Poll: Abu Dhabi Grand Prix 2021, Yas Island - Race 22

[Baxter]

Horner is really grating on me now, has he always been like this and we are just more aware of it on the coverage now?

 

[muon]

Bottas as usual, will be out of play in a few laps.

 

[Kenai]

Couple of seconds gap and all Merc have to do is pit when Verstappen does. Job done.

They don't want to do that really, they need to use the extra life in the mediums so they're always on significantly younger hard tyres

 

[utajoker]

The same thing just happened with the Aston's, and the guy on the outside had to break and drop in behind to stay on track.

There was space for both to stay on the track. Max got to the opposite kerb

 

[Psycho Ned]

Ah well, all the hype and it's going to be a borefest.

Max had to stay ahead at the start to have any hope.

Can't see how he can turn this round now in normal circumstances.

 

[Flibster]

So, pit stop loss is 22 seconds here. So getting close with that with Sainz 19s behind in 4th.

 

[Baxter]

Haha how long until Masi just tells Red Bull to shut the **** up and stop whinging.

I really hope so

 

[Steampunk]

I'd be interested in seeing if Max was even ahead at the apex because it sure as heck didn't look like it anyway...

Max was so late, he was basically out of control and only just made the corner, or he deliberately pushed Hamilton off. I've got no sympathy for Max when Hamilton pulls the same trick as Max of cutting across the chicane and rejoining the track in front of Max.

 

[utajoker]

Hamilton needs to get 6 -7 seconds to stop undercut gap then just match red bull stops

 

[RoboCod]

Lewis flying here.

He’s had some Karen onboard, it’s just more obvious now.

 

[el_dazza]

Max's tyres are gone. 4.2s behind now.

 

[ZG002]

He's pulling away at a right rate now.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

What is Hamilton gunning it all of a sudden?

 

[Flibster]

1:28.134 for Hamilton now.

BRAKE!

Break = to break something, or broken!

 

[Freakbro]

For me it was a "wild" lunge down the inside....

I don't agree, he made the corner within track limits

I'm agreeing with Brundle on this one

 

[Kenai]

I can't help but feel Brundles opinion would be different if it was Hamilton not leaving Max space

 

[CaptainRAVE]

1:28.134 for Hamilton now.

Hammering the times in. They’ll match RBs pit stop surely.

 

[Freakbro]

BRAKE!

Break = to break something, or broken!

*Hangs head in shame*

 

[Terminal_Boy]

Hoping Verstappen will burn his softs trying to keep in touch?

 

[the wopster]

You can guarantee an appeal is coming from redbull for that decision
