"Lewis, just checking in. Are your tires gone?"
 
Medium to medium, so that's a no

He's not really flying for once. I think Lando has a decent chance of taking this
Yeah, they tried to trigger a reaction from infront. Might be Hamilton that does it instead.

36 laps on the hards. It may be possible, but I doubt it will be faster than a 2 stop

Usual slowest pit stop of the grid for Mercedes. I honestly have no idea why they don't invest in decent pit stop training. They've lost multiple potential victpries due to this. Also game over for them with that strategy.
 
So Norris going for a 1 stop
 
Leclerc doing a 1 stop and at this rate, he will have an advantage at the end with the last pit stop done.

Lewis seems to have decent pace now that the hard tires are up to speed. I don't know if Verstappen is holding station in 2nd.
 
Lando needs to stay near Verstappen for the next 10 to 15 laps, if he can.

So far it looks like he's able to do this. It's mainly a matter of if he can make his tires last
 
24 laps for Hamilton will be a very tough ask.
 
If luck of the champion is an actual thing, those hards on the McLaren and Mercedes will fall of a cliff just as Max makes his pitstop.
 
Haven't seen Max that upset in a while, esp. at the front.

Hamilton could do the undercut on Norris here. Assuming their pit crew actually try.
 
Guy leading the race, and who's won 14 races this season, calls his car a "piece of ****"...
 
Huh, did not expect a Norris stop. Guess they're defending against Hamilton

Welp.

Don't you know how bad it is if your car is only 40% better than anyone else, instead of the usual 50%?

Hmmm Lando is on hards again. That's not good.
 
An SC would completely ruin this race.
Ok now we need an sc

Yeah I think so too. Stop that Hamilton undercut.

This lack of practice for teams is brilliant I think. Gives multiple choice and gambles.

But this all of the sudden got exciting again.
 
The car was genuinely off the pace that weekend.
Well kinda it was still capable of wining but Verstappen lost his head. Also it's not a track that he's great at either.
 
Kinda weird seeing basically 4 different teams going for the win :lol:
