    Watching Lando fighting with Hamilton, Kimi, Vettel and Verstappen is great. Shame that the difference in car performance is so great that they just breeze by in the end.

    Kubica suddenly dropped like a stone to the back and 3 seconds behind Kvyat. I wonder did he make a mistake or is he just really really slow

    Thursday: Gonna be warm, ooh tyres!
    Friday: It's warm, tyres are going off quick
    Saturday: Oh God the tyres!
    Sunday afternoon: One stop, no problem.
    Sunday evening: Tyres could be an issue at the next race.

    Everyone's pretty much in the position they should be now, might get a pass in the pits before the end.

    In fact that scrap at the back was great. Albon passing everyone, fighting with the Haas. Russell trying to sneak in as well then immediately battling Kvyat behind him. Great stuff.

    I remember the whinging about the pirellis going off to quickly and now we are cemented to one stops.

    Yup. I find it hard to criticise Pirelli, they've pretty much ticked the boxes of what they were told to do at all times. Even when someone sets a fast lap on what are supposed to be bubble gum tyres they can still do a quarter distance with little hassle. Teams have just managed to figure it out.

    No safety car it'll be the current top 5 just.

    Have KMag as the first to retire at 25/1. Looking good so far. It'll be a hat-trick of first retirees!

    Even if that move by Ferrari had "worked" he still would have had a couple of cars between him and Bottas and lost time. Idiots.

    So, how do Mercedes-Benz use Bottas at this stage? Chase Leclerc or hold up Vettel

    Another stupid move from Ferrari. Giving up track position to Hamilton. Meaning even though he has fast tyres. He'll have to overtake Hamilton on track and he's not been very good at that.

    Vettel will easily pass Hamilton

    Hamilton should also pit nearer the end for fresh tyres and try set the fastest lap. He will finish 5th either way.




    Verstappen losing power

    Nah, sounds like it was a sensor issue which can be easily fixed inside the cockpit.

    The best race of the year by a country mile regardless of what happens in the remaining laps.

    Max will go down in history as the man that saved F1
    Following a horrendous start he doesn’t “do a Hamilton” he just gets on with it.
    Go Max!

    Yes Crofty it is great hearing joy in a Formula 1 driver's voice. Much better than someone leading from lights to flag and pissing and moaning for an hour and a half.

    Right call to pit Vettel, worth a try. 6th place could be a fight before the end. Don't mind which of the top 2 now wins.

    Great drives from both Verstappen and Vettel, Leclerc deserves the win 'thuough.

    Also, I'm starting to harbour an irrational hatred for the Dutch fans :/
