LH setting a lot of fast laps...maybe remembering this wrong but there was a time when the tread of inters burned off they kinda turned into slicks and if this happened on a drying track then it was a benefit?

Not the most exciting race so far. Could use a bit more rain.

The main reason Hamilton is quick is because he’s good and has a decent car. He has to get on with it and can’t play the tyre game like the others. It might well not impact him as much as on another day for the reason you say. |

Perez hung in there well and kept the spot.
Fun stuff. |

Seb with the mediums...could be inspired.
Guess lh has to see how that works out now. |

The slicks aren't really working for Vettee. Strange decision.

This is big money decision time.
For sure trying to run the inters all race risks a tire puncture? That could be the title if LH fails to finish. |

To pit or not to pit, that is the question for Hamilton and Mercedes.

Congrats to Bottas, that was a solid drive and well deserved.
Hamilton will be hopping mad. |

Hindsight but he should have undercut perez earlier.
Had he not stopped he probably finishes ahead of leclerc...if he finished at all. Something to debate anyways Bottas did really well. |

I’d have liked to see him try to hold on. The bad bit was not committing one way or the other and doing the middle which didn’t try to maximise either of the choices.

I would love to be a fly on the wall when they have the Mercedes debrief with Lewis.
