No consistency whatsoever. They need to scrap current rule & bring permanent race stewards ever GP.

The whole MB team is a disgrace. They deserve no further wins. Sore losers and plain disgusting.

**Michal2_F1** · 8th July 2018, 15:19

So much fuss about illegal battery and nothing. Now these accusations. This is becoming a joke right now.

**mwk360** · 8th July 2018, 15:21

Wolff says that Raikkonen's contact with Hamilton at the start was a racing incident but then quotes James Allison saying "it's either deliberate or incompetence"

YES.....totally true.....and now that Ferrari have caought and is starting to outperforming them, they're starting to cream their pants.....LOL

The qualifying yesterday was thrilling and the best by far this year! Then the race proved to be even more exciting and one of the best in the past 20 years! Reminds me of Ferrari vs. Mclaren, Michael vs. Mika! So epic!

If we continue with our lightning starts (without incident of course), then we will be in the hunt for victories in every race even if we fail to get pole. Mercedes looks like they are under pressure at the moment and we should capitalize on this. They have made 2 back to back strategic blunders the past two races, which is unheard of when their car was dominant. They are seeing RED and they are shaking in their boots! I'm lovin' it!!!

I'm ok with Kimi's penalty but again, the stewards should be consistent. It seems the trigger for a penalty is when you gain a place when you touch another car. However, Max did the same to Kimi in Austria but nothing happened to him. This should be settled once and for all and shouldn't be interpreted differently every race and with different teams involved. We have always been at the receiving end when it's our drivers who are at fault but when it is Golden Boy (Max), Rapper Boy (Lewis) and his whipping boy (Bottas) are involved, they remain unscathed.

I am looking forward to the coming races, especially the fast tracks as it seems we have overtaken the Mercs in terms of engine power. Nonetheless, the guys in Maranello shouldn't be complacent and continue with their in-season development, especially after the break, when the Mercs are usually strong towards the end the of the season.

**Michal2_F1** · 8th July 2018, 15:23

Controversial LOL. Mercedes and Hamilton are so used to winning that when they are losing there's a conspiracy.

He waited and waited and took Bottas.

Yes, that was great! He showed good patience there!

Poor hamilton... Kimi crashing into him on purpose is very unfair...

What clowns can actually think that's what happened... Merc crying cause they finally got caught and can't find any more ways to cheat

**jgonzalesm6** · 8th July 2018, 15:28

Yes Toto, class act along with your podium 2 crybaby......For being the "standard" of F1 for the past 4yrs, you came crumbling down on the track and post race interviews. Face it, you guys cannot handle defeat when the tires were against us and a 10sec penalty was against us.....on a track that has been dominated by MB.

Still remember what he said during his Ferrari days, that there were plenty of talented people within the Italian team to work on the car, without having to depend on outside recruit. Turn out to be true right now.

I thought I was gonna lose some sleep with his departure during that time. But right now, oh good riddance!

**TonyRizza** · 8th July 2018, 15:29

Irony is incompetence is the reason he's at Merc now

**mwk360** · 8th July 2018, 15:30

Vettel on the Lap 1 incident: It's silly to think that anything happened was deliberate. I don't think there was an intention and l think it's unnecessary to even go there [with suggestions of deliberate intent].

**prancing horse** · 8th July 2018, 15:30

I don't think anyone at Ferrari is thinking about this race.
Already looking forward to German GP.
Also they were trying stuff on Friday for Belgian GP.
Very focused which is very worrying Mercs and they know it too well.
Reminds me of the Schumi days.

**KimiBot** · 8th July 2018, 15:31

It was a great start from Seb, any videos about that?

**da_one** · 8th July 2018, 15:31

Cry all you want Lewis and the rest of your sour grapes team. We will be on PARTY MODE all night long!

**mwk360** · 8th July 2018, 15:32

ham sounds dead right now post interview

**ScuderiaBuckeye** · 8th July 2018, 15:34

France two weekends ago it is a 5 sec penalty for locking up your tires and hitting a driver at the start.

Two weekends later in Britain the penalty is 10 secs.

**mwk360** · 8th July 2018, 15:34

Max said he had a brake by wire problem, ric never hit him

**mwk360** · 8th July 2018, 15:35

what type of track is the German GP? power?downforce?,medium?high speed cornering?
