Who’s going to have the balls to go slicks first soon?

I guess Red Bull could use Perez as a test seeing that he’s miles back… Then again they’ll probably only learn that Perez isn’t good enough.

Verstappen pit radio - Max, weather update, heads up. Expect a short rain cell, duration 5 minutes in around 15 laps.

 

[Finners]

Not sure what Haas are playing at, should have used hulk to make a gap for magnussen to drop into like mag had to do a few races back. Magnussen would be 7 or 8th now if they had done that.

Yep sounds about right! Horner about to rip that contract up

Russell's tyres looked a bit angry in the middle of the rears.

 

[Hawk Tuah]

All that hard work from K-Mag undone by that pit stop. :X

Don't get it. Would be better letting the wets wear to slicks.

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

This is what we want though. Not too much rain, just a bit every so often to ruin everyone's perfect strategy.

He lost at least five places when they clown shoed the pit stop.

Definitely getting noticeably closer.

Still need drs to overtake it seems

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

I really do not like Mercedes, but it would be pretty good to get a George win here today.
With Norris not giving up yet, we could have a good fight to the end. Not too often we say that.

 

[Flibster]

Norris pit radio - Start thinking about dry tyre. How far away and which one?

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

A lot of time lost if you're going off that dry line I guess.

Race control - Verstappen time 1:29.256 deleted - track limits turn 2 lap 17

Race control - DRS Enabled

 

[Flibster]

Verstappen pit radio - There you go. DRS is enabled. I'll leave you to work on that one

 

[utajoker]

Someone gamble for slicks

 

[SpartaP]

This is great, the uncertainty is so good. Come on Norris

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

If Verstappen can just close the gap, as he is doing, to Russell and take Norris with him. That'd be lovely.
