      Jonathan Wheatly the Sporting Director for Red Bull is an annoying little snitch, tell tale tit, whining moron. Perez acting like a complete idiot against Stroll.

      But this is very poor from Lewis - appalling start and is going to start 4th, behind two Merc powered McLaren's and Max on pole. Oh dear! That's the difference between Lewis and Max this season - Max isn't blinking but Lewis? The odd error here and there that is costing him. And we've seen it this afternoon. Second sprint race of the season and the second time Lewis has been caught out. Bet Mercedes are regretting the Bottas engine penalty as well.

      But hey, what about McLaren starting 2nd and 3rd tomorrow! Delighted for Ricciardo - old team mates starting on the front row! Watch out for Lando from P3 (cleaner side of the grid as well). Throw in a safety car tomorrow - who knows?

      Is Lewis beginning to crack..?

      Some of his performances this season are questionable & could be feeling the pressure...

      You have to say Max is the better driver this season. His only real error was Silverstone where his over eagerness in defending against Lewis cost him badly. Aside from that? Not much. I mean, swapping places with Max for tomorrow is bad enough but to be behind the McLaren's as well? Shocker.

      Anything less than a win for Lewis and Mercedes this weekend would be a right balls up given the pace advantage. It looks like they're planning just that.

      Lewis is coming across too cautious in defending his title, if he is to retain his title & go for an 8th then he needs to change his mindset & Merc need to bring further upgrades t9 the car & work on their race day strategies..

      RedBull & Max pretty much flawless...

      I agree. It looks tepid by his standards. He needs to push his elbows out again like he did at Silverstone. Don't even know if Mercedes are planning any more upgrades this season which will mean that he'll have to take more chances. Max certainly isn't blinking anytime soon.

      I've been thinking same thing, he's made more mistakes than usual that's for sure.

      Very naughty Verstappen  :f_steam: He knew he was under the hammer with the postion he was in. Lewis was in prime postion to take very good points where as Verstappen was struggling due to slow pit stop. I'm well pissed off.  :f_steam:

      Merc, with the right race strategy would have won that race today …

      This was basically a reverse copycat of what happened at the start. At the start, Lewis decided to cut the chicane to avoid contact. Here, Max decided to go for the crash...

      Agree.

      And agree.

      Lando is going to be a star.
