Lewis trying to close the gap before the pit stops, that's 2 fastest laps now

Id safely say the Ferrari ain't going as fast as it can do.

Ghost Train

Hamilton lost a bit of time there

Cool_CM

And Lewis runs wide

Jordan 199

Lewis is one unhappy dude at the moment.

Ghost Train

Hamilton falling back
Temperatures maybe not suiting the tyres

Rossi IRL

Mercedes have really lost out to Ferrari over the winter.

And the last thing he would want is Max all over the back of him

skipper_G

The future coming for Alonso

Cool_CM

Jaysus, that was tight!

Ghost Train

Hard racing between the teammates at redbull

Ghost Train

Wonder which Redbull will pit first

Squeaky bum time on the Redbull pitwall

Jesus I gave Channel 4 a go but the commentary is just as bad.

Rossi IRL

Have we heard Horner telling Verstappen to let Ricciardo past yet?

I would have expected that call ages ago.

Vettels tyres look past their best
That front right has obvious graining

I think he's waiting for Bottas to pit, Hamilton lost a **** ton of time on the softs so he doesn't want to take that chance.

EDIT: Or not. :pac:

Bottas has got the fastest lap now with 1:45. He is 11 seconds ahead of Vettel.

If Bottas can stretch this stint, maybe he could try the ultra softs, if he has any?

Maybe the Redbulls could do the same

skipper_G

So many struggling with the tyre temps. Might be worthwhile staying away from softs and using the Ultrasoft instead for somebody like Bottas

RB's have used Ultras according to DC.

Just had the same thought, and then Karun Chandhok mentioned it there as well. Seems the way to go

Ghost Train

Could be good end to the race if they go for the Ultras

Hamilton might lose out to Bottas too

After pit stops Alonso could be in for points.

Mike Litoris

Good man Danny.

Ghost Train

Fastest lap for Ricciardo on 35 lap old tyres?

Cool_CM

Danny Ric has balls of steel!

Mike Litoris

That was some pass!

DRS though. Be interesting to see what his next couple of laps will be.

The tyre choices for this GP have been a major disappointment. Although Riccardo is apparently doing very well to cope with them with his manoeuvrs against Verstappen. Riccardo has the fastest speed at the finish line with 344 kph. Lucky him.

skipper_G

Bang, on goes the Ultrasoft

Yeah they could have gone one step further and brought the hypersoft instead of the soft

Mike Litoris

Could be tasty again with Dan and Max!

Mike Litoris

Jesus, that's a serious gap! :eek: WTF happened there?

My god. Verstappen is just ahead on those tyres ahead of Riccardo. Great timing.

Cool_CM

And Danny Ric has to do it all over again...

Tzardine

that was inevitable

Mike Litoris

Max you ****in idiot.

Rossi IRL

Trouble incoming

skipper_G

Oh my god. That was going to happen sooner or later

Ghost Train

Max changed line twice

Typical Verstappen. :rolleyes:

Cool_CM

Fück!!!!!

dublinman1990

WTF????? That is a horrible ending for Red Bull.

kopite386

There is the safety car I think. saw that crash happening earlier, it looked like Max was opening the door for Danny Ric

Rossi IRL

Bottas going to win

Mike Litoris

Oh Jaysus Safety car!!!

TheDoctor

Well that was inevitable

Time for Bottas to pit

He's done the same several times during the race. He's a ****in joke and gets away without comment.
