This will be my only post on this subject as the 'know all F1 followers' want to have an exclusive thread just for them and nobody else with an interest.

Come on LH another win to stop any moaning from Vettel & Co.

Mouthy Vettel finally shut up a few races back. LH destroying him both on the track and mind games.

The first bend of Mexico track is very tight, if the drivers do not drive carefully it will be carne-age.

I’m keeping my fingers crossed for a Chile-ewis Hamilton victory.

I think Lewis and Mercedes will be happy for Lewis to take 3rd and they will manage the car and the tyres accordingly. Red Bull appears to have the pace, I'm looking forward to Ricciardo and Verstappen having a right royal tussle.

Are you actually going to watch BG or will you be keeping an eye on the thread for an update?

Well Ricciardo’s car will break down at some stage surely?

Looking forward to it, will take something special for Vettel to win and Lewis not to get 7th though.

That's what all F1 hacks are saying, finish the race and allow all the others to get involved in impacts.

You have made me break my original assertion by asking a question and it is rude not to reply. I dont think I will watch it as I have Sky Go showing Man U v Everton so probably BBC Sport for updates.

Hope he wins the title, if for some reason he does not do it in Mexico, he WILL win it at some point.

I thought Hamilton's interview mentioning that he had to be careful because he had a Bull in front, was unnecessary, But that is Lewis Hamilton.

Not really, Verstappen is a loose canon why shouldn’t Hamilton state that he needs to be aware that Max is in front of him. Have you actually watched some of Verstappen’s driving this season? He’ll have you off the track before letting you past. Vettel is just as bad so he has one in front and one beside him that he needs to be aware of.

But there was no need for it.

Just when I thought Lewis had a mature head on he comes back to default mode.

Sorry, I know a lot of people admire his racing ability, but he really is a grade one arse.

I could see Vettel going ahead of Hamilton at the start. Ferrari’s launch control system is very effective and Hamilton may well rather have him in front of him than behind, less fear of a collision!

I guess you feel the same way about Max then? Throwing a strop because his team mate pipped him to pole on the last lap?
