It is hard rooting for a 19 year-old - the growing pains...

Whomever wins this race will NOT go on to win the F1 Championship according to the last 15+ years.

Problems with Hamilton's car...

Edit: Max done messed up on the corner and took out his teammate. Ugh. Feel bad for Ricciardo

GloryDayz · 07-30-2017, 06:26 AM

Yeah, he sounds mad beyond words...

**Dylan** · 07-30-2017, 06:31 AM

Hamilton of Verstappen: "I don't have a big enough delta to catch him and pass him"

That has always been Hamilton's weakness - When he is not leading....

I always love when the longer-standing drivers criticize younger drivers of mistakes they'll make along the way, and call it "hard racing" when they do it. Then it's always "when" they did the same thing.

Hey, the guy won a ride dude, deal with it.

That being said, turn two is a very early.. But it's F1, not a lot of chances to pass.

**Dylan** · 07-30-2017, 06:47 AM

Hamilton is stuck behind Verstappen (until Vers pits + 10-second penalty). F1 fans were saying all week that Ham would not attempt to jump Verstappen if given the chance.

Broadcasters are saying that Vettel has steering problems - Question is will Merc give unspoken team orders to Bottas to let Ham pass

good way to look at it.

Hamilton is closing to within DRS section (on the straight)... will he try to pass Verstappen? He should...

Those will be 10 very long seconds!

**Dylan** · 07-30-2017, 06:56 AM

After Kimi's pit stop, he closed in on Vettel.

Unspoken team orders will never let Kimi win though - I am sure they pit Kimi to protect Vettel's lead like they did in Monaco

10 seconds is like five-minutes F1 time...

Although, Verstappen will be behind. The kid can put the car where no one else can...

**Dylan** · 07-30-2017, 06:59 AM

Hamilton is closing in on Bottas - Merc will make sure Ham comes out ahead...

**Dylan** · 07-30-2017, 07:02 AM

What did I just say!

Hamilton to Merc team principal: "You have to tell Bottas to let me through!"

what BS!

**Dylan** · 07-30-2017, 07:09 AM

Kimi to team prinicipal: "Why did you bring me in (to pit), my tires were still good."

Kimi knows because 'team orders' Vettel has to win! Unbelievable...

Al Bundy · 07-30-2017, 07:13 AM

If Ferrari wants to lose, they will keep Raikkonen in 2nd place...

GloryDayz · 07-30-2017, 07:19 AM

The stuck right front was a lifetime! F1 pit stops are simply amazing!
