Poll: Turkish Grand Prix 2021, Istanbul - Race 16

[Kenai]

Feels a bit late for that now

 

[booyaka]

I think this is a bad one - stay out

 

[Flibster]

I think that stop was too late for Hamilton.

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

Well, hats off to Hamilton and Leclerc for trying something crazy. In a sea of mundanity, it was good to see a gamble, even if it didn't work.

 

[Stumble Bum]

lol surely they had already committed?

 

[Flibster]

So we have an angry Hamilton now

Verstappen radio - Oh my god, what is this Haas doing mate? Look at that...

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

Lead driver and been in F1 for so long. If he truly didn't believe in stopping, he should have ignored the calls.

 

[booyaka]

Another error from Mercedes for me...

You watched the last race? He’d of lost that if he had trusted himself.

 

[Flibster]

Hamilton radio - What position am I in man?

Pit - Currently P5

Hamilton - We shouldn't have come in man. Got massive graining man. I told you.

Pit - Copy Lewis. We were losing time to Perez, but we'll chat about it later. Gasly the car behind at 1.7

Pit - Gasly at 1 second.

Hamilton - Leave it alone man.

 

[booyaka]

One seriously p****d off driver..... This could be massively costly at the end of the championship.

 

[Mr Jack]

Why on earth did they put Lewis!? Madness.

 

[Flibster]

Bottas takes the fastest lap at 1:31.023

 

[Kenai]

I think JB got it spot on, Lewis didn't know he was going to drop the place, he was too calm coming in

 

[Locky]

Congrats to Max on your first Championship..

This is not the same situation. It's not changing conditions.

 

[Flibster]

Driver of the day time.

Sainz? Leclerc? Perez?

 

[Stumble Bum]

Congrats to Max on your first Championship..

Agreed but its the same people making decisions. You trust your team, they have far more data than the driver.

 

[Flibster]

Bottas does a 1:30.432 on the last lap for the bonus point.

Looked like it had promise but really needed a dry line, then more rain to spice it up.

Some nice battles and overtakes, but overall pretty dull.
