The trolls won’t like this at all – Lewis (the GOAT) wins and not in the fastest car – outstanding drive from an outstanding driver and well driven Max
Max gave Lewis a great race.
looks like we're in for a good season!

Won because of better strategy.
And Verstappen being forced to give up a place for running off the track. Even though Hamilton ran off that part of the track on every lap......

The irony being that you had the first comment and slagged others off.
That makes you the troll!

a pretty luck win all things considered. Red Bull messed up their strategy, then the backmarkers helped Hamilton a lot (especially Russell). Then Verstappen is penalised for using track that Hamilton did the whole race
He still couldn't lace the boots of Senna or Schumacher in their prime. He's the champion in the worst era of motorsport. Nothing to write home about.
I agree, his consistency validates the goat title. Also. As you state, he was in the slower car and Lewis’s skill and guile usurped max.
Red Bull made the right call on strategy, a few things fell in to place to give LH some luck in last 10 laps, but a lesser driver would not have won race. Max will be WC, several times over, just a matter of time. I seriously hope this season it comes down to last race between these two.
Not in the fastest car? Barely.
Let’s see what happens when Russell gets put in the car next year.
Can’t wait for another season of:
Thanks to god
Fans here are the greatest

Most hypocritical sportsman on the planet. Drives for a team who’s history, as documented openly on their website, had a hand with a certain regime from 1935-1945 Removed

Credit to Hamilton - held out like a champion does best in a great battle with Max.
More of the same please !
Decent results for Norris and Leclerc.
One rookie looks very good - less said about another the better!

Tsunoda looks very exciting, if he keeps this up he could have a very successful career. Mick usually starts off slowly but gets better over time (and being in that dog of a Haas won't help much this year at all). The other rookie however looks to be worse than Yuji Ide
Whining about being passed outside turn 4, when you go off track turn 4 for 30 laps that gained you some 10 seconds. The F1 woke brigade and crybaby Lewis at it again
haha only one crybaby here, Karl
Maybe Max should have done the same throughout the race and won it.
Are you new to F1 or are your comments hiding something more sinister? Congratulations to Mr Hamilton. Stop looking for excuses.
Didn't take long for the obvious excuse and jealously to raise it's head....
*yawn*
*yawn*
O darling Karl, have you missed your dummy. Now go to mama for a suck suck.
HAMILTON - champ driving like a champ ??
Good racing today throughout the grid.
Good racing today throughout the grid.
To all those anti Sir Lewis fans out there - hahahaha - the men beats the boys. What a race
hamilton will never be a real sir until he acts with decency others like sir jackie stewart and sir bernie ecclestone
Surely the driver of the day should go to the faceless official who gifted Hamilton the race...
Surely Verstappen in a faster car could have overtaken Hamilton legally, that’s what the Hamilton haters have been saying for ages. It’s the car it’s the car, any body could win in Hamilton’s car. Perhaps Hamilton is just the better driver after all
I see the Hamilton haters are out in force. A bunch of jealise losers
Pathetic. All those comments about how it's going to be a competitive season and Red Bull are going to challenge was just a smokescreen to deflect from what's going to be another season won by the man with the fastest car.
"deflect from what's going to be another season won by the man with the fastest car."
It's accepted by every team in the paddock, and all F1 journalists and fans, that RBR have a much faster car than Merc this year.

So you didn't watch the race then.
Fastest car maybe....but Max and Christian Horner are also up against the best applied tactics from the pit lane for the last 7 seasons they make the right calls at the right time, and with Lewis they have the best driver to carry out their wishes, Bono and Toto and the lads on the laptops deserve as much credit as their drivers.
Seems it's no change then, one rule for Hamilton and another for the rest
Every driver was warned by the marshals with around 20 laps to go about turn 4, it's why Max had no argument.
Predictable and boring - Hamilton had already been warned by Race Control.
Don't let your hate distort what happened, or it will be a long season for you lol

So if the track limits were a brick wall, would Verstappen have passed Lewis on that corner? No - jog on Origo
Wow! What an exciting and fascinating race! I’m looking forwards to seeing more of that this season. Well done Max and Lewis.
Well if the rest of the season lives up to that.
I for one will have no complaints.
Handing over to the inevitable trolls who will!

