So when a Red Bull gets overtaken by that brick of a Mercedes.... You may be having a bad weekend.

Doesn’t look like this strategy will work out for Perez. Probably be 10th by the time he even pits. Could be well down after the stop. Unless of course there is a safety car.

I'm sure Red Bull are hoping for a SC, otherwise why keep him out for so long. Unless they hope fresh rubber will help him make places later.

Perez must have his floor mat stuck under the throttle pedal.

They said at the start he has a new set of softs so may be wanting to wait until they can use them until the end but I think he’ll be too far back by then.

Hulkenberg radio - Grip feels **** Deg feels high

 

[KiNgPiN83]

Is it me or is Perez putting in far more effort defending against Hamilton than he did with Russell?

 

[KiNgPiN83]

Never mind.

 

[Flibster]

Hulkenberg radio - I feel like I'm having to push to keep laps, but at the same time sliding. So if there's an opportunity later, might want to take that.

Pit - Ok understood

 

[Flibster]

Leclerc pit radio - Under safety car we would lose two positions. For info. You're doing a really good job.

 

[Stu999]

Big gap Hamilton to Tsunoda (28 secs) be surprised if Perez can close that down (safety car aside).

 

[sidimmu]

Ted getting shut up by the team radio reporting the same thing XD

 

[KiNgPiN83]

Is the next race Monaco? Aka we get a look at the Red Bulls floor courtesy of Perez doing a Perez?

 

[Flibster]

Norris pit radio - Last couple of laps Leclerc tried to push on a bit...

Norris - Speak up

Pit - Leclerc tried to speed up a bit. The lap before he did a 21, last lap 20.5 so he's trying.

Russell - Yup. Me too. I'm trying and he's a lot quicker.

 

[Scam]

Ferraris coming alive a bit now?

 

[Flibster]

Piastri pit radio - Oscar, tyre update. Do you think the tyre will improve with clear air once you're through these blue flags?

Piastri - I hope so or it's going to be tricky.

 

[Flibster]

Russell radio - yeah, starting to feel pretty poor now this tyre

 

[Flibster]

Race control - Leclerc time 1:21.313 deleted - track limits turn 15 lap 47

 

[Terminal_Boy]

Ricciardo failing to impress again.

 

[Flibster]

So where is this 100% guaranteed, will absolutely happen, no question about it, safety car?
