No, I'm pretty sure it's James Vowles, team strategist who gives the orders. James Allison is the technical director, who got champagne sprayed on him. Different people.
Bro it feels even worse than rubens barichello…atleast most of the time barichello was happy to give michael schumacher the win…bottas feels so heartbroken
Clearly one of the best overtakes in F1's history, up there with Rubens when he overtook Michael in that breathtaking last lap in Austria 2002! (before anyone angrily replies, I'm an avid Ferrari fan so no shade thrown towards the team, I just really despise team orders in general).
I think it's in his contract, I wouldn't be surprised if they agreed to that before signing him after what happened with rosberg. He knows if he refuses he would be out of that seat.
@@userr_742 yeah but vettel had and bottas helped Hamilton a lot in order for Hamilton to win. Same thing could happen this year if Mercedes and verstappen are threating Hamilton
I'm not. Since Mercedes hired him, he knew that this would be the "modus operandi". And he always accepted. Today, he could just said: "no, I won't". But, instead, he played again as the wingman. He gets what he deserves.
Henry whatzal ‘not fair’ is taking it a bit far, they’re just trying to secure the championship for Mercedes as well as Lewis. If Valtteri had the points Lewis has im sure they would let him go first. Sometimes you just have to be a good teammate and thats all.
The points for the WCC would've been 43 no matter which driver was first and the 7 point difference was absolutely insignificant given a 40-point lead for Lewis in the WDC. It was a dick move by Toto.
Kinda like people already pointed out, yeah it sucks that they didnt let Valtteri finish first, but its only for the best. Valtteri doesnt gain much by finishing 1st however those 7 points for finishing first could make a huge difference for Lewis. So it’s only logical.
What means logical by you? He would've already have a 43 points lead, the 7 points would not have made any difference. For sure, it's a taste of their own medicine for Ferrari but still these things should not happen nowadays!
Oh, right like Max. So they can crash into each other like Max and Ricciardo did in Baku and throw away both their chances? All teams can do it, so it's not unfair.
Pelzeri This is straight up the worst race of the year. Not only because of Bottas’ team order but also Force India’s. Even if Lewis lets him thru at the end it is still a BS Race and it overshadows the Hamilton Vettel battle and Verstappen’s mega charge from 19th

Leclerc and Verstappen, two drivers of the day. Sauber lapping Williams, McLaren and Renault, didn't think it would happen in 2018. And Max getting by everyone like they wouldn't even be drivers but some extra chicanes, brilliant!
Jerry Yawning Verstappen definatly had the advantage of starting a few years earlier (and not getting kicked out of RedBull) compared to the drivers starting in 2017 and 2018, he and Ricciardo probably will win a championship. I'm hoping for Huelkenberg too.

