Seems I should have included pit stop blunder to my conspiracy theory.

Congratulations to Checo! I feel bad for Russell. That pit stop blunder ruined his day.

Woah. My heart skipped a beat when they announced the puncture to George. Very gutted for him, although this podium is indeed a beauty. Let’s hope RUS gets another chance next week. He so deserves it.

Mercedes turned into Ferrari today with Bottas and Russell both blowing the pit stop. Checo winning and Ocon getting the podium is great. 2 new GP winners this season.

Yeah, it is nice to see a little variety with no Mercedes, Red Bull or Ferrari on the podium again.

This is like the first time since like 2013 or something like that where someone won that wasn’t a driver for Mercedes, RB, or Ferrari.

Congrats to Checo on a well deserved victory, it seems the spirit of Jordan F1 is alive and well in the team, sprinkle a little racing chaos into the mix and watch Eddie Jordan's (former) team take full advantage.

Pierre Gasly Alfa Tauri, Austria this year?


Before that it was Australia 2013, Kimi, Lotus-Renault.




Big congratulations to Checo!

In other news Mercedes actually had 2 swaps in place, they had the fired Ferrari pit crew from the start of the season testing as backups...

Congrats to Checo, and gutted for George, but he showed he is capable. Bottas's bad luck rubbed off...

I think Russel got that rear right puncture overtaking Bottas,
so maybe there was more than bad luck that rubbed off😀

Will be interesting to see if he recieves a penalty for the pit stop tire mess....

While Bottas has had his share of bad luck, his poor starts have ruined his races and also caused trouble for those lined up behind him.

Does Bottas need a reset?

If so how about VB to RB, GR to M and SP to W with poor AA having to miss out on 2021?

Thoughts?

So Wolf says the botched pit stop was caused by a malfunctioning radio. It makes you wonder if it was a gift from Toto to his Tracing Point buddies. 😒

No matter which way you slice it Bottas got showed up by George. Bottas just doesn't have it and his results are the proof.

Russel was impressive today.👍 Sure bottas has had bad luck but all this can be said up to a point. When he needed to make the difference he was never there.

Awesome drives by both Perez & Russell.

They way it stands now, neither will have any real chance to stand on the podium next year.

Horner’s face after Albon got eliminated says it all. Idk why he keeps on giving Albon chance after chance. Albon just isn’t good enough yet and isn’t providing much to the team
Red bull is still owned by a Thai family (51% of the shares). Not sure it’s Horner’s call to make...
