    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.

    Not sure you want to be hearing your engineer saying "not sure what happened there"

    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.

    Haven't heard Max that agitated in the middle of a race like that before.

    Are we looking at a two stopper for Max, Lewis in Bottas? Perez to go long and one stop it?

    Interesting to see what Bottas does here (or if he does anything) - he's setting fastest sectors

    Can anyone explain to me the benefit of leaving Perez out losing 2-3 seconds a lap? Are the extra 2 laps of tyre life gonna make that much difference at the end to make up for 5 seconds lost?

    Imagine they asked Lewis to let Bottas through, no chance.

    Should be 1 stop all around. Harder fresh tyres on less fuel, easily doable.

    Good opportunity for Bottas here with Lewis not having DRS on Max.

    Let's see if he'll take some of his frustration out.

    Bottas is a bit closer than you’d like.

    Great stuff by mclaren and vettel is showing that Baku wasn’t a fluke. Class is permanent, form is temporary as they say.