doesnt stand a chance ? u dont say ! if the team order him for the 6-th time this year to let hamilton in first position its normal that he dont have chances ! fck team order !
Toto you screwed up! A few points are not worth this humiliation of the racers. Hamilton was not happy with such a victory, and Bottas was completely crushed. With such an attitude will come a point when the ordes from the boxes will be ignored as in the days of Rosberg.
I'm a Hamilton fan and I don't like it, either. I was almost hoping that Lewis would go against the team at the end of the race to give Bottas P1. But on the other hand, it's ruthless decisions like this that gave Schumacher his 7 championships.
Ironically, team orders came out of fear of another Lewis-Rosberg rivalry. Also ironically, Lewis was the one who ignored team orders when Rosberg was still his teammate.
Because Hamilton is in the lead rn and of he gets 1st instead of 2nd it will extend his lead against vettel. Mercedes doesn't give a fuck about bottas basically
Because there's a WDC to win which he's not in...simple really. One DNF for Lewis & the title bid turns on it's head...Those 7 extra points could very well be the difference come November.
doesn't matter if they have the green light to race, these cars can't follow each other without losing significant performance. After the 3-4 laps the running order won't change much
The gap would have been less if vettel had stayed ahead of Hamilton🤔 after the pits. But when it comes to Hamilton its easier to leave the part were he overtook his rival and only talk about his team mate key word TEAMmate helping him increase pts gap
fuck the contract , we need alpha males in F1 , not these sissy drivers and sissy rules , they ruin the sport . Being scared of getting fired , don't make me laugh . I was never scared of being fired , and they did fire me , and guess what , i am running my own business now . You sissy fools !
I just hate the mentality of people taking orders just like that , without any thinking for themselves . This is just a race , but peope like that are everywhere in society . When people just take orders because they were ordered , you are a Zombie . NEVER stop thinking for yourself , do the right thing . The consequences on the short term may be bad , but in the long run you WIN .
Well done ruining races, no one was happy - team, drivers, viewers. How much of a lead does Hamilton need to be comfortable in the championship ? The man clearly deserved it, can't merc just give that one win to him? Disappointed. - coming from a Hamilton fan.
To be comfortable in the championship, Lewis needs more than 125 points difference because anything can happen and they need to secure the championship.
ya Bottas was faster all weekend and had better pace so he is the real winner Doesn’t matter who crosses the line first or not it’s about who is better and who actually deserves the win
@@saketsahu8858, I think it's you who doesn't understand... I was commenting on the guy's sarcastic post joking about Hamilton overtaking Bottas without mentioning Hamilton's brilliant actual overtake of Vettel... Try to keep up!
i remember hamilton handing position back to bottas in hungary. i dont think we can compare anything from the rosberg days as mercedes where never really a team back then.
Hamilton diddnt move over because he was trying to win the championship at the last race of the season. I don't think any driver would help their rival in a championship deciding race would you?
i know lewis is better driver than bottas. but how can he take win away from bottas when he is leading by 40 points in championship . bottas face at the end was just sad , felt really bad from him . yeah it was team orders but let the man win a race he really had a tough season. i am now relly getting annoyed whenever i see toto wolffs face .
Nah.... What is the point that racing drivers stop competing with each other. It's so rude to the audience because they spent money on the ticket, and can't even watch the magnificent driving skill of the top drivers.
They need to do some serious work on the qualifying system as well. Both Renaults stayed in the garage during Q2 just to get an advantage. *Not* racing should NEVER get you an advantage!!!
@@pondao3980 Come on dude really? You agree with what Mercedes did today? They took the win from Valterri and gave it to Lewis for 7 points!? Valteri's dignity is worth 7 points to them!?
Well said. I dont know whats the point of making him best driver of the race.... everyone of the Big three would go around everyone like this .... its no competition and no one would put up a fight if u know ure the only one really loosing anyway....
The only way vettel could have really won the title would be to win every race, it's a disgrace by Mercedes and bottas doesn't seem happy despite being a professional I think this is the straw that broke the camels back
pretty sure Mercedes told their drivers not to battle in Germany, giving Hamilton an easier win near the end. But yeah these two top teams definitely need to let both their drivers have a chance. ruclips.net/video/gp-i8vtgzJE/видео.htmlm57s
3:18 I love how Verstappen makes sure everyone remembers he's a complete beast in this race by posting the fastest lap time when everyone is focusing on Vettel
@@Lamster66 id think u understand the work leclerc has done....sauber is such a underpowered team..and for them to do this well when their one of the most underpowered team..its a remarkable aspect...if leclerc raced like this in a ferrari he can win titles and also be one of the best in F1 history
I am a Hamilton fan and tbh I was really hoping to see the two Mercedes battle for the win but it is absolutely shocking to see Bottas let Hamilton pass like the two Mercs where close all race and Lewis should have been able to pass Bottas on track which could have happened but cource Mercedes spoiling racing for us as usual
Lewis himself said that he wouldn't have been able to pass bottas. The pace differential between 2 cars needs to be more than 1 second. Good luck passing a person in the same car as you. Honestly some people need to pay attention to the sport
What is the point of risking collidingwith your own teammate?! You see what happens to force india drivers. Seriously, i would suggest you stop watching the sport because you clearly dont get teamwork, teammate.
They probably wanted 2 cars finishing the race unlike a force india battling it out and no cars finishing the race. Pritty bold move imo. I guess if im making that kind of money, team orders would be easy.
Seppe Tank stop watching F1. You clearly do not understand the ethics of the sport and you will be disappointed more often when Ham retires who hates to win this way. If it was schumi, vettel, alonso, rosberg they would lap it up classlessly.
Look at this hypocrite. The hundreds of Ferrari team orders over 50 years haven't stopped you from watching it. It makes me wonder how your brains work
Are you stupid. How many times has Kimi been ordered to let Vettel through? Exponentially more times than Bottas with Hamilton. And Mercedes have employees to pay. They're not just gonna stop trying to let the other teams have a chance.
"lewis never asked for the team orders" because he don't need to ask, he knows that his team will do this anyway, or we are innocent and don't see why mercedes do this if hamilton doesn't aproves?
Bottas is a brilliant driver. But his position at Mercedes is to secure points. While for Hamilton is to win the championship. Since Bottas is only chasing kimi and Hamilton wants to come in first it was a Good move and Bottas is a total boss for letting Hamilton through. I hope Hamilton understands what kind of a player he has pushing him through on the wins
I came here after today's ferrari one-two win at singapore I'm sure next week-end things will be different for the mercedes in the russian GP simply because ferrari are in the right path.
It's great that Ferrari making progress and great to see other drivers on podium than 1-2 for Merc, but I was expecting that Red Bull will be fighting with Merc, btw I hope there will be some great battles in Sochi
I know what you mean but there will be less cars, and if one crashed, there will be another car to support otherwise you will stop watching because ypur team is out.
perez again said Im faster then ocon XD ım gonna die every time when ocon is in front of perez perez says ım faster hes definitely not a team player hes selfish
Hamilton had already a huge points difference from Vettel,so there should be a "moral" limit about team orders,what we have seen today is where we crossed that limit,not a good day for the sport,i really feels for Bottas,he deserved to win this race,he deserve more respect from his team.
