'sake! Great battle. More from of this please but other way around!

 

[Flibster]

Schumacher pit radio - These laps have been quicker than Stroll who is on the same tyre. Very good laps.

Did ham just win in not the fastest car???

 

[Housey]

I think this should make all those who imply Hamilton is not all that think a little bit. One of his best races in a long time. That's a race driver right there, two of them and leaps and bounds above everyone else out there right now in my opinion. Great racing.

 

[Steampunk]

Full marks to Max for doing the right thing.

Better than getting a ten second penalty after the race and dropping lower than second place.

 

[snips86x]

Shame about the position change after the corner, threw it away...such a shame but better than a penalty.

 

[Steedie]

And that’s why he’s the best, so much for he’s only good because he has the fastest car

Absolutely this

 

[Mr Jack]

Love it. What a stunning end.

Lesson learned RB. Track position is everything nowadays. Don't try to be clever and attack from behind on better tyres.

 

[Flibster]

Verstappen - Why didn't you just let me go? I could have easily pulled those 5 seconds.

Horner - We had the instruction from race control unfortunately Max

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Can't they just ditch DRS and make the cars better aerodynamically?

 

[Lmg80]

Brilliant start to the season.

I don't think anyone else would have held off max tho. That was a special stint from hamilton

 

[Merlin5]

Get in Lewis!

 

[Flibster]

And that's 95

Thats going to be a tough one for his critics.

 

[Steampunk]

My predictions of how Hamilton wins. Any of the below:

1. Hamilton wins it though the undercut, going long and generally looking after his car and tyres better.
2. Verstappen's car fails.
3. Verstappen bins it under pressure.

I could be wrong, but I'd love to see Verstappen explode when it doesn't go his way.

So, mostly number 1, with a half portion of number 3.

 

[chrismscotland]

Very impressed with Perez getting 5th; easily better than anything Albon did last year

 

[Psycho Ned]

One of Hamiltons finest wins no question.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Something funny about Hamilton using the track limits, red bull complaining, then actively being caught out on them.

Hamilton’s tyre management is epic too.
