On the onboards Verstappen does not look in control of his car. He's making multiple corrections nearly every corner
I've noticed the same. He definitely isn't having a ton of fun out there right now.
 
Did anyone have Verstappen fighting the Alpines and Haases on their bingo card for the year? 😅
 
At this point, I have a hard time seeing an actual 1-stopper being an effective strategy in this race.

At least, for anybody that isn't Alpine, evidently.

The racing with these regs has been fabulous! The boost is doing a great job of negating the losses from dirty air and the cars do seem to be following a lot closer anyway.

They need to sort out the start lottery and change the battery deployment curve so that the PU can at least drive over 300kph without being slowed by drag and therefore gets rid of this super clipping. The overtaking stats from this race are going to be impressive
 
Lewis Hamilton may very well be Leclerc's biggest threat this year if these last couple of laps are anything to go by.
 
Wonder how Ferrari will be later on in the year or even next year after the engine regs are fixed regarding compression ratio
Will Ferrari get its WCC after 20+ years?

I haven’t decided who I’ll be rooting for this year, but I have to say Ferrari is making a strong case...
 
I love the fighting, but Ferrari should probably consider pitting one of them.
 
If these two take each other out with 10 laps still to go, I think Max might smell blood in the water for Ollie.
