It's so hard to stamp out evil. On to Turkey.

Shout out to Sainz too. His tires died early in both stints in that slow Ferrari. Still pulled out a podium.

Carlos was Mega

Man sometimes you need to shut the fukk up. Lewis wasn't driving too? Whether he lost a step or not, he is still ahead of a prodigy in his physical prime, even though he hasn't had the best car all season.

Champion

Facts. Lewis' tire management was supreme. Verstappen wasn't able to manage his tires nearly as well. In terms of championship points, he was very lucky with the rain and the switch to inters.

Bottas doesn't deserve that 5th place. Couldn't defend against Max even a bit, and then languished in 14th until the rain came.

The Hards were the best race tyres, despite all the talk about Max's pace, once Lewis got on the hards he gapped him easily.

Lewis is only driver I’ve seen that can manage his tires in dirty air. The shyt is incredible and I still can’t figure out how he does it.

That second stint was amazing.

To be fair Perez does it as well.

Lol, just not at the same speed.

I'd consider putting Russell in now honestly

He keeps the car as flat and as close as possible to the racetrack while other drivers will tend to swing from left to right in the corners. Bottas is far slower but he damages tyres quickly because of this swinging style.

 

[MoneyTron]

Bottas still managed a P5?

 

[nyknick]

He's fast lmao

Think about how young Lew was back in 2007-2011

Max is fast but didn't finish P2 today because he was fast. Before it started raining he couldn't get past Ricciardo, got overtaken by Fernando and was going nowhere fast. Props to Red Bull for the timely pit stop, giving credit to Max for P2 today would be the same as giving Bottas props for finishing P5

 

[Obreh Winfrey]

Natalie just tried to throw a bone to Bottas, asking Toto if is feedback on inters helped out Lewis and Toto just ignored that shyt and gave credit to the weatherman

 

[EarlyEarly]

Lando needs to be stripped of that driver of the day

 

[Obreh Winfrey]

They might have to put Lando on 72 hour watch that boy is hurt.

Right? If this is how he takes a race loss, imagine how he would have handled being in Lewis' shoes in 07. He needs to tighten up.
