Maybe, but its basically guaranteed if Lewis is complaining about his tires, they are fine.Getting interesting with some tire wear.

That was harsh for gasly.
Alonso rightly so got 5 for his collision.
Yeah. I guess you have to not knock the person off the track to avoid a penalty.Then they let Sainz just slap Vettel.
Yeah. That was a dumb move imo. Unless they had forecast that rain was coming. But it didn’t.Mercedes screwed the pooch once again! Lewis could have had third or at least 4th.
Yeah either he should have went to the box early or not at all, what they ended up doing was the worst decision...I think Lewis held out hope that he could use the softs at the end, but when that wasn't possible they should have let him finish (especially with his history of doing great things with run down tyres).Dumb move to stop at the end, but also Dumb moment for lewis not stopping when they first called him in 10 laps earlier - he probably would have held 3rd if he made that earlier stop.
The championship fight continues, what a year
Yeah, IMO this is on Lewis more than Mercedes. Had he pitted when they originally wanted, he probably would have finished higher and had a chance to fight at the end. He put himself in no mans land by delaying it. Ocon was the only one to keep his tires for the whole race and according to the commentary he lost 4 seconds alone to Gio on the last lap alone so Lewis would have gotten passed had he stayed out.Dumb move to stop at the end, but also Dumb moment for lewis not stopping when they first called him in 10 laps earlier - he probably would have held 3rd if he made that earlier stop.

If Lewis had stopped when they first wanted him to he would still have been behind Leclerc and Perez and finished 5th. No way to get to third as they would all have been on equal tires. The smart move was to try to finish on the original tires. If he stops. the best he could do was fifth. If he didn't stop, the best he could have finished was third and the worst was fifth unless it started raining heavily. Lewis was right not to trust the team.