Nicola Spe you watch the same race or what? Hamilton was only 1 sec behind and gaining and bottas losing time to verstappen, with vettel gaining on ham behind bottas train! Why should merecedes let them race when there is a risk they could collide with eachother alas force india every race. This sport aint for you. Stop watchin, there will be more team orders once hamilton retires.
@@Gigidag77 . Not at all. He couldn't take the heat from Lewis. A little pressure from Lewis and he'd crumbles. He is much better than Bottas, but weak minded as well. 2015 Austin race check it out. And many more.
It seems that every time Bottas has a chance of winning this year, he seems to fall victim to bad luck or team orders, who doesn't feel sorry for Valtteri this season?
Yes I do - to a degree. He was very unlucky today and in Baku, but generally this season Hamilton has simply outpaced and outraced him. How many times other than today has he fallen victim to team orders - I bet it's far less often than say, Schumacher and Barrichello? Mercedes have generally been pretty spare with team orders over the years compared to Ferrari, they certainly didn't apply much during the Hamilton v Rosberg years. But yes, I do feel sorry for Bottas a bit this season :)
"Ferrari did it too in the past"... so the fact that Ferrari had a shameful behaviour back in the days means Mercedes' one is accetable from an entertainment standpoint?
@@MadmanGoneMad2012 tbf i'm not even that mad at the team order to let hamilton pass because it was a smart decision to get a 1-2 I'm mad they didn't switch positions at the end
No, nobody fought against the red bull so it's no wonder he could overtake every car slower than the red bull, it's the same when Hamilton had to start from somewhere in midfield, the other cars don't want to ruin their tires and simply let him overtake
Thank god someone said that. Magnussen is by far the most dangerous driver on the grid, and the mid-field doesn't let him pass just because he is dangerous.
Oh man I feel so bad for Bottas. As Verstappen follower, I voted for Bottas as driver of the day. He could use a cheer up after this shocker. Especially when he asked if he could have his position back in the end. Gutwrenching :/ Not the very fastest but just the most down to earth solid driver on the grid. He raced all year for hamilton, and now he was fairly the quickest. Moreover strange tactical decision just when he was in DRS of Verstappen.
Google User Well he had a decent drive and wouldve won the race. I also didnt vote because of an insane drive but just try to support his weekends performance.
no one never did this, no one... this wasn't just an ordinary position swap because bottas was in the lead and was faster than hamilton with a 2 second gap no one has ever asked the faster driver to let the slower driver, what is wrong with people, go and tell bottas well ferrari did that to before
Bottas has THREE career race wins in F1 so far, none of them coming this year. At least let the guy race for his fourth especially after securing pole position.
dude don't watch, just watch starts and highlights like I do, if you want real motorsport, follow WEC, IMSA and BES/BSS where real men's racing is really where its at.
towlie911 They can and do see blisters on tires going that fast. But these tires had barely any blister at all. If you listen to the radio, Lewis simply asked the pit for the position, and they ordered him to give it up. Almost as if there's something in the contract saying they have to....
im disappointed with BOT tbh. If he had just been quick enough, the him and HAM would have just pulled away from VET so no need for team orders. He just always seems to lack race pace like RAI.
@@Frenzinh0 F1 doesn't qualify as a sport because of this fixing they allow the teams to do. It's been like this and it's going to stay this way. I remember Rubens sacrifices his dreams and probably career for so called champion M. Schumacher. These guys can't be true champions. Infact it happens in every race just that they manage to hide it from public eyes. But if you watch closely team orders run during qualifiers with the second driver doing all the experiments and some how first driver picks up one thousand of a second advantage. It's not a sport, they have been fooling us since ages. It's our fault as fans who eat this shit every race weekend. Stop following formula 1. Let Bottas and Kimi win their races moreover let's not call Hamilton and Vettel as champions.
LamboWalker: In 2002 austria when schumacher won in the barichello was on the top spot on the podium and schumacher was on second spot on the podium schumacher told to barichello to go on the top spot on the podium this proves how schumacher was ( that time) charismatical and great guy. In 2010 alonso's win in germany was a disgrace but that year later in the 2010 season alonso lost the championship to vettel. And now is 2018 russia but this time.... is the mercedes team ordes they asked bottas to let hamilton through.
If it happens, as in the past, we are able to rear another ways to do this. Do you remember "Alonso is faster than you"? Team orders was not acceptable that time.
Incredible drive from Max and Charles today. Bottas didn't do anything wrong today, but was forced listen to team orders. The race result was technically decided once Bottas let Hamilton by. I admit I fell asleep once Verstappen pitted. I woke up at the chequered flag, but I don't think I missed much.
I know right? I watched the race until everyone but the redbulls had pitted, then i skipped 20 mins and positions were the same, skipped another 6 laps and everything was the same, so skipped until the end last lap, and everything was the same so i didnt miss anything and saved a whole hour of my time :D
@@harrisonduncan8367 mate, I know team orders have always been there but I was happy that ferrari are hesitating to put team orders now. They are even getting charles next year who I doubt will play the game like kimi. But mercedes took it to another level yesterday. Team orders were completely unnecessary in that race.
But do we really know that Hemal?? Lewis probably had an incline that team orders would come into it and if told "Lewis, if you want to win you have to beat him on the track" What would of happened then, we will never know. You see what happened when he come out the pits behind vetal, breezed past him. Then it would of come down to letting the cars race and then what happens if they touch like the red bulls in Aza, take each other out and vetal goes on to win, a 40 point lead would be a 15. Tbh, end of the day an i am with most people, botas move over to let lewis take the lead and on the last lap lewis hand it back, thats how it should of gone down.
@Gary Garratt Perez and Ocon was a complete different thing. Ocon was asked to let Perez overtake him to close the gap and possibly overtake KMag. If Perez wasn't able to do so, then they would swap back (which actually happened because Perez made no progress on that). I don't see any bad stuff there. The faster teammate overtakes the slower to maybe find a way to work together as a duo and in that situation, if it works, the one who made it possible should stay at front. In Bottas vs Hamilton was purely because Hamilton was moaning on the radio about a negligent blister, that I don't think it was that much of a big deal, and Mercedes just decided to make both swap positions. What if it was Bottas getting real blisters because of Hamilton? Would he move aside to let Bottas overtake? If the blisters were such a big thing I think the only ending possible would be giving Bottas the win because he let Hamilton pass him to control the tyres' health. In the end, Hamilton only won because of Bottas. 50 points > 43 points? Yes. Does anyone think Hamilton would lose 43 points in this last few races, seeing how dominant the Mercedes is looking on either reliability and overall performance? I don't think so. But I would love to see if Ferrari manages to make up those points and Vettel ending up beeing the champion, just to see how Toto and James and even Bottas would react. Specially Bottas that probably would have been mugged a certain win that was needed to Lewis win the championship and would have ended up not beeing enough for Lewis. I would laugh so hard, but I also know there is no chance for that to happen.
Its over. Mercedes pace overtook Ferraris since Singapore by far ... and using hardcore teamorder ... Bottas supports Hamilton in each race since 2017 ... Kimi didnt even in Monza 2018.
how in the fuck would ve rai helped vet? rai could ve only let him at the beginning pass but that would be stupid at least 2 more cars would ve overtaken him and after the 1st lap they didnt meet again
Bottas will also wash Hamiltons car at the end of the race.
That is lesson for bottas from Luis... hahahaha
should be the other way around dude..
While he's doing that, Vettel can wipe his ass.

