    Poor George deserved points today.

    Yes, he punches well above his weight and the bad luck strikes again.

    Hamilton pushing hard now. It’s starting to look a bit more like a 2 stop strategy.

    Short track with traffic everywhere, it'd be harder to catch back up here then it was in Spain or France

    Watching his helmet camera channel (with radio Comms). He was asking about his fuel levels to Bono

    Was it this track that was harsh on suspension/tyres one year? They seem to be running the bumpy kerbs very heavily.

    What's the average time lost for a pit stop round here does anyone know? If Hamilton was to pit, he has about 24 seconds gap to Perez

    Radar shows it building up to the west but won't hit the track for an hour.

    Perez nicks the fastest lap, can he catch Bottas?

    So the mercs strategy is to keep going and hope max makes a mistake.

    Not much else they can do, Bottas needs to get the finger out Perez is catching him at 2 seconds a lap nearly.

    Reckon it's gonna be like this for a while.

    Red Bull is just a much better car this season. Verstappen also not making many mistakes. As a team also not making mnay mistakes.

    As usual it will probably start raining half an hour after the race is finished.

    You know it's a dull race when they're talking about the possibility of rain that even the teams know isn't coming

    So kimi has the record using number 7 on a car. A sure sign this race is not a classic.

    Not the most entertaining race but they can’t all be exciting over a season.
