So Merc can only just get past the Ferrari on the straight with DRS open...

That's pretty impressive straight line speed from Ferrari.

Well that worked well for Hamilton! A free 5s gap.

It is. They are very slow comparatively through the corners though.

Ferrari have really ballsed this up.

Flibster · 14 Apr 2019 at 08:23

Albon in the top 10 after his day yesterday is a damn good drive.

Yup. Poor Leclerc. They have really screwed him.

Flibster · 14 Apr 2019 at 08:26

Looks like Leclerc reacted to the light going green - pulling away, then the light flickered back to red - stopped the car, then it then went green again.

Flibster · 14 Apr 2019 at 08:31

Driver of the day time?

Hamilton, Albon or Raikkonen then?

Yaayuh! · 14 Apr 2019 at 08:33

Leclerc got any softs? I’d forget Max and stick softs in soon for fastest lap for that extra point.

Mr Jack · 14 Apr 2019 at 08:34

Gasly over a pitstop behind his teammate and on course for his best result so far.

CaptainRAVE · 14 Apr 2019 at 08:35

Hamilton to even bother with fastest lap? I personally wouldn’t. Save the car.

Junglist · 14 Apr 2019 at 08:35

I don’t know who they’d switch him with though. Too soon form Albon

Flibster · 14 Apr 2019 at 08:38

And now a gearbox issue for Leclerc.
They really have royally buggered him today.

Well, Hamilton and Mercedes laughing all the way to the WCC and WDC.

Mr Jack · 14 Apr 2019 at 08:44

Lol. Gasly onto softs for a fastest lap punt.

Flibster · 14 Apr 2019 at 08:46

Gasly gets the fastest lap.

Let's hope it's a good one!

Oh well.

Wish I'd stayed in bed. ******* dreadful race.

Moto GP later on; thank **** for that!

Heh, why not.

Well, Mercedes may claim Ferrari are untouchable...but the point count currently...

All without team orders too.
