*since

Won’t even bother to try to explain again the difference between “unnecessary” and “to blame” seems you don’t seem to be getting it.

Yet the 6-time world champion with 13 year experience couldn’t process that as a dangerous situation and back off, especially since it was practice?

Never said it was his fault, take your bitterness out on somebody else.

But he was not on a fast lap and surely he would know it would be a mess due to the red flag.
Just a bit of an unnecessary risk

He looked pretty flat out, rather than driving to the maximum lap time.

Not saying it’s his fault, but maybe he might have seen it coming?
There had just been a red flag which had messed up the last qualy run. […]

I believe tyre pressures have essentially doubled in the last 10-15 years

Considering Hamilton wasn’t going to do a lap and knew others were, was it really necessary to have that big of a closing speed?

The Ferrari engineer stole information from Ferrari when he left the company to join McLaren, so of course Ferrari wasn’t penalised.

If Mercedes agree to send CAD drawings or parts to RP, both are going against […]

If you care for tight competition from P3 onwards, good for you. I care for tight competition for the wins and the championships. I care about technical innovations and independent teams taking the fight to big […]

Yes, it’s going to be thrilling to see Red bull and Ferrari fight to the death with 14 Mercedes copies while the actual Mercedes has a 1s
advantage at every race… Exactly what I want to watch at the pinnacle […]

I believe a lot of people were marginal with the front left last week including Verstappen himself. His tyre had about 50 cuts in it before he pitted with two laps to go.

Also I don’t think McLaren had it as […]

What conspiracy theory are we supposed to see here?
Surely it would make a lot more sense if RP had the same issues as Mercedes, since they are racing a copy of their 2019 car

They beat us so they must be cheating.

The mark of a true champion…

Mercedes are not in deep waters?
I wouldn’t be so certain. They seem to have sold illegal information and parts to RP, which is just as illegal as what RP did.

It was obvious that Vettel didn’t have the pace to match the Mercedes. If he had, he would have sailed past Leclerc easily.
Ferrari were either deluded or decided to put all their bets on the supposedly faster […]

That might be so, but McLaren are now on the rise while Ferrari are inexorably falling behind Red Bull and the team doesn’t look united at all (indeed, Marchionne wouldn’t make a good president for any sport team)

That’s a fair point about PDVSA, I hadn’t thought about that.

What an incredible mess.
We’ll need a memo with all the tyre rules next to us when we watch the races!
