yco · 03-28-2021, 01:00 PM

well even if you hate or love Lewis.. you experienced his glory and you ll continue to experience it.. no way out..

MKSixer · 03-28-2021, 01:03 PM

Lewis went 27 laps on those tires!! Nearly half the race and THEN held off Max in a faster car with tires that were 10 laps newer.

This is GOAT performance!!

The above was all said at different times about Sir Lewis Hamilton by the following:
Ross Brawn - 8 WDCs
Fernando Alonso - 2 WDCs, 4 WCCs
Sebastian Vettel - 4 WDCs, 4 WCCs

Mercedes W12 - 0.4 seconds per lap slower than the RBR16B
Lewis on tires 10 laps older than Max in a car with the above speed differential.

Lewis wins the race.

I NEVER WANT TO HEAR THAT IT IS THE CAR AGAIN. NEVER.

Preach!!

Plus leaving whatever added time is cheating schumacher style like he won in the pits at the end of the race.
Newey knew it right away, same way max was sent off from the podium before when he overtook kimi in the ferrari offtrack

Fun race, Max tires evened out some, the advantage was fading. Weird rule, you can go off the track and maybe "gain advantage" as long as you are not passing someone ?

Was happy with Ferrari finish.

and sure you have to have a top driver to win, but put him in Williams or Haas and he aint doin squat. Both good, well 7 championships.

Great race to start the season!

I found this picture lol-worthy.

Congrats my good friend !

It's for sure MAX was faster . Too bad he got the 5 sec. penalty .
Otherwise was MAX P1 !

Next time better at Imola !

BTW: Thank God , this was a real race !

Chappers 71 · 03-28-2021, 01:15 PM

Well, it's should be interesting seeing whether it's Bottas or Max that takes second place in the Championship this season

MAX didn’t get a 5 second penalty, he had to give up the position he gained by going outside the white lines.

There a difference.

Faster car, bigger ego = P2
Slower car, better driver = P1

Thank you, my dear friend!

No other driver in that field wins today's race.
Sir Lewis shows why he is the best driver in the current field and the GOAT.

We all saw today that it isn't the car.

No, my friend. VER was catching him by over .75 seconds per lap. Had Sir Lewis been in the RBR he would have won the race. Just like in the Ferrari in 2017 and 2018.

This is great! Keep spinning them webs of lies.

Max = P1 when
Ham = Retired

MAX crossed the line by overtaking . He would get the 5 sec. penalty anyway !

The difference in your statement is BS !

My friend, had he ignored the Race Control directive he may have been penalized with anything up to a DSQ.

Returning the place was his only option.

Someone’s a little upset today.

If you listened to the race - there isn’t a 5 second penalty in that scenario. It’s give up the position or face further consequences.

I guess the truth hurts, the better driver won today.

"Why didn't you just let me go, man?" he said on team radio.

"I could have easily pulled those five seconds [for a penalty]. I am prepared to lose a win like that than be second like this."

But Red Bull had no choice due to a call from Bahrain race control, as team boss Christian Horner explained to the pre-race favourite.

Epic race, this could be one of best F1 seasons in a verrrry long time.
