Hey, at least that wasn’t Ferrari’s last chance or anything! They had the better car in 2018, I’m sure that... ended... well....

“You... have failed... this team.”

Yeah, a last lap pass to win the title with all sorts of controversy attached.  We haven’t seen that in a whole... thirteen years!

... you know that RBR is a British team, right?

Hell, that’s more help for Lewis than Bottas gave him.

They even said it over the radio - they wanted to finish with a race, never mind rules / precedent / safety.  Not Max’s fault, and in line with the rest of the garbage from this season, but still... garbage.

Hell, I’m sure there’s already a few “RB paid off Williams” conspiracy theorists out there.

It was a season full of bullshit all, around, really.  Not surprising this is how it ended.

Toto should have asked the race director whether he had the Drive to Survive team on the other channel when the decision was made to let only five lapped cars through. Because this sure stinks of “we need a dramatic finish to the season, and not a finish under a yellow flag.

That’s just the way F1 works. Aston Martin has been hit by similar situations the last couple of weeks, and Vettel was complaining about the outcome over the radio during the last race.

Why are we even talking about wins? If you go by the argument that points shouldn’t have been awarded - and they shouldn’t - at Spa, then Hamilton would be up 5 points going into the final race (he loses 7.5, Max loses 12.5) and the double-DNF would give him the title on points.

Epically punchable face that sadly will never get punched.

The only person I can think of who matched Bobbie was Nia Jax from WWE.

I get that Discovery has something of a sliding scale, especially in the non-Pike episodes... but if this episode is a B I’m Mickey Mouse.  Possibly the worst episode I’ve ever seen of this mess, and think about the ground THAT covers.

It’s a misread of the audience up there with Mark Millar thinking that people would treat Tony’s side as the faces in Civil War.

I think we all expected Aston to step back this year, but not THIS far back. Neither Stroll nor Vettel seem to be able to get anything out of the car.

On the broadcast they seemed to theorise that Max needed the advantage of the Mediums to jump the restart, but... surely they would have known that they would have been threadbare by the last five laps (which they were; you can see them when he pulls up at the end and they’re pretty beat up).

I wasn’t the only one expecting Bottas’ charge at Ocon to net him fastest lap thanks to DRS, was I?

Yeah, I know, and it’s not like there’s going to be rain or something that might have an off chance of scrambling the field. This isn’t Motorsport Manager 3, where it rains in the Middle East and Phoenix with disturbing regularity....

That Master tease was so head-slappingly blatant that I’m now hoping that it’s a swerve.
