Doublefacy Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Totally agree great race. Bit sorry for Vettel, last two races haven't favored him. Regards RB crash - 100% Maxes fault, cause from Daniels's point if he threw a dummy and Max moved right, then he fully commits to left as rules say you cannt weave. And knowing that Daniel always brakes late for overtake, there was no way he could have backed out of that one. Honestly Max is way too agressive racing team mate. That earlier tire touch was his fault as well, luckily nothing happened then. As much as I believe he is talented, he messes up being all that suborn and hot headed- really needs to grow up. Lewis race was bit lousy as well today, but I like that he has become more patient and mature and picking fights wisely. It's better get some points than DNF like Max. Mercedes does seem to struggle with tire temperatures this year. Overall I love this year so much more fun watching as all top 3 teams are capable of winning races.

Disagree with it being 100% Verstappens fault, Ricciardo has admitted he left it too late for the move to the left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although praised by Coulthard for making the overtake move,had Vettel played the waiting game he probably would have won. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Not exactly a thrilling race by any means. WTF is Grosjean doing, think his days are limited Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattdavies Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 WTF is Grosjean doing, think his days are limited He is not having the best couple of races. Hamilton seemed in a different league this race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T2 MSW Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Not exactly a thrilling race by any means. WTF is Grosjean doing, think his days are limited I agree, his days are numbered if his season doesn't Pick up in the next few races, if we get to mid way though the season and he's sill on no points Haas myst review his position in the team. Brendon Hartley is also at risk IMO, which is a shame as I think he's a quality driver - its just not working for him in F1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annabella Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Think Max needs to watch it too, smacking into Sirotkin under safety car. Could have been a lot worse for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattdavies Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Christian Horner is starting to irritate me slightly with his moaning about certain aspects of the sport, and more importantly his " .... Showed the true pace of the Red Bull at the end of the race..". if this is the case why not do it the whole god damn race, Red Bull clearly haven't got it all sorted yet and I find his comments to try justify themselves as a contender annoying. Basically I feel there should be less talk and more do ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobgoblin Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 Again, Verstappen runs out of talent, failure to get to Q1 is just unforgivable. One of these weekends he is going to be standing behind Grosjean in the dole queue! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