Usually I am someone who could be considered a "Hamilton hater" (though hopefully not a troll)... But watching the race today I don't think he did anything wrong. Verstappen had the chance to legitimately take the lead and the win with 4 or 5 laps to go and stupidly went to the outside. Lewis was only ever going to slide wide with momentum and put verstappen wide. Verstappen threw away victory
Performances like this show you how stupid the closet racists and Hamilton haters keep making themselves look with that "all the car" tripe.
are you sure its the anti Hamilton people on here that are the so called Trolls, after all his supporters turn that way when he doesnt win
a WORTHY champion does the business again.
WELL DONE LEWIS!
WELL DONE LEWIS!
I thought it was just about the car, if so why didn’t Max win... something isn’t right here
But... but I thought it was only that he had the fastest car that he won??
Exceptional race, loved every minute and I can't wait to see what this season has in store. FINALLY it looks like we'll be getting the Lewis v Max battle we've all been waiting for :D

Also, it will be forgotten among the noise at the top but what a drive from Perez. Starting in the pit lane and finishing 5th on debut for his new team. Showing us early why he deserved his seat.
If you listen to Max he did have issues that need ironing out and a bad pit stop but don't let that get in the way of the Hamilton luvvies.
Perez nowhere and faster than Bottas. Sorry Merc are still the quicker car by a long way.
Verstappen is arrogant, impatient and too aggressive. He will keep making mistakes, and Hamilton is already under his skin, and will just needle him into making more mistakes. Max needs to watch out for his team mate Perez - a much calmer driver: what happens mid-season, if Perez is doing better than Max?

The only reason Hamilton won this is because he’s in a car that goes much faster than everyone else’s - that’s largely driven by a powerful computer in the pits. Daft really. It’s not down to the skill of the driver.
I'm guessing you didn't watch the race?
He never had the fastest car, Max did.

The same could be said about a certain bed-ridden German. Keep hating, it's going to be a long season for you. Congratulations to Mr Hamilton.
The sort of comment that should make any sane person worry about driverless cars.
Shock, horror. Driver in best car wins again. Whatever next?
Stick to 'football', this HYS is a tad above 'you' nescient types.

But but, Lewis only wins because he has the best car?! Well guess what Lewis didn't have the best car today and he still won!! Great race, hoping the rest of the races are as good as this one.
He won because Verstappen was forced to hand back the lead.
I don't know what race you were watching, but I saw Verstappen overtake him to take the lead and then was forced to hand it back by some faceless official.
Didn't have the best car, but had all the luck, especially with the backmarkers. Dodgy Williams holding up Verstappen on orders from their superiors?
Calm down dear. The only way Max could pass Lewis was to cheat and he was caught out. Sour grapes me thinks...
"...hoping the rest of the races are as good as this one." Well, I'm hoping for some actual racing. You know, with overtaking. Not where it's all won on race strategy. Probably, a vain hope, I know.
One off in special circumstances doesn’t change 6 years :-)
man in fast car goes round and round quicker than other men if fast cars yawn!
Man on computor keyboard comments on a hys on a subject he finds boring....yawn
Why comment then, just go & finish your homework
Bore off.
Didn't watch the race I take it then?
Better than watching a ball being kicked up and down an oversize lawn :P
Keyboard warrior comes on F1 Sports comments page clearly knows nothing about the sport, he should have gone to the Dear Deidre section.
You couldn't!
Bottas proves you wrong, but since when do facts matter eh?
History says otherwise but I bow to your superior knowledge.
Bottas can't. I imagine you couldn't either. So that not everyone.

What controversy? Red Bull told Max to give the place back, and Max made a mistake in not waiting one corner before giving the place back. If he'd waited, he'd have overtaken HAM again - Max has the best car on the grid by a huge margin.
It's only Hamilton's driving skill that managed to overcome the massive speed advantage Red Bull have.

