    Oh well.
    They didn’t want him to be undercut. Had he pitted later he would’ve ended up behind people whom would have already pitted plus the 10 second penalty. He got 3rd which is better than 4th or after.

    I just dont understand why you pit running the fastest times on the track. He was 2seconds infront of bottas before pits and when it cycled around, bottas had a 14-15second lead on hamilton.
    You'd think with Hamilton on those new tires he would have been able to close the gap up before Bottas pitted. Clean air is just that good I suppose.

    I believe when you get a stop and go penalty you have to do it within 2-3 laps of when you’re told of it. That’s why Hamilton was complaining why he couldn’t just get 10 seconds added on to his race because then he could stay and in the lead and create a huge gap from whoever is in 2nd place and then get 10 seconds added on and still win.

    I believe the rule is, if you get a time penalty, you have to serve that time penalty the next time you pit. I don't think there is a rule on when you have to serve it. If you don't end up pitting, it is added onto your race time.
    F1 has so many rules though its hard to keep them straight.

    This is a good watch. Pretty entertaining.
    Bottas almost has a personality!
