wow! Really didn't see that coming. Hamilton was epic and to be fair to him so was MaxV. Ferrari 3rd and 5th, who'd have guessed that right before Q3 on a dry track?
Makes you want to LAP OUT LOUD What a drive,Caps off to the man that was 100%PLUSS from a great driver ,
I admit to being Vettel's fan and supporter, but, perhaps, he isn't as good as he should be, or as I think he is?
I think he’s a really good driver too, very fast and smooth in the mound of Jenson Button but more aggressive and prone to red mist. That said, I don’t believe anyone on the grid today could have done what Hamilton did in that same car. Valtteri is no slouch but seven tenths is a big margin. Also well done to MaxV who drove fantastically well too. If only he didn’t take every opportunity humanly possible to criticise the Renault engine I’d have thought more of him because next year with the Honda inside it he might be thinking the same thing but won’t be able to vent it.
