What did the long run data look like in Practice?

On face value for Seb to be within 3 tenths in quali bodes very well given Ferraris race pace on most Sundays. If any rain comes I think Ricciardo will win this- that Red Bulls front end is terrific and the less grip there is the bigger his chances become.
Ferrari seem to be quickest in S3, so with DRS on the long straight, a good exit from the last corner, could maybe get Vettel ahead of the Mercs! And also given the starts of the Merc are a bit iffy he could get them there too. I don't think it'll be too far off to say Vettel is in the mix for the win.
 
At least with Perez it's understandable. Easily one of the top drivers this year at his home track. At least for once it's not every single thing about Mercedes and Hamilton...
 
Really looking forward to this. So Hamilton will probably have a five second lead by the end of the third lap.
 
Surprised Bottas coming in when he just said graining not getting worse. I was hoping Williams would be good given their top speed.
 
Need some rain and a run from the back from Vettel.

Can't make my mind up on who was a fault for that one.

Vettel's fault in my opinion but not penalty-worthy. You have to leave room in turn one, if it had been later in the race and Ricciardo had just tucked his nose inside then it would be Ricciardo's fault, but you can't expect him to just duck out when he's got 15 other cars behind him.
 
Any chance Vettel will go to the end and end up in the points? Would it be worth it given his car is probably better than the rest around him.