Rules are rules mate. Max and Red Bull accepted the infringement. What makes you so special?
Sorry Steve...does the fact that the little black guy won again upset you?
What controversy??? Surely there can’t be a different rule for Max vs the rest, even if we wish that could be the case to make the championship more "exciting". We have seen countless drivers in the past hand back places for completing overtakes outside of the track limits with nothing said afterwards, not sure why this is different.
Bound to be contoversy if Banger Racer Verstappen is involved!
Boohoo. Bee. Arch.
But wasn't of his making. He didn't tell Verstappen to give back the lead.
Really? Imagine if the situation was reversed, and Lewis overtook Max off the track...
How 'controversial' would it have been if Lewis then slowed down to let Max overtake and Max won?
Somehow can't imagine there'd be quite as many people talking down the win if it had happened the other way around.

Love loath or indifferent it would be churlish to say hamilton is legitimately tagged GOAT by many fans and some pundits. It has a smack ulterior motive and having an axe to grind by him winning in a slower car today
Redbull had complained earlier in the race that hamilton was crossing the line on an exit, excellent that verstappen was punished on the very same corner for the same infringment.

Haters are always going to hate but well done Lewis against all the odds & Max for having the fastest car all weekend blew it big style when it really mattered! Lewis will only get stronger & faster so he's already the man to beat like him of loath him....
The fact that a distinctly average driver like Bottas came a comfortable 3rd, shows that Mercedes is still the fastest car.
There's a reason why Hamilton will never change teams or allow for a world class driver to join him in the Mercedes team......

Great race, exciting season ahead, easy to see why LH is the 7 time Champion.
Yes, because he has by far the best car. And a team mate who is happy not to try challenge him.....
Even George Russel could win races in that car.......

Because he has zero competition. This is the worst era in motorsport history yet people fawn over him like he was the second coming.
Any of the grid would win his car.

Yep because he has all the money behind him. Take him away from the top 2 teams and watch him disappear without a trace
What is so exciting about a two horse race. if you want excitement I suggest you watch Moto GP.

Albon would have done the same. I like Perez, he didn't deserve to be kicked out of RP/AM. But he needs better weekends than this to justify taking Albon's seat.
Agreed 100%. Let’s see if he can hold it together for the whole season. If he does he may just threaten Max’s pre-eminent position.
Sorry but no, we've seen time and again if you have one of the top cars (this year Merc/RBT) then it's fairly easy to come through the field and finish ahead of most of the midfielders. Perez looked OK, held it together and did the expected job after a poor qualifying. Not bad for a first race with RBR but will need to do much more to prove himself better than the Juniors were.
Will be interesting to see how Max reacts if Checo settles quickly.
Will be a new experience for MV to have to fight to be seen as RB's no1 (I bet he'll start throwing Alain Prost style hissy fits)!

Didn't take long for Hamilton to get an advantage....even the officials do their best to help him....Verstappen should have ignored the order & stayed in front - let them sort it out in the pit lane after....
If the radio informs them that they need to give the place back, if ignored then the punishment may have been more than the 5 secs, maybe a drive thru or something. Red Bull did the right thing to be fair.
The track is the track...no-one is allowed to gain an advantage by going off the track - it has always been the case.
That’s what being the best driver does, gives you an advantage.
Then he would have been disqualified. I take it you don't know the rules or you are just again Hamilton
man in fast car goes round and round quicker than other men if fast cars yawn!
Yet another bad day for the Hamilton haters; dear oh dear, you guys just don't get it, do you? The argument that "Lewis only wins because he has the best car" has been shown to be especially specious today. He demonstrably had an inferior car to the Red Bull but still won and on older tyres too! If he keeps up this form then 2021 could be a LONG year for the haters....
How old are you? 10?
There's going to be a lot of crying by the haters. Let's hope so. ??
Haters? From what I could see MV was ordered to surrender the lead thereby allowing Hamilton the win.
So true what is their bloody problem jealous gits.
Not a particularly fan or enemy of any driver, used to be big f1 fan years ago but got bored, if Lewis is in the slow car and still wins why is this season worth watching when it's the same outcome?
Hear hear ????
I'm a Hamilton hater in the sense that I don't agree with giving an interview whilst driving a convertible around Monaco claiming "I have bills to pay too" whilst earning Millions of pounds. From a racing perspective I think he is brilliant.
That "all the car" bull is backfiring spectacularly today and the Hamilton haters and closet racists are looking very silly indeed.
On this track, on this weekend, the Red Bull is about half a second a lap faster than the Mercedes. For Lewis to even be in contention on the last few laps - regardless of Max's off track excursion - without pit stop errors or mid race safety car, was an immense effort.
Cant wait to see your excuses , and his when he doesnt win, after all its gonna be someone elses fault!!!!!
It’s going to be a long year listening to:
I’m vegan don’t you know
Fans here (at every track) are the best in the world
My tyres are shot (keeps going 20 more laps)
Ad nauseam.

