I might have taking the piss a little there with me doing a four stop race and still winning by a margin 
well done on win mate
I was being v cautious then, to much I think
My pit stop was bad, every ****ker took me. I was in 2nd! They put a new nose on but how far i dropped back was stupid

The pit stop only takes ten seconds off you because the out lane cuts the first corner out. I slowed them down for you after my first stop as I bumped off the track. The pressure then got to you but you were back in third and I held Hamilton up for you so you got second prior to the stops happening.

I was 28secs up on my second stop, 17secs after so I stopped again. I was then 7.5secs up but got that back up to 12secs within two laps so went for a fourth
I also picked up a fastest lap of the race on my out lap after the third stop
the last fastest lap you got i was getting it half way round the track but then before id hit finish line youd got it
Im cautious on these brakes but grow into the tracks with them as race goes on

Pretty much what I was doing before. Raced all the tracks enough now to be able to get into it pretty quick

I should have started at the back on that last track. this is the problem for me, I don't know the track by the name, just know after qualifying so don't have time to have a think

That 2nd stop buggered you up but just saw 30sec pen?
Wasn't the stop that buggered me up, it was me. I went in at the end of the second lap so that I would come out the pits mid-raced (ie give some cars to race with). However, I got tangled up and got a penalty straight away. This made me try that bit harder and in the end, too hard as I clipped two cars when overtaking and spun them
Still, it would have been close between me and you if I'd pitted a couple of laps later for first stop but I think you would have have still. Another lap and I would have caught you

I know all about that
Yeah you were gaining, I kept taking wrong line on the fast chicane that ends with awkward corner before the straight and went well wide couple of times there. Last lap i went into it a bit slower

Did you know (via pit crew) I had a penalty?
When I overtook Hamilton it was on on the inside of one of the fast swooping bends. I was extremely tempted to "run wide"
Decided to race on because the pits were telling me I'd come out in eleventh if I pitted and I guess a stop was about thirty seconds at Silverstone. I had two laps left to make up a couple more places, managed one