Because there's a WDC to win which he's not in...simple really. One DNF for Lewis & the title bid turns on it's head...Those 7 extra points could very well be the difference come November.
It’s still would be 43 points
Isn’t Hamilton already just comfortable now why so desperate Mercedes?
There are now 50 points between Hamilton and Vettel... please stop team orders and let all drivers race/fight till the end of season!
lol, but you praise him last year when he bring back podium place, but win, never
If you think about it we pay to watch racing but only see real racing in the first 6-10 races
doesn't matter if they have the green light to race, these cars can't follow each other without losing significant performance. After the 3-4 laps the running order won't change much
List:
Schumi Austria 2002
Vettel Germany 2018
Hamilton Russia 2018
The gap would have been less if vettel had stayed ahead of Hamilton🤔 after the pits. But when it comes to Hamilton its easier to leave the part were he overtook his rival and only talk about his team mate key word TEAMmate helping him increase pts gap
Bottas should have yelled , "NOOO" , take the win home and tell the team he will talk about it afterwards !!
BeingJohnMalkowitz That’s basically what Verstappen would do
fuck the contract , we need alpha males in F1 , not these sissy drivers and sissy rules , they ruin the sport . Being scared of getting fired , don't make me laugh . I was never scared of being fired , and they did fire me , and guess what , i am running my own business now . You sissy fools !
You are the pussy , cos you , like Bottas , do not have the balls to take what is yours . You said it yourself 'Team orders ' bwahaha . Dumb fuck
That seems easy but I don't think he wants to loose his seat in F1
I just hate the mentality of people taking orders just like that , without any thinking for themselves . This is just a race , but peope like that are everywhere in society . When people just take orders because they were ordered , you are a Zombie . NEVER stop thinking for yourself , do the right thing . The consequences on the short term may be bad , but in the long run you WIN .
Bottas should honestly start ignoring team orders. He deserves to race.
lacrosse782 considering it was unnecessary makes it worse
Austria 2002, anyone?
Aslamnur Fikri why unneccesery?
@@JHFMW Because Hamilton already had a sizeable championship lead. As did Schumacher in 2002 at Austria.
Ben Ward these 7 point can make a big difference! Better safe then sorry i guess! I still wanted Bot to win tough
Well done ruining races, no one was happy - team, drivers, viewers. How much of a lead does Hamilton need to be comfortable in the championship ? The man clearly deserved it, can't merc just give that one win to him? Disappointed. - coming from a Hamilton fan.
To be comfortable in the championship, Lewis needs more than 125 points difference because anything can happen and they need to secure the championship.
Yeah Lewis *really desperately needs* those 7 *extra* points in the championship, he's about to lose his 50+ point lead ...
Would you rather have a 50 point lead or a 43 point lead?
Yeah I like them both but if Merc were actually playing the team game then what happened in Budapest last year would've happened today
Lewis fan here too. Was absolutely disappointed. Bottas definitely deserved this win.
Never seen such a unhappy podium
maybe it's the first race you watched. There were many unhappy podiums throughout the history. Team orders, deaths etc.
Schumacher and Hakkinen celebrated gleefully at the 1994 San Marino podium even though two drivers died during that weekend.

