SpanishGP 2020: Race

[tifosi1993]

Bottas on Mercedes party mode, 22.0 in sector 1 and FL out of nowhere.

[chinmay]

Would be tough for Vettel to hold position with 2 laps remaining.

[elnano14]

So then, what's the point of pitting him for softs 2nd stint and expecting him doing 1 stop ? He had already asked them about the strategy but they completely ignored him

[stefa]

Hats down to SV for driving those tires for 36 laps!!!

[tifosi1993]

Nah...Vettel is fine. P7 for him.

[Greig]

Nice job Seb.

[stefa]

Good drive by SV

[nani_s23]

Good job by vettel .... keeping faster cars behind .. managing with 1stop.

[jgonzalesm6]

Seb P7....well done on those tires.

Because there was a chance of rain and soft was holding up quite well. And it's not like Ferrari were the only one to put him on softs, Mclaren did the same with both of their drivers, so did Renault with Ocon and Haas with Magnussen

[killer]

4 place swing. Good work, Seb.

[JPMFerrari]

Vettel salvages 7th.

[Schumiklub]

Vettel rescuing a bit of points for Ferrari. Awesome drive with softs.

And so did Schumi in his Benetton....what is your point?

And went from WDC to 3rd...

[nani_s23]

Driver of the day : Vettel

[drax]

Great Drive Seb !

[Greig]

And went from WDC to 3rd...

Yeah and to 7 x WDC....duh

[Rishu]

Good job Seb
Valtteri Butler beaten by Max. Haha

[chinmay]

On top of his extreme slow performances, Bottas also had the audacity to ask for 2 years contract.

[nani_s23]

Lewis racing against incapable teammate

[tifosi1993]

Valtteri Butler beaten by Max. Haha

Butler is wasting that Mercedes seat. It's quite infuriating tbh. Even Rubens was more of a challenge to Michael.

To spice up the show, F1 needs Max in that second Mercedes.

My thoughts too... Max or Lec against Ham. We can imagine Lewis frustration

[nani_s23]

Next is Spa.... more worried

Both Mclaren did 2 stops at the end. Ocon and Haas completely out of the points. The problem is not 1 stop or 2 stop, it's the team when Seb asked should he push (and pit again) or not (1 stop) but they IGNORED him

[WS6TransAm01]

Yeah and to 7 x WDC....duh

When there was no engine freeze, unlimited private testing and capable people leading the teams. Dude. How delusional are you? Are you really comparing the two eras? Ferrari has the market cornered on incompetence at the moment. They can’t figure out how to correlate wind tunnel data with the real world FOR OVER TEN YEARS!

Your feeble attempts and defending the teams utter failures are hysterical.

Nah...Mercedes can have Max. There's no way in hell I would want Charles to end up at Mercedes.

Support another team already......

[SashAlex]

So Sbinotto threatened to leave Ferrari in 2018 if they kept Arrivabene as the TP and in less than 2 years he's brought Ferrari to this, with another 2 years of struggle ahead at least, cheating with the engine without a plan B and accepting something FIA couldn't prove.

Bravo! Bravo!

Crap chassis, weak engine, problems with reliability, dumb tactics, slow as pit crew. Absolute mediocrity.

What is left is only the name. Happy Seb is getting his out of this mess and poor Charles for having to endure ahead this italian mediocrity.

[Hornet]

I'm glad Vettel manage to held on to P7 and salvage something, in what was otherwise a rather dark day for us.

Wish I could say Charles issue was a surprise, but we've already had few reliability issues in FP this season.
And I'm not even sure what's happening at our pit wall.

We have a huge mountain to climb ahead of us. As always, we can only hope we'll comeback in good shape come 2022

[ntukza]

It's like the whole team is rotten.

That's the scary part. Sure, Vettel is leaving and a new driver is coming, but the problem is not the drivers, it's the TEAM. We certainly look like one of the worst teams out there at the moment, and I'm not talking about the performance of the car, I'm talking about the skill, ability and mentality of the team. I mean look at the Red Bull and Merc teams respond to tough situations in a matter of a week or two. We can't respond, we can't plan, we can't strategise, we can't develop, and we need a season or two and some rule changes to have a hope of turning things around. It's quite frustrating.
