When I was there it was the year McLaren had the really awful engines. The noise they made as they went last... Like they'd used a bucket of bolts instead of engine oil!

Unless we're counting Hamilton parking his car in the fiddly section trying to back Rosberg into Vettel in 16 to try and force his teammate down the order as a championship in the balance. Looking back Vettel seemed to have no intention of passing Rosberg and letting Hamilton equal his 4 WDCs. How times change.

Genie Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 (edited) I was gonna miss the first half of the race tomorrow as my lad has a football match at Solihull, now they moved the kickoff back 30 mins so I’ll probably miss the whole thing. Then we’re out for a meal on the evening. Nightmare. On a plus side my lad has really got into F1 the last few weeks. He’s gutted to be missing it live so I’ll let him watch the highlights when we’re back. Edited December 11, 2021 by Genie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 I see Max is trying the old mind games saying that he is treated differently than others. I hope he loses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farlz Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Mega start. Good stuff. Need Perez to get a big start on those softs tomorrow and I might believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCDAN Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Bottas contribution to the Hamilton title charge is genuinely laughable, it’s almost like he’s purposely driving bad just to spite Mercedes for dumping him. P6 tomorrow so no use whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreveryoung Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 I think it's tactical from Hamilton. Always best to chase in a race with many overtaking points. The Merc is the quicker car. If Hamilton can keep a distance from Verstappen, either get in front on a pit stop or DRS him later in the race. He didn't want Verstappen all over his rear with DRS for the majority of the race, 2nd is ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure most other drivers would have been given far worse punishments for some of his recent misdemeanours. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted December 11, 2021 Moderator Share Posted December 11, 2021 In terms of the front two, Max on softs should get away early but it gives Lewis an advantage in the race. The big questions will be about Hamilton keeping Perez behind him or out of his rear wing in the opening half a dozen laps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think for one second this will happen as it could backfire. Perez just needs to get Infront of Lewis and job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
