    Was gonna say hopefully Perez is just minding tyres but aside from Monaco really there's no point in trying an overcut.

    This race is such a procession after a few laps. DRS is of not much use and barring rain or an error by someone, it's pretty boring.

    The gap between the onboards and wide shots is ridiculous. Looks like they changed focus each time they cut away from an onboard.

    Only hope is Verstappen timing the undercut well. After that can turn off.

    You'd wonder how much the Sky lads are watching,

    Russell passed Latifi quite a while before they mentioned it, then saying the McClaren tyres are looking good while an on-board of Lando shows probably the worst looking front left we have seen so far.

    McLaren are flying comparatively though.

    They are, but I'm sure Brundle was talking about the tyres.

    Will be interesting to see.....I was about to say how Danny Ric does, and that undercut has done them the world of good.

    Sainz hangs on longer than anyone else and gets passed. No benefit to minding tyres. Just a nonsense.

    So the undercut is working, can see the gap between Max and Bottas there,

    How is it going to affect Hamilton, soon to be seen.

    I was looking at the times and I thought Verstappen had got under 25s. Great out-lap from Max

    Game on again, a quicker pitstop than Max but Lewis still comes out behind.

    Bono is so cringe, even when he's breaking bad news he does it in a chirpy voice, as if he's hoping to disarm Lewis from going off on one

    If Verstappen goes handy now he could bring Perez back into play for the end of the race. But he looks like he closing up rapidly on Perez. Perez only just gonna get out ahead of Norris at this rate.
