What I find intriguing about George Russell's disqualification is the statement attributing it to tire degradation. There were three other cars on a one-stop strategy that finished within the weight and time limits, which doesn't add up. While it's possible Russell lost some tire degradation, it's important to remember that every car must meet the same weight requirements. This means teams must add ballast to account for differences in driver weight and size. In George's case, they removed the ballast and used fuel as ballast instead, deliberately under-fueling the car. Therefore, some tire degradation can be factored in, but not entirely. Additionally, over 60% of the cars on that grid, including the other one-stop cars, were tested. Julian Palmer's commentary on this issue sheds more light on it. Mercedes needs to investigate whether this was an intentional act by multiple people or an individual within the team. This situation raises questions about how long this has been happening and whether it's the reason Hamilton left quickly after the race, skipping celebrations and going straight on holiday. He might be wondering how long this has been going on as well.😮
Toto said they pitted Ham to cover CL and LN. It’s ridiculous to say they needed to cover LN. On CL, they wouldn't have needed to cover him if LH stayed out. They wanted GR to win, and they tried to cheat by not properly draining the car during the weigh-in, but they got caught. This is Russell’s team.
@RickAnderson19 I thought for sure Toto was out of the loop but either he is playing like it was all a team decision to not appear divided or it was allowed to truly take the Win from Hamilton. No way they thought it was just to out do P5. But he also said it is what it is with having taken it from LH so perhaps they are more in it for GR now. I will say I'm interested to find out where the weight loss came from because of its not fluid/wear related then that's even more intrigue for the media to scrutinize and for conspiracies to take hold.
3.31lbs is 1.5kg My understanding they don’t weigh the car with fluids, but merc brought their car with fluids to make it heavier, so they had to weigh it twice
@federspengel1141 thanks, certainly looked like summer break may be a quiet one but nope, the last race changed that. Second half of the season should really be something from a few perspectives so I cant wait. Thanks for watching & the feedback, be sure to Subscribe!
Bro the amount of gas don't matter, what are you waffling about ? They empty the car when they weigh it. Fuel is never a factor. Tyre degradation might not be a factor either because 5 drivers completed the race with one-stop stratagy but none of them had a significant enough tyre deg that could lead to "-1.5 kg".
Actually not totally correct. All cars must be able to produce 1ltr of fuel at end of the race for testing.. If you cannot produce 1ltr of fuel you will immediately be disqualified.
but tire-degradation was the factor because other cars who did one-stop were probably not pushing as much as russell basic common sense russell was trying to run away and he was foolish to do that even if he lifted and coasted more he might still have ended up on the podium but he had to fuck up his own teammate who worked hard for the win and he got smacked in the face with reality of what he actually did pushed the car too much
last year SPA russell ruined lewis's race too in Quali he is 100% trying to mess up lewis's race however he can and mercedes are completely fine with it russell did the same in spain last year but when lewis made a small mistake in qatar the team made him apologise to russell and put up a video on social media i have never seen russell apologising to lewis in a separate video the amount of time russell fucked up lewis's race and mercedes are silent observers but as soon as lewis is about to overtake russell they come crying on radio 'give space to each other' why don't they tell this to russell? mercedes might not be actively trying to fuck up lewis but they are completely fine with russell doing it
many years ago a lewis interview had how much you sweat in it during a race and it was quite a bit of weight he was also talking about fuel loads and he said .1 and .2 a lap you gain just by the sweat you loose in a race so 1.5kg will give a speed advantage per lap. its not much but this is a long lap lets say you gain .1 per lap cause its under weight multiply that by 44 laps thats seconds at the end of a race 1 second every 10 laps 4.4 over 44 laps so thats why weight is important
Why you guys are surprised? Isn’t that way Nico become F1 champion? Lewis cooked George the whole weekend, poor guy has the do doggy things to win . Lewis need to know by now he’s leaving the team they will play against him period . Seb vettel had the same when leaving Redbull for Ferrari
Alonso? Also did a 1 stop...... The media trying to hype up the drive & GR And Mercedes not telling LH that GR was on a 1 stop - that's what gets me. LH would have changed driving style/strategy if he had known this.
@SometimesYouJustGottaSayIt he for sure would have. He would have gone 1 stop too, or even extracted more right away from the tires and ensured he made the gap to Russell come down too.
Lewis had a great start and by lap 3 he was in the lead which in my opinion shows pace. With Lewis leaving the team Mercedes are trying their hardest to help Russell but it is not working out to well. With Lewis out qualifying Russell they had to change their strategy in order to help Russell.
All I know is Christian Horner would've already had plenty to say about Toto and Merc if he himself were not embroiled in a litany of scandals and issues over in the Redbull camp 🤣
But Toto I really don’t understand you.. a 8 time champion brought you so much success in the sport an you treat him like that.. bro mr Toto give the man his last hurray George got enuff time to be number 1 stop rushing an take care of Lewis man
@mirvgeorge3290 I wonder if we will find out more over the break..did he really know or just pretending to have control of the ship while really being surprised by what occured. He has to know it's not good for a large amount of their fan base to be seen give George the ability to win. Different if Hamilton burnt up his Perrelis and George was a master with his. But that wasn't close to the case. There is surely more to come on this, and I'm sure a few other Teams will chime in to stir the pot a bit too.
@@SKLIFEstyle for sure. The only thing Toto looked pretty suprise he didn’t have a single smile on his face.But the fans will get to the bottom off it I’m sure…
so russell tried to smack lewis last year at SPA Quali which messed up lewis's race last year and he's done it again but somehow there is no propaganda lol
I noted a important detail, remember in Hungary when Russell can't do a good time in Q1, and he gets eliminated? Because his car was fuel empty? And he can't do another lap... In the meantime, Hamilton performed the best time in that Q1, under rain... So it seems that ALWAYS Russell's car is under in fuel than Hamilton's car, so Russell is lighter...That's why Russell is 0.2 seconds faster than Hamilton in Qualy, however, when the race start, and mainly if raining, Lewis is better, again and again. No matter what Mercedes and Toto tried to do to sabotage Hamilton, his better driver quality always overperform Russell.
THIS IS WHAT NO ONE HAS MENTIONED. Is everyone's memories that short. George had a fuel issue in Hungarian Quali, but this is not being widely reported. Merc has been doing something fishy all season long!
It was an awesome drive because Russell took those tyres 34 laps (I think). Every computer sim, every engineer would tell you at the end he would be losing a second a lap. It was an awesome drive regardless of 1.5Kg. The man is consistent, quick and reserved, the future will show you the intelligence of Russell. He will never beat Lewis' records, nobody will in our lifetimes, but he will show you how to drive smart, not tyre shredding aggressive.
LH won regardless they naughty game
So true my brother, really sly from Russel and his side of the garage.
It's funny how Mercedes try over and over put Russell ahead of Hamilton, and Lewis just kicks their butts.

