They are going for so many laps on ultra seems weird but I guess with the super soft being 1sec slower they fear to switch to them and not being able to do anything pace wise.
 
Peter.
Gotta say I'm thoroughly enjoying this race. Lots of exciting battles and heaps of overtaking going on, with the beauty of the Sochi parking lot a backdrop for these nail biting battles.

Can't wait to see more of Sochi for many more years to come.

Vettel went to Jehovah and back on turn 3 this lap...
 
For the first time, a Mercedes doesn't lead a lap of the Russian Grand Prix

Not looking good for action in this race, at least Melbourne had cars following closely behind one another even if overtaking opportunities were few.

At which point? Definitely not the early parts that I was witnessing :D
 
BLUE FLAG!!!

Vettel says it again
 
Vettel staying out.

We were taking about Ferrari pit strats? :lol:
 
Where do Ferrari want Vettel to finish? 4th?
 
Kimi forgot which Merc was leading the race. :D

I think it's the right call... covers a potential safety car and gives them more chances to remove the deficit to Bottas. They're not struggling with tyres/brakes/heat like Mercedes.
 
Ferrari realizing Vettel is faster than Bottas now
 
Ferrari staying out too long. Where have we seen that before?

Bernie AND Chase meeting Putin
 
Shows how little is happening in the race when we get 2 replays of a car locking up but still making the apex.

Yeah that's not going to happen this year, cement doesn't tend to randomly explode.
 
Bottas ****ed up his front tyres.

Vettel is going to get him.
 
As I said in the last GP thread, everyone has there day, and that was Bahrain. Nice to have you back Ferrari with your "awesome strategies"
 
Hulkenberg still hasn't pitted. He'll be doing some overtaking to finish off the race hopefully.
 
So, possibly 2 absolute non characters on the podium. Bring out the alcohol!
