    Russell second.

    The "excuse" is a gusting tail wind at turn 4.

    Red bull immediately on to excuse the boy blunder.

    Yea looks that way now, the Mercedes is rapid down the straights, Red Bulls can't get close to them.

    Verstappen toast.

    No drs.

    That's the race over.

    Red bull have ****ed it v Russell and ferrari should canter home now.

    Perez didn't get the job done did he.

    Now they need to go for under cut to save 2nd.

    Not really. They are a second a lap slower. Perez wasn't following in the tight bits well enough.

    Imo that's a ****ed up valve or signal rather than mechanical.

    As usual Crofty displays utter ineptitude at understanding of the system.

    It snaps **** for safety reason. There's no way it's actuator imo as you'd be losing fluids. It has to be either the signal to the valve or the valve itself???

    It seems to work in drs 2 but not in drs 1 which is bizarre.
