Ferrari built Schumacher a shytty car in 2005 after having one of the most dominant ever and he retired the very next year. Number 8 the hardest of them all.

They forced him out.

Like @Obreh Winfrey said, it's 100% Hamilton's fault. On the TV broadcast they only showed the second time Bono was telling him to box, as he passed the pit entrance.

I was gonna let dudes have it. The broadcast radio is always delayed in case the gotta bleep something. Plus the on board radio is a couple seconds behind (the delay has worsened over the years).

Bruh. Look at the angle that Lewis approaches the pitlane. It would have looked to him that he would have to cross the pitlane line which would have been a penalty.

True but he didn't have to leave F1. Point is, its tough winning a title let alone 7. Things have to consistently go right.

Yes this is the correct answer. I will say the Marshalls and director were so unsafe and dumb during that whole situation. VSC sucks and should be gotten rid of. Also lafifi is pure ass. Idk what happened. Yeah bro you ain't Paul walker

Yeah, Ricciardo’s car was at the edge, I get why he might’ve been a little hesitant. They told him, “watch the pit lane,” which isn’t as cut and dry as people are making it seem.

50/50 blame for Lewis and the wall.

 

[YvrzTrvly]

That's fair really. Unfortunate as kmag got in right before and made up many positions...if it wasn't for shyt luck we would be talking and still should be mentioning how incredible of a drive that was with a shyt car.

Masterclass in tire management

Hulkenberg and Magnussen pitted

 

[Lootha VanDraws]

They'll have a car racing at LeMans next summer.

With all the mechanical problems they were having today, it will be a wonder if the car makes it the full 24 hrs.

 

[KillerB88]

Hulkenberg and Magnussen pitted

They were behind Lewis with more time to react and with subsequently more information from their pitwall.

This head scratcher for real, how Merc so far off the pace like this when they prolly spent more time and bread on it than anyone else

They've been on top since 2014. Can't get it right every year

Yeah thats what I'm thinking, their cycle of dominance might just be over, Yet at the same time Rb haven't dropped off so why Merc.

 

[Ididit]

Its easy to lose that hunger when winning becomes normal. Driver may be a psycho but there are alot of other contributing factors to a winning racing car.

brehs.. it's two races. Car is trash but they can develop.
