    Exactly! Rosberg himself said he was in the incorrect mode. It was his mistake that he chose the incorrect setting.

    What are they going to do if Max wins the U.S. G.P. and he's not legally old enough to drink?
    This is my opinion and to the best of my knowledge, that is, if I'm not joking

    So why were Ricciardo and Vettel put on strategies that required overtaking on a circuit where you can't overtake?

    Too funny. That is why I have a new name for him. Period Boy.

    Are you an imbecile? Just wondering, because there was no way that Ferrari was overtaking the Red Bull. Kimi had no tyre advantage and Max didn't make a mistake. The only way he could have overtaken Max would have been by ramming him out.
    And if you want Kimi fired, what do you want done with Period Boy, who was slower than Kimi?

    Ferrari was still the much better car compared to Red Bull.

    Ricciardo was also faster than Period Boy that day.

    Has Lewis actually in public admitted his that he was to blame or is that RTL propaganda?

    Because that was the faster strategy according to Pirelli.

    Only if you had clean air or were able to overtake. I'd be pretty annoyed if I was Ricc. He was quicker than Verstappen, didn't make any mistakes (apart from a desperate move on Vettel) and ended up with nothing.

    Can't help but feeling Helmut Marko got exactly what he wanted.

    Hope you are not accusing Red Bull of accusing one driver over another? That has never happened before ever surely???

    Was he faster than Max?
