Looks like Mercedes is strong in practice.

No "I" in Team. Order was understandable and unavoidable.
VER was left out way too long. He could have come in many laps earlier, still maintained 5th, and have a lot more laps to work on RAI.2020 C8 Corvette.D.O.B 2/03/2020

Man those team orders were disgusting, understandable but still disgusting, its Austria 2002 all over again. Just takes away even more off the little respect I had left for Totto or Bottas. And even Hamilton (not that anyone respects him off the track anyway)... But overall I expected a duller race, and got to mention that sublime performance from Max.

Looking at this very geeky F1 site you can see that VER came for a pit stop on lap 43, 10 laps before the end.. https://www.racefans.net/2018/09/30/...mes-and-tyres/
A pit stop costs a little under 30 seconds in total at Sochi.
RIC who was behind him was more than 30 sec behind him as early as lap 36. This is while VER was in the lead but not gaining, just holding up HAM.
So, my point is that the team could have bought him in 7 laps earlier and he would have come back in 5th and had that much more time to work on RAI.
In the post race interviews it almost sounds like his only goal was 5th and once he got there, played it safe.Last edited by Bikerjulio; 10-04-2018, 07:03 AM.2020 C8 Corvette.D.O.B 2/03/2020