They kick a own goal.

My understanding they don’t weigh the car with fluids, but merc brought their car with fluids to make it heavier, so they had to weigh it twice
exactly correct so they knew it was under weight
And with extra fuel Russell's car weight was somehow right on the nose. Coincidences happen but uhhh...
😂
The team took Lewis in on purpose,didnt you see Totos face when it finished,he looked so guilty😊😊😊
Thank you, and you are so correct..!

How can they pit him so his teammate gets an advantage, but they decided to kick Ham in the butt,they wanted to make a hamburger out of him.
Real talk hit the nail on the head
remember didn't attempt to take photos didn't empty all fuel maybe knew what was coming I believe they did
Bro the amount of gas don't matter, what are you waffling about ?

@@TheNorville2 that’s irrelevant
One liter of fuel either becomes part of the car or is removed from the car
What difference does it make
They always hype it bro
But the reason??????
To kill Lewis’s legacy
That’s the game being played
🧐💯🧐🫡
They keep trying to mess with Lewis stuff is BS
last year SPA russell ruined lewis's race too in Quali he is 100% trying to mess up lewis's race however he can and mercedes are completely fine with it russell did the same in spain last year but when lewis made a small mistake in qatar the team made him apologise to russell and put up a video on social media i have never seen russell apologising to lewis in a separate video the amount of time russell fucked up lewis's race and mercedes are silent observers but as soon as lewis is about to overtake russell they come crying on radio 'give space to each other' why don't they tell this to russell? mercedes might not be actively trying to fuck up lewis but they are completely fine with russell doing it

Seb vettel had the same when leaving Redbull for Ferrari
Salute!
Alonso?
Also did a 1 stop......
The media trying to hype up the drive & GR
And Mercedes not telling LH that GR was on a 1 stop - that's what gets me.

With Lewis out qualifying Russell they had to change their strategy in order to help Russell.
And if rain comes, Hamilton gives Russell a masterclass.....
I am so happy the Merc lost 18 points. It's a classic karma. It was obvious they prefer George to win the race.
@@aamin-r6h Yeah, that could have made a decent dent in the gap to Ferrari.
All I know is Christian Horner would've already had plenty to say about Toto and Merc if he himself were not embroiled in a litany of scandals and issues over in the Redbull camp 🤣

Covering up the rest of the grid or frontrunners not LINEUP.
It is also 2-stop not double pit.
It was an awesome drive because Russell took those tyres 34 laps (I think). Every computer sim, every engineer would tell you at the end he would be losing a second a lap.
