An hour to go till lights out.
Seb has stuck his Ferrari on Pole with Lewis in second.

Could we have our first non Mercedes win of the season?
Will the wall of champions claim another driver?

These and other questions will be answered in the next exciting episode of the F1 2019 season

Everyone has suggested he turned his wheel this way or that way, but what the camera can never show, is the amount of torque going through the rear wheels. For him to try to turn off the racing line as everyone I have read suggests, forgets to consider the condition of the tyres after coming off the dirt.

I would say there was more chance of an issue had he tried to do this. The rear end would have slammed Hamilton into the wall.

I think the penalty was harsh, it was a racing incident (in that Hamilton pressured the mistake by Vettel, which is part of racing is it not? - and well played by Hamilton!) Hamilton did well to avoid, but Vettel went off before Hamilton reached the apex, and surely would have anticipated Vettel into the wall? I dont think Hamilton has any blame in this at all, however I do think he made a mistake himself for that lack of anticipation.

Ha.ilton is also prone to his own sulks, but is more aware of his media profile (it is the American way after all

).

By the way, I am not a fan of Vettel either.
