“So that's why I think the second and third stints were nowhere - not because the pace was bad, just because we had no chance to come back in front.” LeClerc
by the time Leclerc-Bottas and Leclerc-Hamilton skirmishes were over, Ferrari knew they fucked up.

On a different note, who do you guys think will have the most fastest lap points by the end of the season? Mercedes and Ferrari seem comfortably ahead, but the RedBulls have less to lose.

I actually think Gasly will end off with the most since he's healthily off the top 5, but can still open up enough of a gap to the midfield most races to pit for fresh tires.

well, if Ferrari continues to screw over Leclerc then he should beat Gasly. healthily top 5 > healthily top 6.

Bottas seems solid and Hamilton seems tilted in a couple of ocasions. Bottas usually starts strong and fades throught the season, but it seems this year he is starting stronger than usual.

Ocon must be a sad guy at this point.

some blame it on:
Reigning Formula 1 World Champion Lewis Hamilton says Mercedes teammate Valtteri Bottas has been given “a nice helping hand” by one of the Briton’s long-term race engineers crossing the garage to work with the Finn in the sister car.

“This year he has my number two engineer… and he is learning a lot from that,” the champion told reporters at the Spanish Grand Prix. “That’s to be expected, the little bit of a step that he’s taken.
...
The Finn’s previous race engineer Tony Ross left the Formula 1 team at the end of last season to lead the engineering side at the Mercedes HWA Racelab Formula E outfit that is due to debut later this year. His place was taken by Italian Riccardo Musconi, previously Hamilton’s performance engineer.

An F1 veteran, Musconi engineered for Rubens Barrichello during the Brazilian’s season with Brawn GP in 2009. With Mercedes, he worked with Nico Rosberg.
obviously Bottas did rise to the challenge but yea, it looks like multiple things converged.

edit: more of the same https://f1i.com/news/331996-new-mercedes-race-engineer-akin-to-fresh-start-for-bottas.html

Bottas and bad starts name a better duo....guy just ruins all his hard work with his starts. Should be comfortable for Hamilton now you would think with having priority on pitting, we shall see though.

Vettel is having such a bad year. Why is he acting like some young driver and locks up completely on his own after getting a fast start? He's a 4 time champion...

There were question marks over his driving skills even during his 4 WDC winning years. The years at Ferrari has not been kind to him. Not sure if the pressure of delivering a WCC for Ferrari is getting to him.

Kimi left Ferrari and his performance this year has been outstanding.


E-
Vettel going on meds. 2stop strat
Verstappen covers with soft. 2stopper too
Ferrari doing a wonderful job fucking Vettel up now LOL

He's consistently shown that he does bad under pressure throughout this and last season. Every time he's even close to another car he does something dumb. He's a fast driver, there's no doubt about that, but he's a bad racer.

Also Ferrari fucking up strategy again. Hard on Leclerc what in the absolute fuck? Not to mention letting the faster car sit behind the slower one on a track where overtaking is difficult, for 4-5 laps too many, twice in the same race.

Instead of letting lapped cars go around and unlap themselves, having to wait until they rejoin at the back before being able to restart the race, they could let all lapped cars drive through the pits and rejoin the back of the field that way instead. Don't think any series does this, but imo that would be a good solution, especially on longer tracks and/or endurance races, where unlapping yourself is a ridiculous advantage.

Exactly, Vettel is strongest when he has an empty field in front of him. But even then we remember races where pressure from behind would force him to make mistakes. Something Ham never does.

Oof, I saw the news that Niki Lauda passed away. I'm pretty sad about it. He seemed like an amazing person. He was so funny in interviews and kept pushing, even after everything he's been through.

RIP Niki
