driving slow like this, he always has, he always just wants new tires and to drive as fast as possible...but I sure am tired of hearing these radio messages. Haha.

 

[Qronicle]

The mercedes is just too fast on acceleration for verstappen to try anything

 

[Randdalf]

Just looked up those dodgy looking "Tesla HyperLight" glasses being advertised on the track. Surprise surprise looks like pseudoscience nonsense. Where do they find these sponsors?

 

[Krypta]

How is Leclerc 3rd in the driver of the day vote?

 

[Hana-Bi]

Mercs are just to quick to overtake. Ham really needs to make a mistake to loose hear...

 

[softtack]

Verstappen would've overtaken five times if this was a proper track.

 

[rckvla]

I hope we get a treat before the race ends.

 

[Danielsan]

So yeah. Lewis has this in the bag. There is just no way to overtake when you don't have a crazy advantage. Vettel with the gifted podium because of the shitty pit release.

 

[Maximus Odinson]

How is Leclerc 3rd in the driver of the day vote?

Click to shrink...

Just being Monegasque I guess

He made this race mildly exciting.

 

[TheRulingRing]

Where's that camera angle been all race for real

 

[nature boy]

Wonderboy better pull a move otherwise he finishes 4th

 

[Spades]

At this point I don't understand why Max doesn't just put his car alongside Lewis going into the hairpin and just force the issue.

 

[Kiraly]

Why doesn't Vettel hold up Bottas so he doesn't make podium?

 

[Rubmifer]

Here we go

 

[Wunder]

I should've Turbo'd Sainz

 

[Qronicle]

He'll have to do it at the hairpin

 

[Chris McQueen]

Click to shrink...

Ha! I just googled the same thing.

 

[softtack]

This reminds me of Senna & Mansell.

 

[Daverytimes]

Just noticed because they said it but Honda has been brilliant.

Tbh it's hardly proof of anything when at a track that is more reliant on chassis than power Honda is doing well.

 

[RaySpencer]

Why doesn't Vettel hold up Bottas so he doesn't make podium?

Click to shrink...

That would be so mean. Haha. Could cost Seb 2nd too, so not worth it.

 

[Pagano]

Can we please remove this garbage "race" from the calendar next year?

 

[Randdalf]

Norris was 0.5s behind Ricciardo after he pitted, don't know why they're going on about it now

 

[softtack]

Bloody hell this is getting close.

 

[Bungie]

Going to be almost impossible to overtake at the hairpin in that position

Max is having to slow down at full lock in the middle of the corner

 

[nature boy]

Gasly might finish ahead of Max at this rate

 

[Daverytimes]

Gasly might finish ahead of Max at this rate

Click to shrink...

Gasly is flying.

 

[aspiegamer]

Yeah, zero faith that Max won't do something stupid.

 

[Rabalder.]

Max is a fucking clown.

Fucking Forza move.
