    Rosberg won't win the title no matter what he does. That was clear before the season begun. No matter what luck he gets

    As is well known, I'm no LH fan, but even I've gotta doff the cap again. Very nice drive.

    Rosberg had none of that understeer...and wasn't even on the racing line.

    I'm telling you. If Rosberg had done the same to Hamilton, they'd be having his head today.

    Yes but next time if I were Rosberg I would simply say I was having OVERSTEER issues that caused me to slide to the outside (lol) and hit Hambone. ;) :)

    As the pro hammy nbc trio said, the MB is easier on the softs than the other cars. Stupid pit calls helped MB too. Ferrari need some chassis upgrades now.

    Yes I agree. I'd have to review past races to verify but I was referring to the expert TV commentary. I imagine the commentators have reason to say that... a couple of times.

    Rosberg did the same to Hamilton at start of the season - what goes around comes around

    Constructors points are looking better. Hopefully Ferrari will continue to improve.

    Great play between Hamilton and Vettel. We have a real championship now. Its impressive to see a more mature driving from Lewis, back in early days no way he could have kept his tires alive that long. Well deserved win and happy to see Vettel staying in the hunt.

    What's going on with Kimi? 2nd race in a row he's nowhere. Pit call for vettel looked good, I don't think the Ferrari can make the tires last as long as the merc so likely they are further back with a one stop.

    Looking at the replay I guess Lewis can blame understeer. Funny the understeer didn't seem to bother Lewis for the rest of the race. Either way, I think Ferrari at least has a light way down the tunnel. :)

    +1....need another performance to validate Ferrari's pace but great to see Vettel take the fight to Merc and to see Ferrari leapfrog RBR.

    It's quit clear that Mercedes have a much better understanding of the tires than Ferrari does.

    Secondly Hamilton being on the inside after race start in turn two meant he had the upper hand on Rosberg.

    Thirdly, the Mercedes runs best in clean air.

    The three circumstances combined won LH the race.

    Hmm.

    Monaco he had an at fault crash, steered but zero grip. Too fast for circumstances I guess. He was out of position due to a penalty but qualified just .18 behind Vettel, who was on new tires vs Kimi on worn (he only had one run).

    Vettel got to grips with the new suspension extremely quickly. Hopefully Kimi just needs a bit of time.

    Ordinary race. Ferrari waste chance again. LH asleep online, rude T1 but faultless thereafter. Nico R's head not in Montreal. Bottas + Max

    Man Vettel is a fantastic ambassador for Ferrari. He's in good spirits. Joking with Italian press.

    Rosie has never been Champion material. He's been on the dominant team for the last few years, but he himself has never been above second tier.

    Great banter between Lewis and Seb on Sky about suicidal seagulls!
