Red bull using Perez to test hards!

 

Far worse than the pitstop for Ferrari is the complete lack of pace.

Even on twisty circuits, they are miles off Red Bull now.

 

Safety car!

 

Here come the pit stops

 

Not as it turns out. A strange one.

 

Should of been a vsc there

 

I wonder if tsunoda undid his belts when thought tyres were not fitted?

 

Charles is going to be annoyed big time.

 

I wondered that. The commentators seemed focussed on whether they were covering a tyre error, but your theory was the more likely for me.

 

What on earth was that? A little suspicious coming from the RB Junior team.

 

Looks like a great strat call from merc. Fingers crossed it will give us a good 23 laps.

 

Thought that myself.

Pulls over but no safety car thrown do the go round. Fiddle and send him back out to try again. Very very odd.

In the end this is fascinating now cos verstappen has the lead but the slower tyre.

Race on.

 

Safety car!

 

Payback?

 

Gotta admire RBR and their decisiveness.

 

Red Bull had to pit or Mercedes would have. Definitely a bit of Karma to get the second safety car. Very much game on.

 

The medium would go off so max should have stayed with the hard.

 

Bottas helping he's old team there, could of parked it off the track there.

 

What have Merc done? Maybe just giving then 2 chances of the win?

 

Now Russell pits. That going to expose Hamilton
