It’s amazing how Perez manages to be so consistent. He’s like a Swiss watch.

The VCARB (Yuki) was nearly in the back of Max off the start. Glad it was a clean start.

I know it’s early, but this is seeming like it’s going to be a bad one.

Leclerc looking feisty. Might Zhou finally get a point today, surely his best chance so far?

That side-by-side between Leclerc and Russell did look awesome.

Alonso pits end of lap 4 to get rid of the soft tyres. Seems like it was a Ferrari worthy strategy.

Gasly pit radio - So our front energies are looking good, rears are our concern.

 

[Flibster]

Verstappen pit radio - Pace up front is a 38.5. Just keep up the management Max.

 

[Stu999]

Hamilton race pace looks decent. Interesting to see where he ends up.

 

[Flibster]

Piastri radio - The ride is not great at all.

 

[Mr Jack]

Leclerc struggling. Has he got an issue, or has he got training? edit Stopped already, must be tyres.

 

[imtoooldforthis]

Leclerc the tyre murderer. 9 seconds lost in 2-3 laps ???

 

[Flibster]

So the Mercedes is both fast, and having good tyre life?

Whats going on?
