Championship over. Top job.

 

[PjotrStroganov]

All on vettel. He squeezed Verstappen into raikkonen

Nah, i doubt he even knew RAI was there.

 

[nekkid]

Bellissimo!

Haha.

 

[Frankfurter]

Well, well... chaos. Kind of an all three (Verstappen, Rai, Vet) to be honest. There just wasn't enough space.

 

[Stimpy]

I usually just lurk in this thread but I have to say that was hilarious.

 

[DrM]

Idiot of the race award goes to Kimi

 

[Deadman]

Any get out clauses on Kimi's contract? Best get looking Ferrari bosses.

 

[norinrad]

That was a crazy start.

 

[Ark]

What an extraordinary start. Racing incidents all around, but oh BOY.

 

[Waldo Lydecker]

Fuck Ferrari...

 

[nny]

Lewis is first? Wtf with this start

 

[thenexus6]

Alonso was in the like third for a split second. Damnit

 

[DarkestHour]

Wow. Can't recall the last time I've seen a start like that!

 

[Daffy Duck]

Kimi you fucking moron.

 

[Joni]

Any get out clauses on Kimi's contract? Best get looking Ferrari bosses.

They only need him until Verstappen is free and he picks Ferrari. Seems like Kimi and Vettel want to avoid that.

 

[Breakage]

Both Ferraris out; couldn't make it up.

 

[Risk Breaker]

Fucking Kimi and Vettel, what a fucking pair of cunts.

"Hey guys, we have pole and only RB between us, Merc is all the way behind. It's gonna be a tricky start, so let's just behave like assholes and fuck ourselves (and of course Verstappen and Alonso for good measure) over".

Alonso had such an amazing start too, fffff.

 

[RoyalLaFlame]

Nah, i doubt he even knew RAI was there.

Yeah. Still, both Ferrari drivers fucked up.

 

[Hanmik]

Max didn't move his steering wheel..

 

[bobnowhere]

Holy crap, missed the start. Vettel and Max wrecked, Kimi out? I need replays!

 

[hamchan]

Go Danny Ric!

 

[ramparter]

Blessed WET dream

 

[dragn]

vet fault, no need to go all the way left

 

[Humidex]

Did Vettel pinch in Verstappen at the start?

Holy crap, missed the start. Vettel and Max wrecked, Kimi out? I need replays!

SunhiLegend is your friend.

 

[magimix]

We'll look back and see this as the race where Ferrari threw it all away for the season, and their drivers have only themselves to blame.

Did Vettel pinch in Verstappen at the start?

Verstappen got totally pincered. He had no chance at all.

 

[aspiegamer]

Honestly, most races get boring after the start with no takeovers.

Oh, I agree, but it makes for a crummy headline.

I think all 3 got pinched. Kimi was pretty reckless going in on the inside like that, but Vettel squeezed left not knowing Kimi was on the far side. Welp, we're going to argue over this one for years.

 

[Ty4on]

Kimi went slightly right
Vettel tried to cover Max and went left
Max got squeezed and went slightly left

 

[Aiii]

Max losing out on another win due to no fault of his own. The luck this guy has, jesus.

 

[Theorry]

Ves really has no luck this season its insane.

 

[Lach]

Kimi was just going straight. Max went left into him trying to get out of Vettels way.

 

[DrM]

8th retirement for VER

 

[cromofo]

Holy fucking shit lol mayhem

 

[tlop53]

what a start what a race its going to be

 

[N.A]

People are blaming Kimi and Max? Entirely Vettel's fault.

 

[Psychotext]

Fuck Ferrari...

I really don't think you can put it down to any one car. It's just the sort of shit that happens when there's spray / lack of grip.

 

[Juicy Bob]

$30m a year for Kimi Raikkonen.

 

[SgtCobra]

lololol

 

[jey_16]

Vettel.....smh

 

[CrayToes]

Why are you guys blaming Kimi? He didn't do anything. Vettel caused that whole thing.

 

[dakun]

Nah, i doubt he even knew RAI was there.

Of course he didn't. But he still squeezed Verstappen into a non existing space.

 

[Risgroo]

I don't see how that's Kimi's fault? Looks like Vettel squeezed Max into Kimi to me...

 

[McNum]

Oh, right. Verstappen is out. That's... as expected. I wish he'd finish more races. But at least his exit this time was pretty epic.

 

[Frankfurter]

vet fault, no need to go all the way left

He didn't see Rai and wanted to stay P1, so of course he would go where he did.

 

[Mau5]

People are blaming Kimi and Max? Entirely Vettel's fault.

yeah definitely

 

[Tempy]

Gonna call racing incident and no penalties.

Hulk podium finally?

 

[hamchan]

Poor Alonso's good start ultimately got him into that scrap.

 

[Elvin Atombender]

Vettel thought he could move Verstappen to the side of the track but didn't see that Kimi was there as well.

 

[Randdalf]

Could Hulk get a podium and break the streak?

 

[John_B]

I feel like Vettel didn't help the situation by trying to squeeze Verstappen there.

 

[Par Score]

What a dream start.

Vettel fucks up, fucks himself and fucks Kimi.

Shame for Max and Alonso, did nothing wrong, could do nothing.

Get in there Lewis.
