Difficult to see anything other than a red bull 1-2, the car is more than good enough for that. If Ferrari keep falling away like that, Mercedes may just pip them

Max in a league of one, utter utter domination.
Meanwhile Ferrari are somehow letting Mercedes sneak a chance at 2nd.

He didn’t ‘cruise’ to victory. You make it sound easy. He did a brilliant job making the tires work and fool Mercedes to thinking they were going to do a 2 stops strategy. Great job all around.

No, he cruised. Perez had a slow stop and still pressured Hamilton for most of the race. They were on the better strategy because their car can pull that off. Simple as that. He didn’t go beyond expectations, he did exactly what was planned.
But then again, on this forum there are people who still insists that car isn’t dominant, maybe not even a race winner, it’s all on Super Max, we know how that is..

Mercedes just choose the wrong tyre otherwise i think Lewis had a very good chance on winning
