Administrator Stan 18,412 Posted August 2, 2020 Author Administrator Share Posted August 2, 2020 Norris & Gasly getting me some points. And obviously Hamilton. Gasly up 4 places from qualifying. Russell finishing 12th! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Tommy 12,635 Posted August 2, 2020 Moderator Share Posted August 2, 2020 What an ending to the race. "He's a lucky boy" sums it up. But yea, now Red Bull got an extra point instead of 9 extra points. Unlucky. Quite an interesting race with many interesting things happening. Albon crashing Magnussen out, Kvyat crashing, Grosjean trying to kill Sainz... I enjoyed it. Hopefully the next one will feature the Hulk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did... he had to go round the full lap to actually get into the pits though. Hamilton was more lucky as he only had a few corners left until the finish line.

But yea, it took a big amount of skill to bring the car home like he did. Some other hothead would have thrown it away in panic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When that tire blew, the handling of that car as it began to spark up and catch fire, and then finish in 1st? Stellar performance from Lewis.

See, that's why ORF is better - the commentators immediately said it was a tyre puncture as it happened and they showed the slow-mo analysis of the accident showing how it happened straight after the race In all seriousness, it was a scary crash. He went straight into the wall. No tyre barriers, no armco... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly a hard and scary crash, and I'm just glad he is alright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Tommy 12,635 Posted August 4, 2020 Moderator Share Posted August 4, 2020 The full version is even better. After Mattia's message you can see Seb slowly reaching for the radio button, and then deciding against it. And then there was a whole minute of silence before the engineer asked for a radio check. https://streamable.com/s3x2lg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
