Bottas for the win. I’d hang the MERC team photo with pride with Bottas holding the WDC trophy.

A perfect storybook ending to his career at Merc. I can visualize the DTS finale, Bottas with Kimi outside the MERC garage.

From a casual observation, his labored breathing on the radio contradicts his comment of “pretty chill”, if this is “chilled” I fear for what excited entails.

Although I understand what he is attempting to do, it comes across a bit poor and contrived.

Need Hammy fans to help me understand his comments.
Hammy is a smart dude, only lets you hear what he wants you to hear!

...and they have to put in some higher ride height for that back end surely,so much for their trick suspension.

Ham gets in front but Max is attacking his lead tying to push him hard with a full fuel load over those bumps,Checo falling back.

Damn ! MAX had lack of traction ..

MAX reaction time was 0.33 sec.
HAM's reaction time was 0.30 sec.

MAX's tires will run hotter and wear faster behind HAM...

I saw that but even with Max's tyre wear he's doing the right thing, keep on pushing to pound that Merc over the bumps.

MAX in pit !!!! Already after only 9 laps ?

If HAM pits : 89 % chance he comes out behind MAX !

Checo in pit ............................
