    Max wins this easily I think, he just seems untouchable in situations and conditions like this

    This'll be the Safety Car that rescues the Slick runners

    Safety car, they'll all go on slicks and the Ferraris are even more fucked

    Perez has pitted 3 times and is somehow ahead of Hamilton still who hasn't pitted once

    Yep - as per Sam, they are at the very least just as fucked. Inter runners now on the right tyre.

    At least Norris / the Ferraris have a slim chance of points now though... Until the SC they had no hope

    Lewis has been totally screwed.... on old tyres. They never even boxed him!

    I just love this circuit. Proper track that works for these cars. Come on Petronas and the Malay Government get the chequebook out!

    Crazily only halfway through the race, and somehow Hamilton is on the oldest tyres and less than 30 seconds off the lead

    All we need now is a nice downpour in about 10 laps time

    Sticking my neck out, but without the tyre cock up Lewis could have been in it for the win today.

    Shame we can't go full SC there, but Albon has stopped close enough to a marshal's post so makes sense

    Pitting Max is a choice

    Feel like we're wasting laps by not just going to SC, if they cant push Albon's car back

    Ok Mercedes box too now, and Hadjar too, so back to the status quo

    2 laps down and they still haven't got the tractor out... They might have to throw a SC here

    Sigh!! - What a waste of laps

    Again though just throw that straight away, so indecisive from the directors

    I hate the lapped cars rule, always takes fucking ages to implement 
  • sam3110
    sam3110 Posts: 24,935
    Like right now Perez is told to unlap himself and he's about 40 seconds behind the safety car, if he's allowed to go full beans to unlap, why can't they all just go full beans and we restart the racing
  • sam3110

    What would make a tonne more sense is they force the drivers to all go pitlane speed limit for half a lap behind the safety car, apart from the lapped runners, that way we lose less laps

    Russell has absolutely no luck!!
  • sam3110
    sam3110 Posts: 24,935
    And now Russell has pulled off to the side so we won't get a restart

    That was stupid by Norris actually, going that fast into the first corner behind the safety car

    At least now Mercedes can just announce Antonelli is their number one for rest of season.

    How the hell have Ferrari managed to get P3 and P4
  • MarcusH26

    Absolutely cracking race. Alonso in the points with the Aston Tractor and Ferrari get P3&4 with a sensationally bad strategy call.

    Hamilton drops down to 15th, finishes 3rd and Verstappen still gets driver of the day! 

    Pissed off!
