    In hamilton's earlier days he might have but he has kept himself out of trouble these days...like he did when trying to make the pass on Max...he knows Max is kind of a nut job so he kept as fsr as possible...

    As above- HAM and Bottas surely have to one stop?

    Max equally has no new ultras available to go onto for a second stop. (Does have a spare set of super soft though)

    Two stop options available for Ricciardo, Raikonnen and Vettel.

    Given the pit straight layout it must be a huge time loss to pit here

    Ricciardo Webber'd the start a bit there. Wasteful after all that effort for pole.

    It's also a shame that with all the enthusiasm for Formula 1 here, that the circuit is so ****.

    Thought he'd be reeling him in quicker than that.

    It's pretty ****, this is.

    Safety Car to bunch them up is needed, or else Max wins this by half a minute lol

    Sounds like Hamilton is going to 7 stop this race.

    Without crappy tyres, this could be a fab race.

    Verstappen the only one with another set of the "race" tyre left, the others are potentially in trouble - possibly 3 stopping? Or just eek tyres out doing slow laps...

    Hamilton should let Vettel go and send him up the road to his inevitable doom with Max.
