Yep...peoples can blame Leclerc as much as they like (and quite rightly, it was a clumsy move) for the crash with Perez...but Verstappen drove into the tyre barrier all by himself.

I'm surprised no one brought it up yet. But I think RUS proved he can be a future champ today, if he is paired with and learns from HAM. At this point VER has no chance at Merc.

Which is it? RUS showed up and ran an amazing race and only didn’t make the podium due to the team letting him down and then a puncture, but he still ended up in the points.

Well , I thought the Merc pitstop strategy came from Binotto's side !

He showed potential though, that's for sure. And he took it like a champ. Instead of bitching at everyone. So I think he has a future at Merc.

Looking forward to see the Merc tyre change fiasco...done on purpose? by Tot to prevent a win by Russell so contract talks don't go skewif with wild media speculation.The 20k euro fine seems nothing to calm things down. |

One of the Ham fanatics suggested that Ham would've overridden the pit call and therefore avoided all of those variables, but that is some bold speculation as Ham doesn't override a majority of pit calls. Even if it would've happened, you're talking about a driver with massive tenure versus a young guy given a one time replacement role. He can't just call shots like that or he'd burn bridges for the future.

Brutal. These attempts to parse RUS's unreal, flawless race performance against HAM's hypothetical pit stop overrule and puncture avoidance... I mean, come on fellas. Race fans all over the world saw it. RUS Hamilton'd Bottas today. BOT is a perpetual #2 driver against any top tier talent. If F1 is about racing, HAM will have a fellow Brit to fight next year in an equal car that actually fits him. For anyone other than those who want to see HAM coast to his 8th, this is a no-brainer.

Lol every single “expert” plus the stewards say it’s his fault but some people say it’s a shared fault between him and Perez! What do you expect Perez to do? Roll the red carpet for Lecrash? Or maybe avoid him and lose places like Vettel did after last week’s divebomb!
Two years in Ferrari and he did this 4 times: Suzuka 2019, Styria 2020, Bahrain 2020, and Sakhir 2020. |

I’m curious what would’ve happened if Perez hadn’t come across so hard, because Leclerc had clearly just entered extreme plow mode and wasn’t going to be making the turn in anyways.

He would’ve taken third then fell back the field in the next couple of laps just like every Sunday.
