Yep, there are a ton of curse words being exchanged in the Mercedes garage right now.

Yes but LH drove the call.....it was the team reacting to LH. He had poor situaitonal awareness about the other cars behind him and thought they would stop and be on fresh tires. 50/50 here. Poor LH. He drove it and lost his race literally.

Nice interview with SKY about this. He flat out said he called the team and discussed it.

Now Lewis Hamilton know how the Seattle Seahawks feel!!

Lewis Hamilton admits both he and Mercedes made the call to pit | F1 News

didn't watch the whole race but i thought it's 99% lewis'...

omg.....


I am wondering why the team didn't inform him about Nico wasn't going to pit??

DLSTR

Over confidence and a poor communication chain at the WRONG time. Situational awareness anyone???

alcheng

or the team cannot disclose too much information via radio otherwise it can breach the rule??


but still, hamilton said he thought both rosberg and vettel has pitted... weird....

Maybe Mercedes just wanted the championship race to get a little more interesting? I was honestly impressed by how both LH and NR handled themselves after the race. Glad to see there was no whining or bickering this time (at least on camera).

Also, very disappointing move by Max on that pathetic attempt to pass Grojean. That's the first time I've really felt like he showed his age. He was running so well the whole weekend up to that point. I guess he was just trying for that point. He got too impatient and aggressive, although I can imagine running that shitty Renault engine has got to be frustrating. Interesting that it was the cause of the whole Mercedes debacle.

he did a same move earlier in the race thus i bet he thought it will be the same thing when passing grojean....


riccardo too, his odd move on raikkonen, and no penalty?? is going in those stewards' mind?? basically riccardo just sneak his LF wheel into the ferrari and poke it then took the spot.... weird... weird.....

DLSTR

Bad call for Kimi for sure. Ricci should have been penalized. Max Verst was simply coming in too hot and just a touch stupid. The press said he should own up to his mistake - total rookie mistake it was. Instead he is being a bit stupid denying it. Grosjean can brake anywhere he wants. Duh!

JARblue

Yeah, I rewatched it and saw that earlier move. But he wasn't anywhere near as close to Grosjean though.

And that definitely should have been a foul on Ricciardo when he nudged on Kimi's wheel late. Terrible no call.

It was absolutely terrible driving by Max. He definitely needs to man up and admit his fault. Of course, trying getting a 17 year to admit fault to anything might be a bit of a sisyphean task.

Too bad it took, literally a rookie mistake to bring some action to the parade of tax dodgers GP 2015

The cars are so fast now that Monaco is super boring. I say they should take the wings off or mandate some super low down force configuration next time.
