    Could watch Russell, Norris and Albon battle all day. Great stuff.

    I think the three lads at the back have decided just to hang back and have a little race between themselves.

    Things could get pretty difficult for Hamilton now

    2nd place will now be 10 seconds closer to Lewis at the end

    Sounds like he will be serving both together at his pitstop.

    In which case currently it is reckoned it would leave him outside of the top 10 - so still some work to do for him.

    First thing when he gets out of the car though is he is going to look for the rulebook.

    Are mercedes now trying to secure the race win.

    Bottas being told to close the gap at the same time Lewis being told to up the pace.

    Surely Hamilton will be close to a race suspension now with accumalation of penalty points. ?

    "Valtteri close the gap"

    It was in the Race Director's Notes. He probably wasn't listening and was on his phone tweeting about BLM.

    Who does the race director think he is trying to segregate practice starts and confine them to certain areas.

    Penalty points aren't awarded for every penalty, far as I know Hamilton currently has none

    Hamilton during the 10 seconds wait:

    "This is just ridiculous, man".

    Yes. Rules are ridiculous.

    He's come out in 11th ahead of Raikonnen.

    Probably the last time that Seb gets to battle with Lewis for position in a Ferrari.

    This won't take long...

    No point Hamilton complaining when he has the talent and the car to get back up through the field

    Yep you're right, would have helped if I wasn't looking at penalties from 2018. Brain fart on my part

    There’s some great irony in the driver accused of making the sport boring is now being relied on to liven up this race.

    He’s still guaranteed to get 3rd at a minimum barring anything unusual happening

    Expect lewis to jump on his scooter straight after the race and angrily scoot down the pit lane to the stewards office.
