That was Stroll's fault, surely?

both just as bad. No reason stroll should have needed to check that mirror what was Latifi even doing. But even with no reason, stroll should still be checking

I’d love to see them both replaced, neither of them bring anything to the grid.
 
I think we’ll see someone else in that Williams before the end of the season. What a liability.
 
Probably slightly more on Stroll but I guess he wasn’t expecting the guy who just let him past to try send one up the inside 2 corners later!

Look at his positioning, he slows well off the racing line and then leaves no space on the corner itself. That's on Stroll.

They’re both equally useless and likely to cause an accident at every event. I agree with you though, no need for Stroll to cut across like that on a slow lap.
 
Just after red flag came out, there was a great graphic on screen showing comparison between Max and Lewis through corner six.

Perfectly showing the Merc has a perfectly fine power unit, the lack of lap time is completely and utterly areo based.

Lewis has to brake earlier and harder, as corner speed needs to be lower than Max, to stay on the track, then Lewis is far later back on throttle as he has to wait, as car is unsteady on corner exit, all due to lack of grip.

Once they get the aero sorted, they will be straight back up to the top.
 
@Mr Jack - I owe you an apology. I miss spoke in a previous race thread, where I said people on this forums laughed when Max crashed at Silverstone. I went back and looked, they didn’t. I misremembered and then misspoke. So my apologies for that. I was going to post in the original thread about it but I think lots of posts got deleted.

What I will say is I was at the race live and to a man/woman, every other British fan around me was laughing. I found it quite shocking as a life long F1 fan, almost inhumane. However that’s got nothing to do with OCUK.

Yeah I saw that. Lewis later on the brakes but max much earlier on the power which fits with your point.
 
Nailed on penalty for Perez if they’ve “noted” him failing to slow for yellows, Shirley?

Silverstone ‘99. When Schumi stacked it, I think everyone who wasn’t wearing red was laughing and cheering.
 
Have the stewards noted Perez? I saw them mention the incident but haven’t seen anything pop up on the screen. May have missed it though, as was out of room briefly.
