It's so annoying to hear British commentators whine about the radio ban suddenly because it's so unfairly hurting Ham.

The same Sky that wanted these rules a few years back because Nico was getting too much help apparently.

This. Nico went to poo poo for half a season because of it.

That said if Lewis spent more time in the Sims he might know what to do if the car fucks up.

Why are both merc drivers not very good on learning their own cars?
Nico with it post it notes, ham with his disinterest in caring about race prep...
Ages ago brake problems. It just blows my mind on such a technical car (which is why it's the best car ATM), the drivers are so useless at that kind of stuff.

The rule is amazing because lovely drivers lose a crutch.

In complete coincidence it's affecting Lewis for the second time this season.

Ted worked out the swearing filter. I remember ages ago a few people said they would swear just so it wouldn't be broadcast. Webber was a fan of that system.

If Lewis didn't have this issue he would be catching Perez and making a more exciting end to this race.

This thread in general hates Hamilton. Because he has a super dominant car and is an insufferable oval office out of the car.