Yep

Verstappen the real winner, Bottas is just a grid filler
Bottas faster? LOL
@ya no shit.if it weren't for you,i would of never known
ya Bottas was faster all weekend and had better pace so he is the real winner
Doesn’t matter who crosses the line first or not it’s about who is better and who actually deserves the win
They need to ban hamilton for 2 races or so and let valteri win them all
This could be the worst race of the season because of the team orders.
absolutely true!
Oh, come on. Stop exaggerating. The race actually had good battles and moments.
LOL, even with team orders, this race was FAR more bearable than last year's. That was an absolutely piss poor race
Brilliant overtake from Lewis against Valteri. Simply amazing, after a long fight he finally won the hard fought fight.....

I remember Hamilton not moving aside for Rosberg in the last race of 2016. Even after team order.
i remember hamilton handing position back to bottas in hungary. i dont think we can compare anything from the rosberg days as mercedes where never really a team back then.
Hamilton diddnt move over because he was trying to win the championship at the last race of the season. I don't think any driver would help their rival in a championship deciding race would you?
thats cuz rosberg is an asshole.......LOL
2016 Mercedes f1 team was a team that allowed their racers to race freely. Now, it is just team Hamilton.
Grand PaPa Hamilton is the biggest arrogant asshole together with vershitappen in the field so that argument doesn’t hold up
Leclerc was the only non-top 3 team driver to finish on the lead lap, this boy is special!
Could be the 'dark horse' next season...
Cannot wait to see what will he do with Ferrari, next season.
He hasn't showed anything special tbh, drive was good
i know lewis is better driver than bottas. but how can he take win away from bottas when he is leading by 40 points in championship . bottas face at the end was just sad , felt really bad from him . yeah it was team orders but let the man win a race he really had a tough season. i am now relly getting annoyed whenever i see toto wolffs face .
I'm sure Toto is deeply upset
Don't blame Lewis, it wasn't his decision, he didn't want that.
they will continue this until lewis gets his title and then they dont care who wins probably
Lewis would’ve been much more nicer if he let Bottas through on the last lap ya know…
So heartbroken when he asked if he was going to get the place back 💔
Nah.... What is the point that racing drivers stop competing with each other. It's so rude to the audience because they spent money on the ticket, and can't even watch the magnificent driving skill of the top drivers.
You understand motorsport! Finally I'm not the only one!
oh fuck off you saw the driving skill laps before what else did you expect the two Mercedes to fight each other
They need to do some serious work on the qualifying system as well. Both Renaults stayed in the garage during Q2 just to get an advantage. *Not* racing should NEVER get you an advantage!!!

