    can we please just drop the flag on this one.

    it is so ****ing dull.

    hamilton complaining about low grip cos he's going so slow his tyres are cold.

    They could drive around for 2 more hours here without using up tyres

    Vettel is perhaps lucky the pace is so slow and he can nurse his tyres for third instead of losing a ton of places stopping again.

    Without Perez and Sirotkin it would have been so boring.
