    Just about anyone can be a top driver in a top car. Bring a top racer is another thing altogether.

    No, we all don’t know Stroll is utterly useless. Lance qualified 6th which was better than several other really good drivers. Could he have been better today, yes, but qualifying 6th was nothing to be ashamed of. His teammate drove an unbelievably great qualifying lap today and Lance was not at his best being a third of a second slower, but calling him utterly useless is just not fair.

    Dude, the reference is first and foremost the team mate. The issue is not 6th, the issue is the difference to Hulk that just arrived.

    The call to pit Hulk on lap 45 to softs GIFTED Lance to be ahead of Hulk. Bad call.

    Lance was best of the rest today, when you consider how superior the Mercedes and RedBull cars are, Leclerc did a great job and Lance was next best. If you Ferrari fans want to talk about useless what about Vettel?

    Will be interesting to see why they pitted THEIR FASTER pilot, the faster pilot for the entire weekend. Lance was never a threat.

    The only threat to Nico was the team. Lance was never a threat to anyone and certainly not to Nico LOL.

    CORRECTION: @LawrenceStrollF1 reported a significant vibration in Nico Hulkenberg's car towards the end of the race, hence the call to pit ...

    :p

    That call was a strategy for Hulk to get the fastest lap, no?

    Lance 7th in the WDC with 28 points so far. No a Senna, but not a Taki Inoui either.

    No, Nico reported vibrations on his car hence the pit stop.

    I don't think Hulk had a chance even on the softs with all the front runners and the pace they were putting down. I'm not going to say they are lying about the tire tweet but either way. It would be a dumb team move to have a temp driver finish ahead.

    Neither. I would want Mad Max, Charles, Norris, and maybe some longer shots like Russell, Perez, or Ocon.

    Well, it happened a couple of time ... at Ferrari.

    Remember Mario Andretti, Patrick Tambay or Mika Salo when they were subbing at the Scuderia?

    I don't remember that way backs. Nico obviously earned the points but with that tight mid pack those 2 points may turn into something bigger.