@@pondao3980 Come on dude really? You agree with what Mercedes did today?
They took the win from Valterri and gave it to Lewis for 7 points!? Valteri's dignity is worth 7 points to them!?
I really want to see the on board view of Max from the first 5 rounds or so!
I think it is not as interesting as you think it is, because everyone let him overtake so they don't ruin their tires in a fight they will never win
Rounds? this aint boxing :/
@@Glenn7719
German word for "lap" is "Runde".
"Runde" translated means "round" in the most used cases.
Well said. I dont know whats the point of making him best driver of the race.... everyone of the Big three would go around everyone like this .... its no competition and no one would put up a fight if u know ure the only one really loosing anyway....
yeah sadly he had damage...
Woaw, Mercedes..... really? Lewis has 40 point leads before this race? and you don't give Bottas this win?
The only way vettel could have really won the title would be to win every race, it's a disgrace by Mercedes and bottas doesn't seem happy despite being a professional I think this is the straw that broke the camels back
40 points really isn't that much. One DNF and it's 15.

ElementX • finally someone pointed out how much he stepped up to the plate when everyone is doubting him
People hated Rosberg but in times like this, I wish he was still racing for Mercedes.
Mercedes are lucky that he retired
yup man .. Rosberg was a great racing driver ..
For sure he wouldn't let Lewis take over him without fighting. Miss rosberg!
Rosberg belonged to royal F1 family. Bottas gotta look out for his career by following team orders!
What you on about? Rosberg would be exactly like bottas because rosberg had no challenge from ferrari. Complete idiot you know nothing about f1
Disgraceful play from the Mercedes team today. On the other hand fantastic drive from Leclerc
and Verstappen
uhhh...if ferrari did this you wouldn't be saying that!!!..in fact ferrari have a history of team orders!!!
pretty sure Mercedes told their drivers not to battle in Germany, giving Hamilton an easier win near the end. But yeah these two top teams definitely need to let both their drivers have a chance.

@Sami bayeh and what about Austria this year? Ferrari didnt do that as ridicolous as mercedes this year not even close
3:18 I love how Verstappen makes sure everyone remembers he's a complete beast in this race by posting the fastest lap time when everyone is focusing on Vettel

U said 11 months ago. We have a star today and that's Charles leclerc. Be ready for Ferrari 4trix win
I am a Hamilton fan and tbh I was really hoping to see the two Mercedes battle for the win but it is absolutely shocking to see Bottas let Hamilton pass like the two Mercs where close all race and Lewis should have been able to pass Bottas on track which could have happened but cource Mercedes spoiling racing for us as usual
Lewis himself said that he wouldn't have been able to pass bottas. The pace differential between 2 cars needs to be more than 1 second.
Good luck passing a person in the same car as you.
Honestly some people need to pay attention to the sport
What is the point of risking collidingwith your own teammate?! You see what happens to force india drivers. Seriously, i would suggest you stop watching the sport because you clearly dont get teamwork, teammate.
he won the 2008 title with no help from Kovalainen. Won 2014, 2015 titles without the help of Rosberg. what are you talking about?
They probably wanted 2 cars finishing the race unlike a force india battling it out and no cars finishing the race. Pritty bold move imo. I guess if im making that kind of money, team orders would be easy.
Seppe Tank stop watching F1. You clearly do not understand the ethics of the sport and you will be disappointed more often when Ham retires who hates to win this way. If it was schumi, vettel, alonso, rosberg they would lap it up classlessly.
“Why’d I ever stop watching F1?”
“....Oh.”
Lol too bad
Look at this hypocrite. The hundreds of Ferrari team orders over 50 years haven't stopped you from watching it. It makes me wonder how your brains work
Mercedes killed F1
@@Squilliam-Fancyson not quite but they are killing it
Are you stupid. How many times has Kimi been ordered to let Vettel through? Exponentially more times than Bottas with Hamilton. And Mercedes have employees to pay. They're not just gonna stop trying to let the other teams have a chance.
Bottas deserves better than this from his "team" ..., that was a slap in the face by Toto and glamour-boy hamilton ...
ThechosenOne I know your right
@TheChosenOne then he could've let him by again like a real man.
exactly
"lewis never asked for the team orders" because he don't need to ask, he knows that his team will do this anyway, or we are innocent and don't see why mercedes do this if hamilton doesn't aproves?
Never asked for the team order yeah allright but I can assure you damn well that he was happy about it deep inside him, just didn't show it publicly.

