Very sad to see the performance of the Renault team. Instead of being the lead team with a Renault engine now RB has moved to Honda, McLaren seems to be the best Renault powered team now. Something really needs to change at Renault... Glad though McLaren seems to have found their way up... finally.

He was looking very sour, seeing Bottas outpacing Hamilton again and even winning the race.Ocon's feelings right now...
Maybe still thanks to having Ocon as a backup driver that Bottas recovered from last year so well.
It's now or never for him.
Would love to see a mirror shot from Daniel's Renault.
I know rearward visibility aft of the air-box is really bad in most open-wheeled car, but he was fairly far away from Kvyat's.
He could have engaged first and simply rotated the car to the right...since he had the space clear of that wall.
Still scratching my head on that one.
I wouldn't be surprise if he gets a grid drop at Spain for the contact.
I'm hoping he doesn't.

Don't know if he tried to look at mirrors or not
and yes he got 3 grid penalty for Spanish GP
I don't usually follow qualifying. But i did see on Facebook the wild stuff that went on in qualifying. So i watched the race with low expectations figuring it would be a wreck fest and full of pace car or virtual safety car. Turns out it was clean like on a permanent track. And the retirements where just minor technical glitches, and more mechanical due to stress on the engine. So good job for the drivers keeping there cool at BAKU.
