Red Bull identifies cause of Bahrain GP fuel system failures

From what I saw they said the drop was the reason for his steering issues...not his retirement. That they are still analyzing but suspect something in fuel pump area. And Honda is still doing their power train...just not officially (as in all the same people from Honda).

Yup, was my thoughts too.

Not sure what anglo has to do with it but okay.... 🤔

I think it is fairly simple. Masi had to go due to being found to not follow the rules and as a sacrifice to MB. FIA could not say out right they messed up or there would be more calls for the championship to be over turned. Hamilton fans will always know he was really the champion of the...

Anyone with any bone of non bias will admit the race was not done correctly. If the goal was one lap winner take all then a red flag solution should have been used.

As they were even in points going into the last race, I believe your statement is contradictory.

Well as typical of the season, a cluster. I was shocked the race did not end under safety car actually...and even more shocked the rules were broken to allow a final lap of a select few cars. Max had the better tires and made the lunge he always does. Lewis had to either wreck or give the...

It was definitely a win/win/win scenario...if both cars DNF he keeps the points lead...if Hamilton DNF and he wins the championship is over...even if he got a puncture as long as Hamilton DNF he wins. I am not sure though this much thought went into it. I believe it was an immature reaction...

So if you watch closely, Max moved to the right side and as Lewis got closer he drifted back to the middle of the track...Lewis had to go evasive left to try to minimize the accident but still could not get around him. Drivers of this caliber know when they have been brake checked....happens...

Crazy race...very enjoyable. I do think there should have been a penalty that mattered for the brake check though. That is blatant.

Just gonna comment on this line. You seriously think Bottas could have kept him from passing anyways? If Max could not you know Bottas could not.

It is amazing. Whether you like Hamilton or not, he and Bottas have the same car and Bottas does not deliver like Hamilton does.

Totally agree with @Bikeman315 No matter what he feels towards anyone, his job was to keep the racing line which he gave up instantly...and it was not his first time giving up positions to Max with little effort.

Not looking good for Mercedes....Bottas seems to never catch a break.

You seriously have to put the last name next time....not the Max we mostly know.

As should be obvious, Mercedes did not build their car for Monaco...they built it to win the whole championship which they have been successful every year so far in the hybrid area. Monaco is a small blip on the overall season. Max knows this which is why he underplays it.

Always easy to be Monday morning strategist. Woulda coulda shoulda never happened.

It was over at that point. If they had pitted he would have come out behind Hamilton. And MB had better pace on the medium tires all weekend...so there was no hope.
