Mercedes should give Bottas some laps

 

[NotTheOne]

Yuki to crash on last lap?

 

[andy_mk3]

Russell needs to slow Albon right down now and prevent the Williams swap.

 

[Journey]

Red flag on last lap and Max win lol

He'd still be 4th.

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

Just voted Gasly the driver of the day. The only guy smart enough to just not bother.

 

[Stu999]

Will Russell be double naughty and not pit a second time?

 

[KiNgPiN83]

I’m glad the FIA/whoever really thought this two pit stop rule through..

 

[Mr Jack]

Not what they just said on commentary - just repeated it now

Commentators getting the rules wrong. Shocked I am.

Section 30.5(m) of the Sporting regs is unambiguous on this: "Unless the race is suspended and cannot be re-started, failure to comply with these requirements will result in the disqualification of the relevant driver from the race results."

 

[andy_mk3]

Voting Russell DOTD for the lolz.

Same

 

[Kenai]

Indeed, game for Max will be pit on the last lap - anything untoward before that and he has chance for a win

 

[booyaka]

They have just changed the chat now saying he's DQ'd if he doesn't stop

 

[.:MBK:.]

just corrected themselves, so guess max will just pit last lap if nothing happens

 

[UTmaniac]

Imagine Max backing up Norris/Leclerc/Piastri enough and the three of them take each other out of the race to gift the win to Max.

 

[t2na]

Yeah I was shouting at my TV listening to Brundle repeat that 30s bs over and over, they even said at the beginning of the race that 2 stops were mandatory and it was a DQ if you didn't do both!

 

[andy_mk3]

I'd love to see Leclerc win this. But I can't see it happening

 

[Journey]

Same

Me 3.

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

So is Antonelli just not going to pit?

 

[andy_mk3]

So is Antonelli just not going to pit?

Nothing to gain by pitting now. Hope for a VSC/SC or red flag. If not then pit last couple of laps.

 

[Johnz0r]

So is Antonelli just not going to pit?

He should park it up like his namesake and jump on to his yacht and down a few cold ones

 

[t2na]

Excited for Hamilton's post-race interview here, his onboard at the moment is hilarious and looks like he genuinely is tuned out and just coasting.
