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

They have to leave bottas there as long as he’s in that window.

That’s going to drop him out of the points…

 

[.Lethal]

Not sure what the complaints are. He wasn't moving about in the corner itself, stayed on the circuit at all times. Hard racing is hard racing...

Die hard Lewis fans think it's dangerous

 

[Psycho Ned]

Shocking how poor Bottas is doing, he's 2 seconds ahead of Perez and hasn't stopped!

Gonna come out like 8th/9th.

 

[ChrisD.]

I think Mercedes have better race pace.

Nah I don't think they do..

 

[mk17]

Would be nice to see Bottas do a Perez for Hammy

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Bottas stops. Domino time.

lewis wearing everything out of his tyres before another pit

 

[MagicBoy]

Merc should have not pitted when Max did..

They were covering off the chance of a safety car.

 

[Kenai]

It's not what the FIA want to encourage. It's dangerous. It's why cars that are too slow are not allowed to race.

It's not dangerous, there's only so much slower you can go and stay in front.

 

[Jono8]

Merc are going to lose this with strategy aren't they

 

[Flibster]

Brundle is right. Live timing says that Hamilton had a used set of hard tyres fitted.

 

[MooMoo444]

If Merc don't have another set of new tyres then this is looking a bit dicey

I can see it coming, Max pits for softs, Lewis tries to stay out, tyres die and Max passes lap 56...

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Merc should have not pitted when Max did..

They had no choice. Best to cover RB.

They're nearly into the medium window.

 

[MrKnifey]

They will box verstappen when Perez is in Hamilton pit window.. I bet you 100%

 

[Mr Jack]

Merc are better on tyres than Max because Max flatspotted the set of mediums he was supposed to start on.

TBF Toto did confirm yesterday that his engine is about 2 tenths down compared to Hamiltons. I'm not a fan of Bottas but the criticism goes a bit too far.

Fortunately Perez is falling back. Sounds like merc still have hards available.

 

[Psycho Ned]

Perez is 30 seconds behind, unless there's a problem Ham shouldn't see him again.

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Merc going to get Bottas to stop on track after Max has pitted to give Hamilton a free pit stop.
