If anybody deserved to win it was Bottas, especially since he's yet to stand on the top step of the podium all year. Hamilton already had a huge lead in the championship and he was going to add even more to it by placing 2nd.

I read the analysis and I understand why they did it. Hamilton blistered his tires passing VET on track. He would have been exposed to VET at he end of the race and lost points to VET rather than gain points. Finishing behind VET was unacceptable and maintaining BOT as a tail gunner in this case was the only decision possible to maintain the AMG 1-2. BOT will get his chance. He's the one of 2 drivers in the most dominant team in the history of F1 but has the misfortune of being teamed with the GOAT.
Cheers my friend-mk
