Coz Hamilton tires were still relatively new too. If they pitted him, he would be further behind and would not be able to overtake coz the Ferraris were also on new tires. By not pitting, he is at least ahead of 1 Ferrari, so that was the right call.
Hmm not really true as well, coz actually Mercs go for the only chance of winning by not pitting Bottas, gambling that he would have enough tires to fend off Seb. If they pitted him, again similar case like with Ham whereby he would end up further behind and cannot overtake the 2 Ferraris with also new tires. He might be even behind Ric.
Well that's their frustration talking. Instead of making accusations like that, they should figure out how to do better starts in the future because both incidents happened due to them not starting as well as the Ferraris and got punted!

Ham behaved like the diva that he is though, leaving the customary interview spot/session.
Anyway agree that this is the F1 we all craving for! Several cars with similar speeds battling hard at the end.  The biggest looser though here are RB & Renault engine as they obviously now lags a bit far behind the top 2. They gonna get murdered in Monza if things stay the same.

It's a pity Leclerc run of points ended. Battle in the midfield is very close though for drivers and constructors.

Personally I don't think we'll see it that often. You'll need SC for 10 or so laps so that they are not fuel limited. Otherwise it's just coasting during some part of the races. That's why they want to take kers out in future engines.

The problem with f1 cars is that they cannot be driven too slow, else down force not working, and you don't have grip. Vettel went too cautious/slow.

The slow motion showed Seb locked all 4wheels. I think he panicked a bit there. I thought he will be able to get away if he let go and go into a spin instead.

I hope Hamilton get penalised for the pitlane issue. Win goes to Bottas, Kimi closer in points to leaders.

Sounds so sour.

I think Botta will get his chance in a year or two when new regulations kick in.

Rains is pouring down now. Verstappen gamble would have paid off if the rain comes earlier.

Either way, good for us. Got something to watched. Haha

Yes, but it's somewhat feels like fabricated as well that we have to rely on weather in order to get some suspense in the race which really sounds pathetic.

I really hope that we only get 2 tires choice and teams don't have to use both. Race their hearts out or play the strategy game and do the long boring race.

Really miss those days like what Schumi did once by winning with 4 stops.

vettel already a few times lock up tyre before accident

His tires are overheating running behind a slower Kimi. You can't blame him for that. That's why he kept complaining on radio.

kinda funny really merc advertise "free to race" but simply not today or in this case for bottas as he and kimi a clear no 2

not that kimi and bottas can do anything, perhaps even bottas contract state clear no 2 if not GTFO lol
*
I don't think neither team made a mistake with team orders. Half way into the season with no clear favourite between Lewis and Seb. Plus they already into final 1/3 of the race.

KR was voted drivers of the day but I think VB is the man of the race. He holds off KR, and then he could have gotten back at Max but played it safe since he can see Max is raging... however he still gets the last laugh and even pull alongside to fuel his rage.

It's Vettel again. Not sure if Hamilton or Alonso driving Ferrari since last year, will they already won the championship last year and running on top right now...

I think Seb has been like that since his RBR days. He just want to stay ahead if he can. Sometimes he gets away but other time he left himself with too much work to do.

Bad day, bad strategy..shud have trial & error those yellow strips during practice, instead of going for top position in supersoft

No, they don’t have the luxury. Ferrari only bring one set for Seb and two sets for Kimi.

Huh? Did you listen to the commentator and then turn off the tv?

Still plenty left and it was a red sea. Mercedes being booed from beginning till the end.

The race is so inconsistent except for Leclerc. Lewis is so slow after pitting that I thought Seb would pull away but he didn't. Instead Lewis pitted for medium and pull one off soon after.

Seb is definitely off this year. I wonder if he's feeling the heat from Leclerc. Twice he overtook someone but couldn't pull away and being consumed instead.

I forgot to mention that Max will definitely come up with some conspiracy about the SC in the final 3 laps.

LoL Ferrari...

Ferrari only look good during Schumi era when it comes to calling pit stops and qualifying.

They are literally jokers nowadays...
