Too bad about Gasly, he actually had good start and in the end just got unlucky.

Hamilton messed up big time. This is how championships are lost.

Based on each drivers performance to date this season Verstappen deserves to be champion this year. Hamilton had the race win if he hadn't bottled it today. His own fault, one of way too many mistakes he has made this year.

To be honest, Mercedes have been under-performing since pre-season testing and regulations changing. Hamilton's moves this season are often of a more desperate driver in a slower car. I am reminded of Vettel in a Ferrari.

Overall, the random sprint race and penalties for mechanical failures are not a good idea for a fair sport. Neither is the points system.

It looks like Hamilton has his work cut out for him tomorrow unless someone has a bad start. Once in the dirty air, he really didn't even make a challenge on the McLarens, and they were losing ground to Max and Valterri. Out in front, Bottas didn't seem to have any issues, and I was shocked that Max seemed to be able to stay with him. I'm not really sure if either of them pushed it much though, as they traded some fast laps but there was little to gain in really pushing it.

Sucks for Gasly. Though it was his own mistake, I think he would have finished getting past Hamilton. I'm surprised he didn't back off, but at that point nobody could really do a damage assessment on the wing, and with the short sprint, he wasn't going to recover from a replacement anyway.

If the Merc engine problems continue and Lewis has to take penalties, Max might be out of that potential problem zone as far as points go.

Lewis has lost most of his positions this year on starts, and Max has had quite a few really good holeshots as well. The only hope for the race is that Merc has good long term race pace, and can find the gaps to use it. Valterri might have a hard day just to work up to the points.

Well…crazy max has done it again.
Pure madness. Squeezed Hamilton on lap one and then oddly claims that hamilron sidnt leave him space even though he mounted the curb and pretty much turned into Hamilton. 100% Mad max fault.
Of course stupid Brundle is trying to play neutral talking about a race incident. Laughable. If it was anyone but max he would be all over them. Wtf is he talking about. Laughable commentary.

Agreed plus Max was far less alongside Lewis there than Lewis was on Max at Copse in Silverstone. If Max doesn't get a penalty for that then it makes a joke of F1. I fully expect no penalty for him such is the idiocy of F1 stewards. Brundle is a moron and has no business commentating anymore.

SkyF1 is really pissing me off. Lol “they took each other off” Nope! Mad Max took out Hamilton. End of story! Didnt even check on Hamilton. Class act! Smh

Norris needs to pipe down. He isn’t faster than Ricciardo at all.
Also RBR continue their stupidity by not telling Perez to give back the spot. And Perez should have known better

Ah, i see the usual Hamilton fanboys have arrived.

Hard to tell who's at fault here, neither of them has done anything to avoid the accident. I would put the blame more towards hamilton because he didn't leave enough space and pushed max off.
