But MAX forced Sainz in a mistake and Sainz locked up ..
This was the moment for MAX to take the lead !

MAX won this race with his unseen race skills and with his perfect tire management !
As I said : MAX can win all the remaining races in this season !

Can't say it enough : What a driver !
Can't wait to see that move on Carlo by Max come on replay!!

Was only a matter of time before their tyres gave up the ghost, after that our setup did the job.

Alonso ran a bad race at P9, think they had to remove the flexible wing from his Aston car by the new FIA regulations ..

As i mentioned after quali, they went for a glory run knowing they would struggle in the race even with new engines. Anything to get the Tifosi off their backs.

Gianpiero Lambiase ( MAX's race engineer ) told MAX to slow down ASAP !

Something was wrong with MAX's car . It's not clear yet what was wrong with MAX's car .
But something was wrong with his car while he was leading the race with 11 sec. , that's why Checo was closing the gap to MAX at that moment ...

Maybe an electronics glitch? but with Max's non stop good luck nothing was going to stop him today.
Wondering what it really was.

Agreed. Max is on another level. This sets a new best 50 race record at 36/50 (previously held by Sch at 32/50) and those who cannot appreciate just hate out of pure envy because they either know they won't, or in some cases with a MUCH more dominant car never could because they were simply not good enough to keep their teammates at bay and race consistently at the level Max is now. No offense to Ham, but the guy knows that other than his teammate at MB there was no competition, yet he made his teammates look quite good in the fact that he was never able to gap them the way Max does his teammate. On top of that, losing to Ros is laughable to say the least as he was medicore at best and Bot was even worse yet was able to beat Ham decent amount of the time and would have more if he wasn't asked to 'invert' or 'not race'.