Sorry! but just don’t like a person who thinks he’s Malcom X! Excellent driver.
I do like him but I don't agree with his politics and I don't think it's right to bring them up at a race weekend.
Be fair though, how many cars were ever likely to win 6?, 8?
So he was best of 8, with assistance.

I've never been a fan of Hamilton to be honest, but I thoroughly enjoyed that race and fair play to Hamilton for the win.
I do think he's had it easy in the past, but that was quality and can't wait to see more proper racing.

What Lewis lucking out again? I don't hate lewisz I think he is quite a decent guy. Just hate to see him being handed it on a plate again having exceeded track limits all race himself
I think he probably relishes the competition. His competiveness has got him here. If anything he probably wants more
Just goes to show even when his car is not as fast as red bull don't think Hamilton will make it easy for you man against a boy
They're not just haters but racists too lol. Well such devilish traits will grind down and send someone to the graveyard quicker cutting down their actual life expectancy because the mind and soul is infested by hate and racist views
It's taken six years for one team to catch the fastest car on track, get your mum to just put your dummy back in ??

Actually I think Hamilton won because RB messed up their tyre strategy. Hamilton has shown that he is capable of winning with a slower car on several occasions, but I don’t think for a moment he would be a 7 times world champion without the domination or reliability of the Merc. To Hamilton’s credit much is owed to being with the right team at the right time...smart guy.
read the rules ., you cannot leave track to gain advantage (gain the lead )
#
#
You can only imagine how loud he squealed over team radio when max ran wide. Conveniently forgetting he was doing it all the time earlier in the race.
While there is a grey area on exceeding track limits (which varies from track to track), one rule is always clear. You CANNOT overtake a car by going off the track.
But , but , but , but .....
I’ve not watched F1 for a while but am confused by the upset people on here. Why on earth do they think overtaking by going off the track is ok? Would they expect an Olympic 400m runner to still get gold if he’d cut a few bends too?
By his own team, after they admitted (immediately) that he’d passed illegally (not the first time in his career), thinking he’d easily pass Lewis on the next lap.
Great strategy, great drive, deserved result. End of story.
Great strategy, great drive, deserved result. End of story.
You'd prefer someone to win by cheating?
He won because Verstappen broke the rules.
Because you cannot overtake outside track limits. It's a very simple rule that has been around for years.
Verstsappen should be on a lead. Maybe he wouldn't overtake off the track then.
STOOPID RULES!!!
Not very good at this are fella?
ahh, but you forgot to mention that MAX CRACKED when he made a fatal error on track! That is why he lost the race.
Lewis won because he had the lead for two thirds of the race and did enough to prevent Max passing him whilst staying within the regulations.
You cant overtake when your off the track. So MV didn't have the lead
Really? From what I saw Red Bull wheel changes were much quicker. So you're wrong again.
Whining about being passed outside turn 4, when you go off track turn 4 for 30 laps that gained you some 10 seconds. The F1 woke brigade and crybaby Lewis at it again
And there you have it. All those who thought that Lewis couldn’t hack it in a slower car need to now shut up. And before you cry about the track limits thing....the road is only so wide...if you gain by going off the road, then you have to give it back...it has always been the case. How can you compare a 7 times world champion with a person who has won team races? Crofty should shut the F up!
Say what you like about LH and MV but Crofty is a saint
Absolutely agree about Croft. No inanity is too inane for him. Thank God for Martin Brindle.
Stooker, Crofty is clearly lacking in grey matter. Not a clue

