Might need a gearbox change, thus a 5 place grid penalty

Re: 2017 Formula 1 Season Thread
I have to admit after looking at this i would have to say it was Lance Strolls fault and he just didn't see Vettel, i would have loved it to be Vettels fault again though.
I am surprised Lance didn't get a penalty for that mistake.

I did see the crash and it looks 50/50.
Oh and yeah Snoopz, I'm anti Ferrari, as they seem to be very lucky with penalties

Lewis must have enough points in the bag to win the 2017 championship now, i can't see him losing it.

Well Lewis is 59 points ahead, with 4 races to go.
On paper Vettel can still win.

Yes he can still win but the bookies rarely get it wrong and their view is he is he is home and dry.

Oh year for sure, but his engine & bits are the last before penalties (20+ grid places)

Re: 2017 Formula 1 Season Thread
With 100 points available from 4 races, if Vettel was to win them all, Hamilton needs to claim 42 points, a 4th and and 3 5th's would do it, or with one DNF, 2 3rds and a 4th.
Unless Hamilton gets hit by some bad luck, it's all over.

Fool, unless something changes a lot, McLaren will not be winning points again next year.

Hopefully a different engine will improve McLarens points next year, it was the best option they had for an engine.

Hamilton is on pole for the US race, if he wins and Vettel finishes lower than 5th then he will clinch the title today.
