Stop go penalty for Hamilton?

10 second stop go penalty coming for Hamilton, he’ll be last when he’s served it

Red flag now, race stopped. Hamilton completely fecked

Shame he’s not a Ferrari driver as he’d get away with it

 

[Marty___Mcfly]

Red flag - wow lots going on

How many laps into the race have they red flagged it?

27ish out of 53?

Hamilton about to get a completely OTT penalty for pitting when the pit lane was closed is my prediction. The fact that a safety car has closed the gap to nothing will make it even more draconian

Looks like it. Very weird how badly Maclaren came out of those pit stops but if Hamilton is penalised, the team has screwed up not him I reckon.

Confirmed 10 second stop go for Hamilton. Total of about 30 seconds, completely fecked

You sort of feel sorry for Sainz. A few months ago he landed a dream job but now it seems to be a nightmare team.

This is gonna be fun watching a pissed off Hamilton coming from last after his stop go

 

[Marty___Mcfly]

Ham came in straight after the safety car announced so maybe the message re pit lane closure hadn’t got through in time. Giovinazzi was stranger as quite a few cars had gone past the pits before he pulled in so WTF was he up to?!

Merc have ****ed Hamilton badly here, especially as they didn't pit Bottas so clearly realised their mistake. Good news for Lewis is that both Bottas and Max are not in strong positions either so even if he doesn't score many points his Championship lead won't be damaged too badly

 

[Icy Gull]

Hamilton has gone to see the stewards mid race


Can’t help thinking that Mercedes have totally fecked up here

 

[sjamesb3466]

Come on Lewis. Let's show what you've got.

Looking forward to this although I can see an angry Hamilton carving through the field having a crash with Verstappen

 

[sjamesb3466]

Another safety car would be useful for Lewis right now

 

[Frutos]

Verstappen retired, Hamilton 15th, Gasly leading.

Certainly an unusual situation.

 

[Frutos]

Gasly wins for Alpha Tauri, Sainz 0.4 seconds behind in the McLaren.

Apparently you could have got 2000-1 on a Gasly win before the race.

 

[Icy Gull]

Enjoyed that, Gasly to be given his Red Bull seat back and Albon to be relegated to Alpha Tauri?

Whilst Albon definitely hasn't performed, Red Bull have treated him appallingly and regularly compromise his race by using him as Max's strategy Guinea Pig. The whole time Max is at Red Bull his team mate is ****ed as they clearly favour him and always will. That's why Ricciardo left too.

Yep, they did the same with Webber when Vettel was there

Agreed. Have always felt Christian Horner has a touch of the smug Eddie about him and is actually a bit of a *******
