    The team should have advised Lewis that Vettel was within the SC window...something went wrong ...'we thought we had 3 secs margin' #Toto......system **** up

    Mercedes in full defense mode to ensure Lewis did nothing wrong....calling it a ''glitch'' in the software. Seriously doubt they have worse software than the basic **** we get given!

    Great results!....good race! The Ferraris look faster in sector 2 but gave up some time onthe straights.
    ...Thank you HAAS!
    The shade of red on the SF71H looks stunning!

    They won't because they don't care. Liberty is as much, if not more, to blame as ESPN.

    If it were not for the Haas screw up Hami would have won this race. There is no question about it.

    That's how the breaks go sometimes. But Ferrari still has a lot of work to do-- and they know it. This was unexpected but it happened last year as well.

    Really? He wasn’t pulling away at any point, and when he was asked to chase, he choked

    Poor elton, he got robbed, yet I thought he was a gangsta, and don’t they do the robbing normally? Hehehehe. Sore loser

    You really need to pack it in. Most people here acknowledge that Ferrari has work to do, we're just celebrating a win. What are you doing here exactly?

    If MBz or RBR had won under the same circumstances the Skyboys (and fanboys) would be telling us about "brilliant tactical move by the pit wall brain trust."o_O

    Why don't you Hamilton fanbois go over to the forum that supports him ?

    If you have just come here to troll then FO, I'm sick of this section of fchat that allows trolling from arseholes but bans Ferrari tifosi

    How about the mods doing something constructive and removing the trolls

    Mercedes clearly have the one lap pace, but they are crap in traffic, so ferrari have to get their qualy pace up, or the fia need to look at party mode and see if it’s actually legal. While it is, the Mercedes will be expected to run riot and as long as they start well, ferrari will be second best again this year.

    However, on this day, Vettel had it where it counted...... staying in front in control, unflustered, while elton choked on his very first ‘attack’ and went off road. Tough luck elton, you’ll get no sympathy from me...

    when I look in lap 53 when hamilton plays like a boy at the game steering he just made a mistake and the gap to seb was gaining. so this all has nothing to do anymore with racing in my eyes, it is more modern and of course expensive gaming for great boys

    I'm with you mate, nice start but it's the finish that matters.

    I drove around this circuit a couple of years ago in the 355 and found some of the corners (where Max came unstuck for example) a little tricky if the wrong speed is used ...... very easy to do so overtaking would be even trickier
