From the previous circuits, the MB didnt seem to be as bouncy as the Ferrari here. That head cam footage from Sainz was bouncing so much, surprising he could get the apexes right.
 
Difficult to see Max losing the WDC now. Good result for Lewis, solid for Russell. Alonso furious to lose to Ocon again. Nice to see Stroll gain a Canadian point.

Good damage control for Leclerc. Sainz should have done better but gets a good podium regardless
 
Yeah fair enough I'll give that a 7, decent end to an alright race. Great drive from max, nice try from sainz great pace and great driving but just couldnt hang on through the hairpin. Nice from Merc too, looked so much more competitive in race trim than recent races.

Absolutely scandalous, isn’t it?
Hamilton should be a record 8-time world champion, Merc should’ve had the double, and Max/RB win this year. The world is in balance.

******* disgusting and it still ****** me off today thinking about it :mad:

Everyone knows other than the blinkered Max fans that is a hollow championship and gifted it but its done and to move on.
 
Hamilton pit radio - Great stuff there Lewis. Great stuff. That's P3 mate. A well deserved podium. Really awesome.

Hamilton - Great, great effort guys. Thank you very much. The car was little better today. I think we've got something here, let's keep pushing.

Leclerc seemed to have the same issue pulling out of that corner/some other corners too. His tyres were old as balls at the time though. :D

Well you are assuming LH wouldn't have overtaken him, which seems likely.

He wouldn't. Russell would have easily pitted ahead and then had a tyre advantage.

No way to know that, of course, but given the gap to Ocon not sure why they didn't try it to hold out for a Safety Car for another ten laps or so .
 
Don’t get me wrong, the Merc had decent enough pace today but Hamilton still got dropped at the start and the restart. If Perez and Charles had been up front as one would expect, Merc would still be 5th & 6th.

Yup. Shouldn’t be talking up their performance too much this weekend tbh.
 
Great drive from Max, Sainz and the two Mercedes drivers, good to see them closer this week.

Max on his way to becoming a double world champion, Norris on his way to AutoTrader to pick up a better car :(
 
Ocon radio - YEEEEESSSSS! Haha!

Pit - Scenario 12 please. Well done. Alright, that's P6 and P7. Very good team effort. Nice one.

Ocon - Very good guys. Very well recovered.

Nah, its finished. 6 wins out of 9. Something dramatic will have to happen.

On a separate note, Russell has been brilliant this year. Very consistent. If Mercedes have a decent car next year (or second half of this year), will be interesting to see a shootout between them.
 
Russell pit radio - That's P4. Good recovery.

Russell - Yeah, good recovery. Sorry the pace wasn't as good in the last stint as it was at the start.
