    George needs to calm down as he can get Perez on track.

    Maybe Ferrari didn't think the tyres would last, that would've been a long stint on blistered mediums. Getting 5th and a point for fastest lap may be their best possible result.

    Pretty boring race overall.

    Track too narrow with largely the one line and take drs off and nobody passes imo.

    Ferrari have absolutely messed this up twice.... again.

    As predicted pre quali.

    Ferrari on pole but red bull win.

    Hamilton gets another podium by simply driving round quickly and un fussed.

    I’ve no idea what data the Ferrari team look at but it’s just embarrassing.

    At least their drivers own up to their mistakes- it’s high time their team did

    I'm pretty sure now he has lost more race winning opportunities than won in his career. Its a big big flaw he needs to overcome to be a WDC
