I got the impression at the time, when Nico came steaming up on LH, Mercedes were expecting Nico to be let through. By the time they realised that wasn't going to happen, the tyres were on the way out, and they pitted him.

Still trying to work out how Seb got away with that spin on the straight too. I felt a bit sorry for Bottas and Massa - can't work out why Williams went to mediums that early.

It's amusing watching all the "favored German team, German driver" nonsense (Rosberg is half Finnish, essentially regards himself as from Monaco, and the team is essentially English - it's the ex-Brawn that was the ex-Honda team!). It does make me realise how silly I must have looked when all that Webber realiability/conspiracy/#2 driver stuff was going over past few years. Outside looking in thing
Rosberg considers himself German,He was born in Germany.like all big money men is a tax exile in Monaco,when the money stops they go else where.
I am sure Lewis Hamilton is having thoughts along the lines of team favouritism.
Tell the Men in Munchen that Mercedes is British, and they will string you up from the highest flag pole
Cheers