Master Sir Lewis Hamilton does it again. What a incredible race victory against the faster Red bull and Max. Great start to the new season.
Great racing, unlucky for Max driving with mechanical issues from lap 1 but I feel if RB were a bit more aggressive with their strategy he still could have won.
Lewis proving why he is the best of this bunch yet again.
If the racing is going to be like this for the rest of the year then it is a win for all true F1 fans.

In previous years I've thought Max Verstappen a little too immature to really challenge, it feels like he's there now though, a formidable package at RB.
But the day belongs to the 'old guard', what a race LH. Not bad for an old bloke. ;)

It’s hilarious reading comments from people who clearly haven’t a clue about F1 racing, they’re still trying to claim Lewis only won today because he was in the fastest car...
Hears that he has won. Comes on HYS to slag him off just because he is... Well, you know.

How would Hamilton (or anyone) fare in a Williams or Haas?
He won cuz he was HANDED the league, it's hilarious you dont know this.

"Hamilton wins in Bahrain after Verstappen forced to hand back lead" - misleading headline from the BBC, the agenda is obvious.
Great win!
Great win!
Absolutely disgusting heading, the Bias against Lewis is obvious & indeed shameful.
It is not at all misleading. Hamilton did indeed win, the race was in Bahrain, Verstappen was forced to hand back the lead after only gaining it by leaving the track and the victory did indeed occur after Verstappen was forced to hand the lead back. Which part of it is misleading?
There is no other driver on the grid that could have eeked those tires out the way Lewis did.
Can't wait for the rest of the season.
As a side note, fantastic to see McLaren still right up there battling for 3rd best team on the grid, and even though I am no Ferrari fan, it feels right them up there fighting again.
Great race, great outcome, bring on the rest of the season.

You couldn't be more correct about Sir Lewis tire management ability, superb!
Perez.
i can think of one Perez, but Hamilton drive today was one of his best max pushed him all the way but made an error at the last moment that stopped him winning. This will be a great season if all the races are like this
Welcome back F1, that was quite a race. Possibly the greatest of all time is not going to succumb to a 23 year old, even in a faster car!
One remembers the field backed up behind Villenueve's Ferrari that drove "like a barn door" or Senna's 1992 victory in Monaco after Mansell had to stop for tyres.
As the late great Murray used to say, catching them is one thing...

Fast car, average car, slow car, hard tyres, medium tyres, soft tyres,...still wining, 7 time and soon to be 8 time WDC. Need I say more, GOAT!
Wining? Do you mean whining???
He may win but he is not a GOAT
MORE OF THIS FOR THE REST OF THE SEASON, PLEASE! An excellent race all over. Sir Lewis showing why he is the greatest, Perez had an amazing recovery drive, Norris getting 4th place and young Tsunoda had an excellent debut. Shout out to Vettel with his usual clumsy habits though.
I assume that the Red Bull strategists are on furlough?
That was a gift to Mercedes.

Poor strategy. Going on medium then medium tyres gave Mercedes 30 plus laps to work out how to win. Which they did.
Told to hand it back because he went off track which is exactly what Verstappen had complained about Hamilton doing earlier in the race. He can have no complaint with that.
He was watching the race where you can’t overtake someone by going off the track.
....for gaining an advantage by going off the track.
There’s a shortcut between turns 1 and 2 apparently but you’re also not allowed to use that.

Wow. Dry your eyes mate.
How many posts must we read of you whining?

Well I guess you must have a better view and knowledge than experienced officials otherwise that would just make you a hater
Well you have just embarrassed yourself.
that faceless official was the Red Bull team who were warned like Mercs not to exceed the track limit.
What race were you watching?
Then again, you of certain types are more than willing to make up lies to make your well known agenda believable to yourselves.

