What bad luck Valtteri Bottas had in Monaco. He had outperformed Lewis Hamilton all weekend and seemed to be cruising to second place with ease. Until it went wrong at the pitstop. The wheel nut of his right front tyre did not come off and the Finn was forced to retire.
The wheel was even stuck so much that Bottas' car had to go to the Mercedes factory with the wheel still on so it could be removed. On Twitter Mercedes now announces that the wheel has finally been removed. Pit stop over. After four days and two hours...
