Has anyone else noticed the Ferrari customer PU seems to smoke on over run?? Almost looks like steam coming out near exhaust.

They all do. Must have a massive oil pan in there.

 

[SgtBhaji]

Need a fast forward for the race now.

Fark

ferrarri playing safe goes wrong...Hope the mechanic is better soon.

 

[ched999uk]

Pit stops seem to be getting worse this year. Have they changed the nut system or just rushing too much. FIA might need to do something.

 

[Julius Caesar]

Awful to see that. Utter shambles for Ferrari to release him.

 

[ched999uk]

Hammer time?

Trying to find those extra hundredths of a second I guess.

They didn't even get the left rear off, let alone get the new one on!!! Terrible system that triggered a release. Kimi got green light to GO!

 

[Big Ern]

hmm, Alonso on the mediums could get 4th

It's probably the cheapest time gain they can make, but also the most risky.

 

[ched999uk]

Bottas needs to push Vettel to use up his tyres.

 

[ched999uk]

Maybe not!! But super softs might give him some great opportunities.

Or not

Bottas needs to push Vettel to use up his tyres.

He’s waiting for Ham to come and overtake him.

 

[Julius Caesar]

Vettels pushing now trying to get the margin to Lewis. I think he's going to pit.

 

[ched999uk]

He’s waiting for Ham to come and overtake him.

But that only gets Lewis 2nd. If Bottas could push Vettel Merc could have a 1 2.

 

[ched999uk]

Gasly and Erricson doing well.

 

[ched999uk]

Sounds like Merc don't know what setting Lewis is using? Seems strange unless telemetry is down?

 

[SgtBhaji]

Vettel is going to get this either way I think. The Mercs will be sitting ducks if he pits.
