    I wouldn’t be surprised to see Vettel get third.

    Merc pace has been off on both cars but in particular on the 'upgraded' Bottas one.

    Ricc is catching Hamilton but a bit less than needed. Then Vettel is catching much quicker!

    I don't normally venture on here, but just wondering if Martin/Crofty might just mention at some stage what a brilliant job Vandoorne is doing today.

    A safety car would make it tasty about now. :)

    Vettel has done brilliant today. You'd think that had Kimi started he could have won here. That Ferrari pace is mega.

    He would have won it with ease I think. Vettel also has a brand new engine.

    Vettel will only get a chance at Ham, if he passes Ricciardo quickly.

    Vettel's tyres will be starting to get a bit tired now, but still he's got a lot of pace in the bag to push forward with.

    I think the edge from Vettel’s tyres have gone.
