    These are not race fans. These are fans of our senior-citizen-car manufacturer. That's a big difference in Germany.

    Best Regards from Germany

    Can we officially say that both championships are lost? Hamilton and Mercedes-Benz will once again win the championship. So sad.......

    No wrong again, what I am debating is the fact you stated you were turning off from watching the race because Bottas was told to hold station, yet when Kimi was told to let Vettel pass him in a slightly embarrassing manner, you were ok with that, double standards.?

    You really need to like cool your jets mate, like cig mentioned that much angst is not healthy, afterall it is a sport. ...BTW where do you want me to jog too ..?

    Right then. We're still quick. The season is just barely half over.

    Heads up and on to Hungary.

    BOTTAS CAN ONLY BE WDC IF HE'S CONSISTENTLY SCORE POINTS LIKE NICO DID IN 2016 .

    Now we're talking!
    Big difference with last year: we probably have the fastest car.

    Perhaps Vettel is distracted by Marchione illness and leaving the organization. Uhhh yeah that’s it. They’re probably really close and Seb is distraught about Sergio’s health and that’s why he crashed and handed this race to Elton. Yeah that’s it.

    Ferrari had some scruples and took some time to clearly tell Kimi - one can never tell what would have happened if, but to me it's clear that was a mistake since it cost some time to Vettel.
    Mercedes was right, if not for their hypocrisy.

    If you support Mercedes you can say that. As quickly as things changed this race they can change in the next.

    I understand you perfectly, but l have been watching F1 since '84 and I believe that the team will go back to their meltdown mode and implode once again. Believe me, I hope that I'm wrong this time :)

    Sadly, the season is probably over now. But I will continue to support the Scuderia as I have my entire life, rain or shine, in sickness and in health...

    I do hope Ferrari point that out for post-race review by the FIA.

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    This is Seb’s first major screw up this season. He has been driving great. The team has been developing the car wonderfully. The team has been functioning better than ever and are on their way up. This incident is the first and only chink in the armor this season. However Mercedes on the other hand have been showing multiple signs of breakdown and weakness. They are on their way down. They are not the team they were two years ago and in a negative way.

    Put it this way, if I was betting, I would bet on Elton and Mercedes.

    But I am a tifosi, so I support my team until the end.
