Left-rear failure. Seems to be a repeat of what happened to Stroll.
 
I think Pirelli gonna have to answer for that after the commentators said Pirelli originally had no worries after Stroll’s failure.

Could be huge moment in this Championship...
 
Championship over.
 
Will Perez now pit as 2 tire failures.
 
So is the rule we don't trust Pirelli with their word again?
 
Demon Drone
Two punctures now?! Perelli has some explaining to do. Vettel to P3!

Depends. If there's debris in a particular place then all the cars might have had a chance of getting damage. The teams are saying the hards that they've taken off don't look unusually worn. There'll certainly be quite the investigation though I'm sure.
 
Looks like the same failure that Stroll had. Damn that is painful >_<
 
Perez now leads!
 
Well, I wanted Vettel on the podium, but not quite like that. :indiff:

Pirelli's not gonna be popular in the paddock this week.
 
Will we have a restart though?
 
Whoa......everyone is going to jump in the pits after that!! :eek:
 
Anyone else getting tried (pun not intended) of Pirelli's crap? How many times has this happened now? I miss tyre competition.

Red flag.

Why?? Are they seriously going to restart the race...?

Hamilton, luckiest man alive
 
RED FLAG!
 
That's crazy. I would hope Pirelli tires wouldn't fail like that without enough wear.

Red flag
 
A red flag now? With the additional safety car laps, they might as well end the race at this point.
 
Three-lap sprint or calling it finished? Kinda want the latter, just for Perez to win it, but the former would be mental and hilarious.

End of race? Bummer to end it like this. Perez P1 that's at least something positive

disappointment in one picture:

Would the race be called at this point? Because the race distance minimum has been met and throwing a Red Flag only to restart the race with three laps to go smacks of NASCAR gimmicks from me.

Commentators saying that Verstappen could still win if the race doesn't restart...

-

Looks like the race may have been red-flagged because the race director has deemed the Pirelli Hard tyres to be too dangerous to continue on...

Weird position to restart the race at this point, only 2 laps remaining.
 
Are they going to restart this for just 3 laps??
 
If they were to restart, the cars could all restart on fresh tyres, which may be race control's thinking.
 
Wouldn’t mind if they just ended it. Perez and Vettel put in the work to finish where they are if it ends now.
 
I think if race does not continue, it's a win for Max. I doubt FIA wants that tbh.
Wouldn't be surprised if they do a 2 lap shootout
