    I think Charles had the newer version of the Ferrari PU, so maybe they pushed too far and don't have the reliability?

    Perez needs to up his speed or they won't need team orders to give max the win

    He's got this one sown up. He'll come out 5 seconds off the lead on tyres that are 1-2 seconds faster.

    Good strategy work from Red Bull

    Red bull 1/2 confirmed.

    Max won't accept second so let's hope he takes both off.

    Perez told them to go **** themselves.

    Barely 6 laps difference on tyres.

    Verstappen spun it and that's why he is down.

    Clearly no 2.

    Nothing ruins a race like team orders deciding the winner.

    The only strategy difference between the two is red bull want one to win and the other can go **** himself.

    Karma suggests a massive engine blow.

    Only thing left is to see Hamilton take fastest lap and 6th back.

    Yes that's fastest lap and p 6 already.

    Hopefully the brat will blow his engine trying to get fastest lap back.

    Lewis being sixth and taking the fastest lap off the human bivalve, does rather make a mockery of his somewhat bizarre ask to retire the car earlier on. He shouldn’t do that.

    Russell now has the tyres but not the position. Cmon then George show something new now.

    Tyre management, pace, hard racing all shown today. Show is a big pace and pass.

    Fastest lap please.

    Hmmm bottas going backwards.

    Russell 3rd and enjoy that podium. Much deserved.
