Would you be happy if your team screwed you over again and again?
Difficult to say that pitting Bottas to keep him ahead of Max wasn't the obviously correct call. That Bottas then did such a poor job isn't on Mercedes.

Seen so many people elsewhere saying that Hamilton was accusing Red Bull of cheating...
I don't think people realise that the lower limit pressure is just that, a lower limit. They can run higher pressures than that if they want.
Mercedes may have been doing just that and Red Bull may be running at the lower limit. So yes, Red Bull may have been running lower pressures than Mercedes.
But no, just cries of "Hamilton said Red Bull are cheating!!! REEEEEEEEE!"
Hulk brought in for 3rd time seems a really odd choice?
Bottas screwed on strategy?
Great drive by Max.
Hulk to reds at the end just seems bizarre and clearly cost him a place. Not sure what I think about that. Stroll again delivered a solid, unremarkable, drive to bring the car home where it deserved to be. Albon did well passing through the field but was still a massive 36s behind his teammate, and clearly not in the same league. He's just not good enough for that seat.
There's a minimum pressure set by Pirelli, and the pressures are monitored by the FIA. Pressures taken when fitted to the car at the start of the race and the other tyres are routinely checked throughout the weekend.Don’t the FIA put the pressures in? Or just check the tyres after the team do?
Watched the highlights for the first time in a long time. Is it just me or is David Croft the most annoying commentator of all time - just screams constantly.

Lol Hamilton crying... If RB had been running a lower pressure their wear would suffer.

Just watched highlights, Mercedes always worked tyres harder and RB easier.
Doesn’t bode well for Spain next week....
Please stop trolling. He was hardly crying.
Noy only was he crying and upset. He took Max's trophy

I thought it too. Even if he was complaining about the tyres, they were near the same age as Stroll's. No risk of failure.
The tyres are much harder next weekend which possibly helps Mercedes
