Aaaand Raikkonen pits. 21 laps on the super soft tyres.

New soft tyres for him too.

ferrari will want ham to catch rosberg so they might take each other out.

Not going to happen looking at the current pace.

 

[Flibster]

Kvyats day getting worse. 5 second penalty for speeding in the pit lane.

 

[Flibster]

Errrm.. Crofty...

53 - 38 isn't 25...

What's a SC window?

I assume another pitstop under a SC (switching to SS)?

Presumably not in sc window. means don't pit if SC.

But why tell him to go faster as a consequence?

I think it refers to the gap to Vettel where you can pit under SC and come back out in front.

Ferrari would just do the opposite to what you do if not in that window.

 

[jonneymendoza]

Rosberg has this in the bag

Awesome driving from ric.

 

[drunkenmaster]

That was some weak weak stuff from Bottas.... took up position just past midway but into the braking zone he moved wide against a car and driver with awesome late braking. If he'd just positioned himself a little more down the middle he'd still be ahead.

To pull out enough time for a sc stop if one happens, Ferrari on two stop so they wouldn't stop even if there is a sc. And persumabably Rosberg probably wouldn't want to wither.
Where Hamilton would like to stop for fresh tyres, zero gap when sc goes in and can challenge rosberg.

 

[UTmaniac]

Bottas saves them both and losses a place.

 

[jonneymendoza]

Botas lmao

Depends on who is behind the ferraris. I see it this way.

If not in the window, Hamilton stopping loses him track position to Ferraris not stopping.

Alternatively if not in window and Hamilton doesn't stop, Ferraris take free set of SS.

If in window as you said, Hamilton can take free set of SS himself.

edit:

I can't see Mercedes splitting the SC strategy between Rosberg and Hamilton.

LOL at Alonso laughing about Grosjean might come back towards him!

Good work by Rosberg this race. Can see the WDC challenge going right to the end.

 

[.:MBK:.]

Buttons graphics broken or does he not use full throttle?

 

[deuse]

What a boring race.
