Oh shit, is the rain coming?

 

[NickNick]

Pleeeeeease don't have someone put it in the wall if it gets wet causing a safety car finish.

Okay Ham less than 1 second behind Norris, lets see what happens

If it rains, do the front 2 stop?

 

[NickNick]

This is insane

 

[ralphc1]

It's a free stop now.

 

[NickNick]

Come on Lando hold on

 

[ralphc1]

It's one of those times when the leader is kind of stuck.

 

[NickNick]

Madness

 

[Rawex]

Come on Lando hold on

Not looking good, fighting with lapped Mazepin and Tsunoda

 

[Rawex]

And while this is happening, Max is 3rd and might get 2nd

 

[NickNick]

Bottas goes from nowhere to P5, damn

 

[ralphc1]

How did Max get ahead of everyone else?

 

[Deffid]

#100

Sadly Turdstappen was lucky again

Max got 2nd but still this race was a win for Mercs. 1st and 5th

Pitted at the right time with no one else pitting. lando needed to listen and could have stayed with Lewis. What an end!!!!!

I think Max/Red Bull will take P2 from the back of the grid. All signs point to Lewis having to take an engine penalty before the end.

Mercedes had the hammer there. If Norris had pitted for rain tires, would Hamilton have followed or stayed out? We'll never know. It was the same dilemma that Mercedes had when the race started in the rain.

100 wins for the GOAT. Took a while, but what a win.

I find it funny that the F1 teams have all the radar and weather monitoring tools and it came down to them watching the crowd and saying, the umbrellas are out. They all got it wrong.
