Good weekend. I liked it. Sad to see Bottas waiving his career goodbye, but that's the likely outcome. His penalty will be meaningless if Red Bull have grid penalties for new engines, etc, coming up later in the season, though.
Bottas has nothing to be sorry for. He races and racers in races make mistakes. Not well timed but hey, VETTEL???? Mistakes, spinning etc? Bottas has not tossed titles like Vetttel has lol!

When the top 4 cars are so close together can it be a surprise if they hit a car its one of the other top 4???? The world did not end at all. Its racing, its risk and shite happens in each race. If that is too much for RedBull then they can quit. Bottas took responsibility as a good, fair and honest racer unlike others.

How dirty was MS or Senna. Greasy dirty. This was a fun race and I could care less who was affected on a greasy wet track. Mistakes happen and its called racing.
