Poll: Australian Grand Prix 2022, Melbourne - Race 3

[adam cool dude]

Alonso on mediums. Going to be interesting final few laps.

 

[.:MBK:.]

Merc to inherit a podium again?

 

[chrismscotland]

Leclerc might have the title wrapped up by the summer the way things are going

 

[Tigget]

Sigh, such a pity that fans would prefer to be petty than see some form of competition this year. Standard names as always.

 

[Irish_Tom]

Oh dear, what a shame, never mind.

 

[Mr Jack]

Another Red Bull engine failure. Don't think Max has Leclerc's pace anyway but these failures are putting it beyond doubt.

 

[SoliD]

It’s exactly the same engine until 2025. RB PT’s is currently just a brand name until its setup.

That's the joke...

 

[chrismscotland]

Penalty for Stroll - wonder if he might get another for basically pushing Bottas off the road at the re-start as well

 

[Stumble Bum]

It's hard to look past Charles running away with it this season, Sainz just hasn't been anywhere near competitive enough.

 

[chrismscotland]

Have to say - Mick Schumacher did a decent job of holding Alonso behind for a fair few laps - thought he would rip past him

 

[BlizzardX]

Still time for Lewis to get George as he is slowly gaining. Flat spotted his tyres which could make it worse.

 

[.:MBK:.]

Stronger showing from the Merc teams this weekend which fingers crossed can be progressed to get one of them out of midfield and with Ferrari/RBR

 

[BlizzardX]

It's clear that merc is setting up for the race and their pace is much faster and they're very good on the tyres. Wonder how fast they'll be when they fix the porpoising issues

 

[el_dazza]

Hamilton blaming his team for something that wasn't their fault lol.

 

[Stumble Bum]

Not sure what Hamilton is whinging about lol, nothing his team could do. It's good that Russell seems to have the measure of him.

 

[JRS]

Hamilton blaming his team for something that wasn't their fault lol.

Situation normal, I'm afraid.

Maybe he does it to key himself up, but I can't help wondering how much quicker he'd be if he just stayed off the radio and drove...

Ham was catching Russell at quite a rate, I expect the team have told him to hold position as it secures Russell 2nd in the drivers Championship to finish P3

 

[BlizzardX]

I think lewis has been told to hold station.

 

[chrismscotland]

There was no point letting them fight and possibly both going out when there's zero threat from behind. Hamilton just unlucky he was behind after the SC timing

 

[SoliD]

Yes albon! Great result
