On a serious note, Pirelli got some splaining to do. Tires should not be failing like that.

That DNF just cost Max the season

 

[Iron Man]

They need to stop the race, who's to say someone else tire is not going to explode.

This race needs to be stopped

Yup, like Lewis in Spain in 2016.

Edit: I still feel a type of way when I hear Nico referred to as having won a championship.

This race needs to be stopped

It has been stopped and the track will now be cleared of all debris... also all teams have the opportunity to change their tires.

Lewis knew the tires would not hold up, that was why he was not pushing and zig-zag on restart.

People want to see a complete race.... also fairer for the drivers, it gives them the opportunity to gain places if possible... anything is possible in 2 laps.

 

[sinistercane]

If Lewis tires would have went out the race would have continued

What a cluster fuck of a race...

Toto Wolf (Mercedes Chief Engineer) says Hamilton incident on the restart was the result of a technical problem.... "the brake balance changed, went all the way forward" and caused the car to lock up when applied.... no blame on the driver.

Brake magic' is understood to be a setting used by Mercedes behind the Safety Car to help heat the brakes by altering, amongst other things, the brake bias settings. As I stated, Cluster Fuck.

Yes, "Brake magic" is the term referred to the setting used.
