Verstappen his rear wing was replaced on the grid because of a crack. Must be due to these bumps as well.

Dutchies are so fast Greetz Brian

Great race so far. Also e.g. the battle(s) between Lando and Daniel

I have written that part to not crucified by those calling drivers losers and whiners about the bumps they have no capacity for a simple joke.

Dang, that suspension failure was actually pretty scary - Seb was lucky that it struck at a place on the track where there wasn't a lot of danger...in a different sector, that could have been really bad.

Lance Stroll is gonna git this time. I'm confident.

Aaah it seems the new placed curb in turn 8 is the issue/cause of Sebs suspension damage.

Ouch Bottas and Max overtake Charles and both already had a pitstop.

Shows the imperfections of this track. It's time curbstones are replaced by a white line with grass or gravel next to it. Problem solved.

 

[Nick Hill]

Crazy how wide they take T1 at times. I think these cars are just very long (too long, IMO), you risk scrubbing off speed by getting too tight.

Strategist speaking here : Bottas is on a two stopper and is flying and Max is on a one stopper and saves his tires

I saw FP1 on TV and was shocked by how bumpy this track became over the past 3 years. And after the wing at Max's car and the combination of the bumps and the new curbs in turn 8 resulting in Seb's suspension to break, i hope they will repair the track. Imagine the failure would have happened at higher speeds, lets say the back straight. God thing it happened at the exit of a rather medium speed corner than at 330km/h at the straight.

The officials need to repair this track right after the race ends imo. But its too late now for Seb tho. A shame, really. He drove like his Red Bull days the last few races

They have already announced that they will.

[farjam]

I have just played an old F1 V12 engine sound video on YouTube to un-bore myself.

 

[Motowntom]

Maybe it's just old age, but the F1 cars are ugly......

Just listening to V12 sound? i'm watching them racing while this race is going on

Lewis congratz with your 6th!

 

[Kakusso]

Lewis six times world champion! Those that say is just the car are F1 ignorants.

 

[CrimsonEminence]

Hamilton well deserved Champion! Bottas with heureka moment, strong Mclaren, nice lively race!

 

[Enagee]

What can I say... Always look at the bigger picture... Congrats Lewis. He deserves it.

 

[snyperal]

Classy of Seb in the cool down room.
