    One does not simply pass Max without a visit to the pits.

    Looking at replays of Max vs Carlos looks more like 50/50 as Carlos squeezed him and then he bounced off kerb into Carlos. Maybe Max should have backed off but when has a racing driver ever backed off???

    he'd lost the corner and knew it, but Max is Max, and finishing the race doesn't come into the equation.

    It's going to be one of those races where one from Ferrari and one from Mercedes will get screwed, and the other 2 will run off.

    Tyres on last legs now, who will pit first from front? Not looking good for gap to slot back into.

    Well lets see what happens here, any of the front runners going to be able to 1 stop and leave Hamilton (and whoever else 2 stops) chasing.

    Leclerc still in the driving seat here but dependent on Ferrari being able to do a strategy.
