Yep, good team next year with Ricciardo joining.

At this stage Albon surely needs dropping, wasted seat.

Nice seeing a competitive McLaren again in F1

Isn't it just.

I'm watching it on Channel 4 and it's live, how come? Thought Sky had all races.

5 second penalty for Albon! Is that some kind of joke? Magnussen was clearly at fault

Clearly Taylor has a second job this weekend as an F1 official, after messing with the fa cup yesterday.

Mercedes having fun out there now. Bottas and Hamilton trading fastest laps back and forth

voodoo ray · « **Reply #1006 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:19:16 pm »

verstappen pretty much is in the middle of nowhere. 10 seconds off bottas and 20 away from leclerc.

A ferrari overtaken by the red bull 2nd team...the fuck

He’s got a pit stop on Leclerc now, a little bit extra and he could pit for softs to go for fastest lap

Mercedes are just driving to a delta. Doesn't make for good viewing so interesting where Liberty take it from here.

Just needs the tv director to focus on the interesting parts of the field, same as the good ones always do.

Bottas puncture

voodoo ray · « **Reply #1013 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:38:10 pm »

bottas has fucked a tyre.

gazzalfc · « **Reply #1014 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:38:59 pm »

Hamilton can get a pit stop in here.

gazzalfc · « **Reply #1015 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:40:21 pm »

Everyones tyres gone off the cliff

voodoo ray · « **Reply #1016 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:40:26 pm »

exact same issue for sainz.

HAMILTON SPARKING BADLY

voodoo ray · « **Reply #1018 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:41:01 pm »

verstappen could win this............

gazzalfc · « **Reply #1019 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:41:21 pm »

He's punctured as well!!!!

TepidT2O · « **Reply #1020 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:41:59 pm »

Wow...

Crazy end!

gazzalfc · « **Reply #1021 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:42:11 pm »

I'll say it...

Hamilton should have been forced to pit with an orange flag

:p

TepidT2O · « **Reply #1022 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:42:26 pm »

Why didn’t they pit Hamilton? The safest option by far!

jillcwhomever · « **Reply #1023 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:42:39 pm »

Hamilton's luck is just amazing.

voodoo ray · « **Reply #1024 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:42:42 pm »

and they're using softer compounds next weekend too.

Samie · « **Reply #1025 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:42:49 pm »

THE FUCK IS HAPPENING HERE?

Qston · « **Reply #1026 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:43:15 pm »

Wow. Just wow

TheShanklyGates · « **Reply #1027 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:43:40 pm »

What an insane finish

El Lobo · « **Reply #1028 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:43:43 pm »

Good heavens

Max would have won at a canter if he hadn’t pitted

Yeah getting a puncture on the last lap is incredible luck

Delamination rather than a puncture... quite scary that so many had it

Welshred · « **Reply #1032 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:45:31 pm »

Haha absolutely nothing happened for 35 laps and then those last 2

Lusty · « **Reply #1033 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:46:26 pm »

Everyone pitting under that safety car made for an entertaining finish!

gazzalfc · « **Reply #1034 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:46:27 pm »

Dani Ric with a nice 4th place

They did push those hard tyres right to the limit though, when did they put them on? Lap 10?

gazzalfc · « **Reply #1036 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:47:11 pm »

So next week's race may be a 2 stopper I guess

Darren G · « **Reply #1037 on:** August 2, 2020, 03:47:20 pm »

Surely they're going to have to rethink the softer compounds for next weekend, right?

Anyone else would have ended up retiring.

2 stoppers next weekend.
