    Don't think he has any new ss or us. Plus they might not last to the end if he pushes.

    Now, how are Kimis tyres?
    If I was Hamilton I'd take it home slowly, no point trying to catch and pass Verstappen, not worth it. Still beating Vettel.

    Agreed. Take 3rd and move on to the next race.

    Doubt he will do that though.

    Plot twist. Both Ferraris tyres die in the closing laps.

    The softs just look bad today

    I think if Lewis gets 2nd and Vettel stays 5th Lewis has won championship.
    Also nice for kimi to win

    Bottas struggling to keep Vettel behind despite fresher tyres. B Class again I’m afraid.

    Verstappen another terrific drive - personally think he and Hamilton are just pure natural speedsters.

    Bottas hasn’t had the best of weekends.

    Hamilton has the tyres and the engine I’m afraid. Would love to see Verstappen catch Kimi because that would be an incredible drive.

    Hamilton will breeze them I think
