14 laps for Hamilton on the hard, 16 for Verstappen.

So much for the hard having a extended race life

Pretty sure Lewis just pitted to undercut the Ferraris.

Mercedes just in a class of its own this weekend. That car is mighty quick round here.

So all Mercedes need to arrange is to have all the F1 races held in winter.

Russell pit radio - So information George, if there was a safety car, we would only have the soft tyre to go to.

Zhou really getting the life out of those hard tyres. They were ancient.

Almost made it to half distance. 23 laps.

Hamilton super fast but surely his tyres won’t hang on.

Flibster · 2024-11-24T07:03:32+0000

Hamilton in NFG mode

Emlyn_Dewar · 2024-11-24T07:03:33+0000

I guess they (sauber) were really hoping for a safety car.

imtoooldforthis · 2024-11-24T07:06:30+0000

Russell's probably just taking it easy tbh. Safety car would give us a banger finale.

Flibster · 2024-11-24T07:06:49+0000

Fastest lap for Hamilton 1:36.177 now. :eek:

Purple in S1 on the next lap too.

Emlyn_Dewar · 2024-11-24T07:07:04+0000

Perez remembering that he’s an f1 driver, and making a decent move.

Stu999 · 2024-11-24T07:07:46+0000

Perez…nuts, don’t cause a safety car.
