I half agree Bernie but those are the current rules and that's what they have to race with, a number of times in the past Hamilton has been in that situation where his tyres have been dead, but he manage to hold on to the lead.

 

Doesn't make for  "exciting " racing though mate , not in my book anyway , but perhaps I,m spoiled having been around the race tracks before  health & safety came before everything we do Watching  racing like Silverstone 1969 Rindt v Stewart or the Monza slipstreamers  will sadly never happen again 

1969 Brit Grand Prix

Great racing yes, but at a great cost too. The health and safety era has no doubt taken the edge off the racing, but has also almost eradicated deaths in the sport.

 

i do think they need to channel the past into current f1 though, simple v8/10/12 more open rules, simple aero, tyres that can be pushed 100%. Sadly not going to happen.
