So only 25k Euro fine for the strong possibility of killing drivers BUT Max gets a 50k Euro fine for touching Lewis's rear wing ? Ridiculous!!!

[DIEK]

It's always the wrong Mercedes! :(

Except if Russel is driving it.

[DIEK]

Uff Carlos...

[jgonzalesm6]

WHOOOAAA....Sainz got lucky there.

WHOOOAAA....Sainz got lucky there.

and another one.

For god's sake

Carlos fault...

[tifosi1993]

That was poor from Carlos. Made two very costly mistakes. If it was Charles, all the crows would've been out now bashing him.

[elnano14]

Street circuits and our drivers don't seem to get well with each other this season...

[tifosi1993]

Ideal lap time

Charles 1:28.061
Carlos 1:28.237

He had enough pace to be in the Q2.

Touché.

Lucky Lewis

[jgonzalesm6]

Lewis with a pucker moment....as well.

Sainz is just pushing the car.....the car is "undrivable."

[tifosi1993]

There's nothing to argue really. Max ignored yellows and got penalized, Hamilton should receive the same punishment for the same error.

[DIEK]

Lucky Lewis

As always.

[tifosi1993]

CHARLES P4!!!!

[DIEK]

Nooo MAx!

[KimiBot]

OMG Max

[tifosi1993]

Max couldn't handle the pressure.

Charles again with his magic lap.

[jgonzalesm6]

DAMMMMN....MAX!!!!

[tifosi1993]

That's how you lose the WDC. Probably needs a new gearbox.

It’s lack of experience & pressure under him. As he’s leading WDC.

I think this is the last turning point of the WDC season. If it’s penalty game over for Max.

If it’s max penalty… Lec P3…. Super lap from him.

And he was running his mouth about how it doesn't matter that Ham has more experience than him. And today he chocked.

He has the car and the talent. But he needs to talk less, do less erratic driving on track and concentrate on the job at hand.

[tifosi1993]

[tifosi1993]

Awwww.... so much passion for Max.

If only you lot show the same support for Ferrari drivers.

Yup agree. He was aggressive in the final corner & even after hitting the wall.
As I told earlier, he’s got talent but arrogant & he doesn’t know how to handle media killing him down.

This is where I rate Leclerc above all. He balances it out. Max & leclerc are exceptional talents. But later is more smart than former.

Championship deciding mistake from Max, he needs to be very lucky to win it from here
