It looks like a real problem to follow today, not helped by the high temperatures. Hamilton vs Perez the story for the rest of the race. Decent battle in the closing laps I think.

Administrator Stan 18,408 Posted November 7, 2021 Administrator Share Posted November 7, 2021 Perez not able to get 2nd from where he was and how close he was to Lewis is poor. However I am happy for him to get a podium at his home race. All the fun on the first lap. After that it was a procession for Max and then nothing much else happening around the track.

Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,672 Posted November 7, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted November 7, 2021 So Austin and Mexico City were supposed to be the known quantities in the closing races. Verstappen nicked the "Mercedes track" win and dominated the one he was supposed to win. Hamilton gets the maximum result of 2nd place. Going to be fun to see Checo on the podium. Max has a 19 point lead with four races left. You'd think if he can keep it on the road from now on and win one of the last four then he's the definite favourite for the title.

Lewis on the right, Max to the left and Bottas middle. All 3 side by side going into turn 1. This would be a great scenario. Got the start spot on. Shame about my predictions this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think Bottas could have shown more aggression towards Max? I know Max had the racing line, but even a small nudge to make him think a touch before the braking zone.

Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,672 Posted November 7, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted November 7, 2021 I think Bottas was concentrating too hard on not getting involved with Lewis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Tommy 12,633 Posted November 7, 2021 Moderator Share Posted November 7, 2021 My favourite part was Max trying to black Bottas from getting fastest lap. Top tier shithousery, yet so commited. SUPER MAX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Tommy 12,633 Posted November 8, 2021 Moderator Share Posted November 8, 2021 Btw, anyone else noticed that Alfa Romeo properly messed up Gio's strategy? He was ahead of Vettel, Kimi and Alonso before Alfa decided to pit him away too early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
