mclaren with a 2.4 stop and not even the fastest of the day.

 

[Jono8]

He's only stopped once and hasn't run the option tyre.

still been keeping up with the red bull and Ferrari and he still has the fastest tyre left to go on for a bit.

Riccardo just retired, broken exhaust. Fred is catching Kimi.

 

[Guerrilla]

Great move there

 

[Flibster]

Hamilton only managed 11 laps on that set of primes.

 

[gilchrd]

3rd pit for Lewis.

 

[Jono8]

Mercedes not so fast in the race

 

[Freakbro]

Weird, that really didn't work for Hamilton...

 

[Mr Men]

Alonso needs to pass Sutil very quickly to have any chance.

 

[Jono8]

Weird, that really didn't work for Hamilton...

because the car has been dog slow in the race (compared to the other front runners)

 

[gilchrd]

Hold him up Sutil.

 

[Mr Men]

Alonso can smell the win

Yep, really doesn't look like the Merc has the race pace of RBR/Ferrari/Kimi and the pit stop strategy doesn't seem to have helped.

 

[Jono8]

Hamilton Has made no impression on the front five since his stop...
