Lewis wins it, but what a pass from Verstappen on Kimi on the last lap.

Incredible racing.

Absolutely brilliant drive from Verstappen. Going to stop Hamilton winning many more World titles imo.

I think Verstappen could even challenge Schumacher's seven in due course - incredible to think he is only 20, just sheer natural talent and speed.

Why deduct Verstappen 5 secs, stupid decision

Can also depend on the car though. If Lewis' McLaren had been any where near the Red Bull for a few years after his first title he would easily have 5/6 titles by now. Look at Alonso, so talented but the wrong decision at the wrong time can be devastating.

Boooo team Ferrari's muckers pull a stroke to get Kimi back on the podium? Ex Ferrari driver heading the stewards up today?

Maybe it was a fair decision but it hacks me off how they always favour Ferrari and their drivers. :shrug:

I think he’s done well. He’s taken 10 podiums in 17 races without taking many points off Lewis. If Lewis had a more evenly matched teammate who had beaten him a few more times then he wouldn’t have such a huge lead over Vettel. With Ferrari having a number two driver who isn’t allowed to go near the number one, Mercedes simply can’t afford to have two drivers taking points off each other every weekend.

I get what your saying but he's not nearly in the same league. Raikkonen helps Vettel and can protect him at times but Bottas just gives up whenever there is a fight and isn't a good enough in qualifying to stay ahead of the Mercedes rivals. Just a bang average driver

silly- killed a great story to the end of the race. Respect of the track limits is wildly inconsistent. Surprised they want to make that one so messy.
