    Raikkonen's gap in the race is now 10 seconds. Hamilton is probably going into the pits. His rear tyres are getting worn out.

    His rears were like melted cheese, they had to pit him again. This could be a cracking finish if he's determined to fight for the win

    Mercedes could blow this now. Too late to pit now.

    You were saying? 18 laps on softs might not be enough.

    From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.

    Bottas is nearly a roadblock for all the other drivers at this stage .... letting Hamilton passed twice in one race ...

    If Hamilton catches verstappen and vettel stays fifth he will be champion

    Hamilton is now 3rd after passing Bottas. Raikkonen is now in trouble with his soft tyres.

    Would there be any chance of Hamilton being happy with 3rd and taking the championship or would he want to win at all costs ?

    If it stays like that he would need to finish just once ahead of vettel to win the championship in the last three races.

    Hamilton to finish second. Vettel in Forth. Everyone celebrates Kimis win. That's best scenario all round.

    I'd say there's a high probability of somebody being a bit sulky on the podium ;)

    Can't believe that Vettel has not passed Bottas yet.

    I think it might end the way it is at the moment with Hamilton in 3rd.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.
