    Well he was told to stop the car and he was hardly going to keep going and the car possibly stop on the track.

    He was told to switch off the engine on the radio.

    I don't think so. If Charles gets past bottas quick enough then Hamilton will be under pressure on the straights.

    Hamilton completely surprised that LeClerc is behind him.

    I'd have Sainz as driver of the day, had a great start mixing it with the Mercs. Kept it clean and currently running P5.

    Again the TV focused on the wrong thing, Leclerc too far behind Bottas for a pass is deemed more interesting than the Albon pass on Sainz. At least they bothered to show a replay I suppose

    Ferrari only have themselves to blame at the end of the day. Feel sorry for LeClerc.

    No awkward moment with Vlad in the cool-down room, Charles truly was robbed today.

    I would point the finger squarely at Vettel. :(

    I wouldn’t. Nothing that he did had any impact on Leclerc. Like any F1 driver who gets a whiff of win he drove the nuts out of the car. All Leclerc had to do was keep up, I say this as a fan of Leclerc’s.

    Yes, the MGUK failure in Vettel’s car was very much to Hamilton’s advantage but this was not Vettel’s fault.

    Ferrari really lost out here today. Went from P1 & P2 to just a P3.

    In fairness to Seb he got a 4 second lead early on in the race and didn't think it'd be fair for Ferrari to swap if he managed to get that far ahead.

    Good race from Albon, great to see him making a name for himself in Redbull.

    Classic Grosjean crashing again.
