    Bottas will get 3rd here, still only 8 seconds between Alonso and Bottas and 3 seconds between Perez and Bottas.

    Looks to me that red bull have complete messed up perez here.

    Alonso showing the tyre savers will do well here. 1 stop for sure and so bottas should easily one stop from where he is and take 3rd.

    2 seconds min per lap car helps even an early braker. Imagine where russell would be right now in this car.

    Perez lost every aspect of under cut due to vettel.

    Perez should have been charging while alonso was tyre managing. Poor red bull.

    Bottas has 3rd sown up

    This is a decent track due to turn 1
    Inside line has camber and load of grip and people are able to follow and pass.

    Must be just whingers that think you cant pass here ;)

    Hamilton should cruise this ow bar reliability issues so it's just down to how aggressive verstappen wants to be with his engine and tyres.

    Perez 20 seconds behind bottas.

    Must clear alonso asap.

    Bottas must push now or pit now.

    Alonso off the final corner is mighty.


    Perfect racing. Niether touch. Both push each other to the lint and even off.

    Nobody had a whinge.... strange.

    Bottas needs to push hard now. Has less than a pit stop in hand and both have to stop.
