Could have been a 1-2 going into first turn. He didn't have to squeeze anyone he'd have been first in that corner.

What the **** was that?

There goes Vettel championship by the way.

Yikes indeed.

Before the Ricciardo fans bask in glory, 100% Raikonnen killing both Vettel, Alonso and Max' race. What an idiot...
#10
Posted 17 September 2017 - 12:09
Too bad.
#11
Posted 17 September 2017 - 12:09
Idiots. And dan lucking into it again while getting destroyed all year long...
#12
Posted 17 September 2017 - 12:09
Cant fault anyone there... if anything, Vettel shouldnt have gone for that squeeze
#13
Posted 17 September 2017 - 12:09
Vettel made a big error judgement! Now the championship is gone.
What a shame...
From the onboard, there was not much he could have done. Vettel went left still in the lead. The collision was then between Max and Kimi, which meant they could not break and damaged Vettel's rear.

Seb you stupid bastard. Could have been a 1-2 going into first turn. He didn't have to squeeze anyone he'd have been first in that corner.
Raikkönen would've still spun into him...

Jezus raikonen thanks a lot this is getting sad.

Not like he deserved it anyway.

Zero fault for Verstappen. Kimi too optimistic and Vettel choped. So it's all down on Ferrari.
The conditions were probably the biggest problem though.
#21
Posted 17 September 2017 - 12:10
Vettel didn't see Kimi and squeezed Verstappen and it all kicked off.
#22
Posted 17 September 2017 - 12:11
Vettel - Verstappen - Wall - Räikkönen.. in the order of blame.

He's been great all season.

Disagree. It was Vettel's fault. But I don't think he knew Kimi was alongside Max. Racing incident. Gutted for Max.

Just amazing... just amazing...

im not saying Vettel was to fault for that incident but clearly if anyone had more part in causing the collision of all three, it was Vettel

Start of the race. Vettel should not have assumed that no one was there.
#29
Posted 17 September 2017 - 12:13
Un be lievable!
Wtf were the Ferrari's doing, sandwiching Max like that. Nowhere to go.
This has to be a very big penalty for Raikkonen.
Another race and even possible win destroyed for Max, just when you think it can't get much worse....

Vettel, you won't be champion like this.

Kimi turned too soon, got caught in Verstappen, spun into Vettel.

It has ended in tears. I hope it rains harder because we need Hamilton not to win this one.
#36
Posted 17 September 2017 - 12:14
Vettel can crash in to cars on purpose without a serious penalty, so no chance they hit him here regardless of the merits.
#37
Posted 17 September 2017 - 12:14
Raikkonen 'too optimistic'??? Perhaps motor racing isn't the sport for you.
Racing incident. If you HAD to apportion blame, it's on Vettel.
Very low expectations for this race now. What a waste.

I guess that's a likely 1 on the satisfaction rating for the Voting championship then. Go Ricciardo now.

Kimi saw a clear gap ahead with more than a cars width...every single car in that position will go for that.

when you see the rain in singapore with a ferrari on pole you know its gone. Umbelievable.It has ended in tears. I hope it rains harder because we need Hamilton not to win this one.

Initially I called it Verstappen but it's a racing incident. That said, no sympathy for Vettel. He couldn't see Kimi but it's nice to see these bully tactics backfire.

Watch it again. It was Vettel who caused the contact not Kimi. Poor Max got squeezed into Kimi.

This never ends. I guess good on Ric for staying out of trouble?
But seriously, I don't find Max to blame for this. Such a shame this keeps happening to him while he did so well to outqualify Ric again. And again Ric is the one with the points. It's tiring.

Kimi turned too soon, got caught in Verstappen, spun into Vettel.
Actually I agree, Kimi turned too soon and clipped Max tire, but if Kimi would not have been there Max could have steered left.
Stupid chain of events really but it's just the way it is.

This. With the same drivers and the same driver at fault (Vettel squeezing).