@@aks1002no it wasn’t. Ferrari already lost over 50 points from their terrible strategies alone
What a drive by Max Verstappen
I was impressed by both, the best part of the race was watching Max pass the whole grid. That being said I cant wait to watch Leclerc next year!
Ronak Tripathi Yeah, pretty "standard". He JUST passed the whole grid and got 25 seconds ahead of his teammate. "Normal"..
Did what he should have. Had a much better car than all the others.
Make that 49 seconds ahead of his teammate
Ronak Tripathi yes we see that by Ricciardo he was only 58 sec behind Max
I cant even imagine how he feels... and how do you handle this as a driver...
A couple of millions a year and driving the fastest car on the planet for a living will help no doubt...
100% agree
ask kimi
Bottas is a brilliant driver. But his position at Mercedes is to secure points. While for Hamilton is to win the championship. Since Bottas is only chasing kimi and Hamilton wants to come in first it was a Good move and Bottas is a total boss for letting Hamilton through. I hope Hamilton understands what kind of a player he has pushing him through on the wins

It seems that every time Bottas has a chance of winning this year, he seems to fall victim to bad luck or team orders, who doesn't feel sorry for Valtteri this season?
Yes I do - to a degree. He was very unlucky today and in Baku, but generally this season Hamilton has simply outpaced and outraced him. How many times other than today has he fallen victim to team orders - I bet it's far less often than say, Schumacher and Barrichello? Mercedes have generally been pretty spare with team orders over the years compared to Ferrari, they certainly didn't apply much during the Hamilton v Rosberg years. But yes, I do feel sorry for Bottas a bit this season :)

1:11 wow that Checho on Redbull Prediction
😂
Can we take a moment to appreciate verstappen's drive?
No, nobody fought against the red bull so it's no wonder he could overtake every car slower than the red bull, it's the same when Hamilton had to start from somewhere in midfield, the other cars don't want to ruin their tires and simply let him overtake
There was only 13 laps left I feel like he could have just won on the softs tyres or defiantly finish on the podium
Everyone is shit scared of being crashed into by Verstappen. That's why they let him through. Very dangerous overrated driver if you ask me.
Thank god someone said that. Magnussen is by far the most dangerous driver on the grid, and the mid-field doesn't let him pass just because he is dangerous.

Roses are red
Violets are blue
Valterri it's James,
Let Hamilton through.
Oh man I feel so bad for Bottas. As Verstappen follower, I voted for Bottas as driver of the day. He could use a cheer up after this shocker. Especially when he asked if he could have his position back in the end. Gutwrenching :/
Not the very fastest but just the most down to earth solid driver on the grid. He raced all year for hamilton, and now he was fairly the quickest. Moreover strange tactical decision just when he was in DRS of Verstappen.
I also feel bad for Valtteri.
Yeah.. It sucks for him and all that. But to be fair, being poor and sad doesn't make you the Driver of the day.
Google User Well he had a decent drive and wouldve won the race. I also didnt vote because of an insane drive but just try to support his weekends performance.

After Baku, Mercedes can't give Bottas a win because of a blister on LH44'S tires?? So sad to see
And this was a magic blister considering the fastest laps put in at the and of the race.. lol
Not only that, they also denied when Bottas basically asked if was he was going to have that position back, because they could've easily done that.
That’s obviously a lame excuse, no way they can see a blister on the tire with the car going 100mph
towlie911
They can and do see blisters on tires going that fast. But these tires had barely any blister at all. If you listen to the radio, Lewis simply asked the pit for the position, and they ordered him to give it up. Almost as if there's something in the contract saying they have to....
Luice Halmitton don't deserve any of this. Just a noobish gay with right team and teammate. F1 is just gay "sport" nowdays.
Such a shame for Bottas, he would've won at Austria, then Baku, now Sochi. He deserves so much more this year, I feel so sorry for him.
don't forget monza. a miracle that he even got on podium
Nothing awkward in the mind of British commentators when Lewis has done it but they still talk about Ferrari's team order between Schumi and Rubens.
Wingman of the year goes to:- Bottas
NAAH!! KIMI HAS AT LEAST 3 OF THEESE TROPHIES!
Yes. That's why he gets to stay in F1 while Ocon rots away driving DTM or some other series that nobody cares about next season.
im disappointed with BOT tbh. If he had just been quick enough, the him and HAM would have just pulled away from VET so no need for team orders. He just always seems to lack race pace like RAI.
@@Frenzinh0 F1 doesn't qualify as a sport because of this fixing they allow the teams to do. It's been like this and it's going to stay this way. I remember Rubens sacrifices his dreams and probably career for so called champion M. Schumacher. These guys can't be true champions. Infact it happens in every race just that they manage to hide it from public eyes. But if you watch closely team orders run during qualifiers with the second driver doing all the experiments and some how first driver picks up one thousand of a second advantage. It's not a sport, they have been fooling us since ages. It's our fault as fans who eat this shit every race weekend. Stop following formula 1.