Hilarious to see the pundits and media desperate to try and detract from Lewis' amazing win by trying to feed the trolls the talking points about track limits. The fact that they are all spouting this nonsense shows how much these pathetic reporters, journalists and pundits work together to try and undermine Hamilton.
Once again Lewis demonstrates why he is the BEST EVER and once again the closet racists will be throwing their toys out of the pram and clutching at straws to try and convince us otherwise.

This is the second time now we have seen a masterclass from Lewis in how to drive fairly and defensively and win whilst being a sitting duck with inferior tyres.
Lewis did it to Rosberg in 2014 and he did it to Max today.

Everybody knows the rules have been changed to slow Merc down so it is really pathetic to see all members of the media coordinating with each other and all announcing their FAKE shock and surprise that Toto or Lewis would state the bleedin obvious that they're being targeted by the rule changes.
Thats the level of dishonesty & gaslighting currently coming from the pundits, media and journalists.

Same old. Mercedes sandbagging. Hamilton gets every shred of luck. Red Bull blow it / can’t compete. Bottas is an embarrassment, happy to pick up third places.
Bottas does his job, which is to protect Hamilton. Merc don't want two evenly matched drivers again, as it was only their superiority over the rest of the grid which stopped Hamilton vs Roxburg ending in tears.
Of course you’re right, Hamilton is bang average and has just been lucky.....96 times!! ??

* complaint to race control
Roll on the rest of the season.
A racer is always a racer and Max got the best out of him today.
Thought Red Bull might have shot themselves in the foot a little with the 'instruction' * to Max about the Mercedes drivers overstepping at turn 4 earlier I the race
* complaint to race control
Roll on the rest of the season.
verstappen gained an advantage, he had to give place back
Red bull told max to run wide at that part of the track because Hamilton wasn't being penalised. Race control then advised Hamilton to stop, and so he did. So every lap is pure fiction otherwise he'd have been disqualified well before the 'controversy'. Did you even watch? All played on air over the radio.
clearly not an F1 fan just a racist troll otherwise you would know the rules and that gaining an advantage by going off track eg taking a place results in one of two measures you give the place back or get a 5-second penalty
It is clear to us all what you are and you and people like you are not welcome on here.
RB were warned just like Hamilton for Max doing the same.
It was RB that told Max to give the place up.
Got to love the pathetic excuses that "Celts" always come up with.
Is it English or that he is black you did not like today? You will see the usual suspects back on today, irate that the4y have been personally humiliated again by Hamilton.
Watch the race, not make up lies for your agenda

So? Turn 4 wasn't put on the track limit list at the start, the stewards imposed it after every driver was going wide with 20 laps to go.
Trolling on rugby, football and now F1
Red Bull with the quickest car and still lose the race. Unfortunately, in 2 - 3 races time Mercedes will have pretty much sorted their rear imbalance out and will then have arguably the fastest car and on todays showing, the fastest driver.
Well! well!! well!!! What a curtain raiser to the F1 season............an appertiser of car racing to look forward to in 2021/22 calendar year.
Max gave his all..........but big daddy Lewis, king of the track showed his extra qualities again. The battle line has been drawn and we are in for a treat ??????

To be king of the track, surely you have to stay on it. He constantly drove where he liked to gain a time advantage. It would be interesting to actually check how many times he broke track limits during that race.
As Martin Brundle said you arenot allowed to leave the track limits without good reason.

That's the difference...if Lewis was in the Red Bull he would have still won! If this is a barometer for the 2021 season though then I can't wait!
Now can the idiots who keep saying that Hamilton only wins because he has the fastest car, please shut up!
I propose a banning of anyone not using Sir Lewis Hamilton's full title.
Awww you poor Britophobe
I bet Lando getting points angered you just as much too

You mean the well known race director Michael Masi?
If the driver of that car could overtake legally, then he wouldn't have been told to give way. It isn't difficult, you can leave the circuit, but not gain an advantage if you do. What is so hard to understand?
