And no surprise, Gasly has won driver of the day.
Good, well deserved! Great to see some of the usual backmarkers beating the usual midfielders.

Max is a d******d, he's just saying like it is.
Exactly. Max needs to learn how to overtake. You can’t just run people off the track. I knew he would lose out as soon as a championship wasn’t on the line at the end of the season.
Hamilton calling Max a d******d caught on sky F1 coverage, nothing new there from him.
Fair comment to be honest, Verstappen blaming Hamilton who was not overly aggressive (even at the start) which made sense. Hamilton fell back and Alonso overtook, buying time to assess and then attack. Max raced hard and decided to run Ham wide and touch when it was not necessary?

Williams are the only team on 0 points now. Such a shame. McLaren 3rd in the constructors

I suspect Gasly could be the chosen one to replace him.

replace bottas with Pastor Maldonado

They've still got Wehrlein waiting in the wings as test/reserve driver.
Caporegime
I don't expect him to be on Hamilton's level. I'd take being on Kimi's current level. He's got one of the best seats in F1 and he's so far below the top tier it's not funny. Basically only the pay drivers are worse.
Soldato
But did Wehrlein ever show as much star quality as Gasly, like coming 4th place after only having driven seven grand prixs?

hatings a bit strong, but I want to see a good driver in there. Shouldn't everyone? don't you want to see someone who could at least try and beat ham.
Soldato
Sure, I want to see that. Do Mercedes though?
i doubt it, but you would think they would want someone better than bottas, you still need someone good enough to pick up the wins when ham has bad days/mechanical failures. As well as take points away from Ferrari or whoever is challenging. At least Rosberg could do that majority of the time.
If they don't want a youngster try and temp Riccardo.

I will give it a 5/10 when the poll goes up. The race had it's moments but was nothing special. Gasly thoroughly deserved driver of the day for getting that car 4th across the line. That Honda had some grunt down the straights and is so much better than it was in the McLaren. Much more of this and Alonso is going to have a meltdown.
Verstappen needs to grow up and start accepting responsibility for his own actions.
Bottas does not deserve that seat, plain and simple. The thing is who are they going to put in it for next year? Danny Ric would have been a good choice but I reckon he will be off to Ferrari.
What has happened to Williams? They are not even a shadow of the great team that they used to be.