@@dan_4288 They tried that you nonce, it clearly didn't work
It was totally Valtery bottas victory. Feel so bad for the guy. Verstappan was absolutely brilliant
One of the best races of 2018!
Incredible drive from Max and Charles today. Bottas didn't do anything wrong today, but was forced listen to team orders. The race result was technically decided once Bottas let Hamilton by.
I admit I fell asleep once Verstappen pitted. I woke up at the chequered flag, but I don't think I missed much.
I know right? I watched the race until everyone but the redbulls had pitted, then i skipped 20 mins and positions were the same, skipped another 6 laps and everything was the same, so skipped until the end last lap, and everything was the same so i didnt miss anything and saved a whole hour of my time :D
This is not racing!!!! Racing is about the fastest person on the day winning!!!!
Denis Melvin lol, team orders have always been a part of the sport
@@harrisonduncan8367 mate, I know team orders have always been there but I was happy that ferrari are hesitating to put team orders now. They are even getting charles next year who I doubt will play the game like kimi. But mercedes took it to another level yesterday. Team orders were completely unnecessary in that race.
@AceBean27 Lewis only won because Bottas was forced to let him go past
But do we really know that Hemal?? Lewis probably had an incline that team orders would come into it and if told "Lewis, if you want to win you have to beat him on the track" What would of happened then, we will never know. You see what happened when he come out the pits behind vetal, breezed past him. Then it would of come down to letting the cars race and then what happens if they touch like the red bulls in Aza, take each other out and vetal goes on to win, a 40 point lead would be a 15. Tbh, end of the day an i am with most people, botas move over to let lewis take the lead and on the last lap lewis hand it back, thats how it should of gone down.
@Gary Garratt Perez and Ocon was a complete different thing. Ocon was asked to let Perez overtake him to close the gap and possibly overtake KMag. If Perez wasn't able to do so, then they would swap back (which actually happened because Perez made no progress on that). I don't see any bad stuff there. The faster teammate overtakes the slower to maybe find a way to work together as a duo and in that situation, if it works, the one who made it possible should stay at front.
In Bottas vs Hamilton was purely because Hamilton was moaning on the radio about a negligent blister, that I don't think it was that much of a big deal, and Mercedes just decided to make both swap positions. What if it was Bottas getting real blisters because of Hamilton? Would he move aside to let Bottas overtake?
If the blisters were such a big thing I think the only ending possible would be giving Bottas the win because he let Hamilton pass him to control the tyres' health. In the end, Hamilton only won because of Bottas.
50 points > 43 points? Yes. Does anyone think Hamilton would lose 43 points in this last few races, seeing how dominant the Mercedes is looking on either reliability and overall performance? I don't think so.
But I would love to see if Ferrari manages to make up those points and Vettel ending up beeing the champion, just to see how Toto and James and even Bottas would react. Specially Bottas that probably would have been mugged a certain win that was needed to Lewis win the championship and would have ended up not beeing enough for Lewis. I would laugh so hard, but I also know there is no chance for that to happen.
Congratulations F1 - Today you lost another 3 fans!
With me we are 4
much more, my friend
you still watched the race highlights tho
@@haymont.s He needed to watch it before he could make his judgement.
They should just allow one driver and car from each team to get rid of the team riding..
5:26 Difficulty day for us? Really?
Its over.
Mercedes pace overtook Ferraris since Singapore by far ...
and using hardcore teamorder ...
Bottas supports Hamilton in each race since 2017 ...
Kimi didnt even in Monza 2018.
Or Germany 2018
I think Mercedes has the same pace.. it's Ferrari that has give up...
how in the fuck would ve rai helped vet? rai could ve only let him at the beginning pass but that would be stupid at least 2 more cars would ve overtaken him and after the 1st lap they didnt meet again
You can't blame Kimi for Monza
Monza is just Wrong to use here Vettel after the incident with Lewis was last so how in the world should Kimi help him there
Mercedes should be ashamed, this is embarrassing
Lance Y why is it embarasing? Why are you watching this sport?
Because they told bottas to let Hamilton win, disgusting attitude
