They were jinxing it earlier by saying how Pirelli were confident the tires could last till the end of the race.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Clearly Pirelli have fecked these hard tyres and the advice they've given to the teams, could have killed Max and Stroll with failures at that speed, not even a joke.
And as mentioned in my comment posted almost simultaneously with yours, he’s been cost at least one title by luck as well
Guess what? So has almost every single world champion ever.
And bad luck. As has been detailed by other posts.
They all should have changed tyres. Hamilton obviously kept his tyre in better condition. Is that luck?
Weirdly Russell pitted on the first lap and is still going fine
Hope they don't restart. Adding drama for the sake of it.
True. Really poor. Dangerous stuff.
It has absolutely nothing to do with tyre management.Hamilton was pushing in Perez's dirty air since the restart, Max was lifting and coasting to the win.
Had the race gone to the end with no stop we'd have seen more failures.
and other drivers have not benefitted over the years, it is made out like Lewis is the only one that benefits.
Seb came out the best from the SC , he was nowhere near the podium, but now he is in 3rd, but yeah Lewis is lucky !
You mustn’t have been watching the season he lost to Rosberg.
And as @gormless just pointed out he's had awful luck too that cost him championships. It goes both ways.
This title race is still far from over. Red Bull seem to be getting stronger as the season goes on. Max will be back in the hunt soon enough .
Yeah obviously a huge feck up on their part. Stroll didn't even have much wear. Max is very good at managing tires too, his were definitely no worse than Perez or Hamilton. Red Bull now saying there was absolutely no indication the tires were in bad shape.
One thing Perez has over Max is tyre management and its proved right in this race
Assuming it's not a complete coincidence and both Lance and Max picked up a puncture on the same tyre in the same place, it's completely unacceptable for Pirelli to allow tyres which could fail at 200mph. Nothing either Stroll or Verstappen could do. Luckily both are OK.
and I thought I'm a fanboylooks like the race will re-start. Well Sky are saying it.
I guess Fergie is a lucky manager too -- '99 and 2007 slip?
Right because Stroll's tires were worn eh? Max wasn't coasting to the win while Hamilton was pushing to overtake Perez? Get a grip.
F1 is high speed, tyres tend to blow at their highest load, tyres have been blowing for donkeys years for all manner of reasons.
Pirelli’s though so take the crown for most blowouts in history.

So one lap SC and 2 laps to the finish?
Anyone who thinks this has anything to do with tyre management doesnt understand the first thing about Formula 1.
Feel bad for Max, did nothing wrong all race and was even cruising and barely pushing his car, yet gets a tyre failure.
This restart should be interesting, if Hamilton manages to take the win people are going to have a meltdown.
If Bottas has a few more races like this he should get replaced midseason, shocking race from him.

Needs Basil Fawlty branch.
Latiffi will get getting a penalty, all down to a huge cock up from his team
Stroll definitely had a lot of wear considering he hasn't pitted.
But yup, this is all on Pirelli. They told teams that the hard compound could last for 40 laps
I really feel for Max and he will be righty pissed off.
Hard to say right now. I think the last two just favoured Red Bull. Also, isn't there going to be a rule change over the rear wings after this? For now, I think Mercedes will be favourites in most races this year.
I'm loving these FIA radio messages
only joking. Max is a cnut but he didn't deserve that. Just happy it benefits Lewis.Want to see Lewis win for the sheer amount of piss it will boil.
Yeah this is a great addition this year.
There will be a huge investigation , two tyres blown , well below the minimum Pirelli stated
Hope Seb can drive it home for the podium.
/bottas 14th! That's so bad
Can you imagine if we had Albon in the Red Bull today instead of Perez?
We'll be looking at Red Bull absolutely fecked.
