Fully expecting Lando to focus on covering Max going into T1/T2 - so I think there's a good chance we'll have Hamilton leading by the time we get onto that first straight. The McLaren is definitely quicker than any other car this weekend so I'm not sure Lando should be too worried if he initially loses the lead to Hamilton, but he'd be much more concerned if he ended up behind Max.
At the same time, Max hasn't got anything to lose. He can put himself into that 'danger' position alongside Lando at T1 and put the ball in Lando's court as to whether he fights it and risks a crash or lets him go.
Funny all the years this race has been going there's only about 2 things I remember from them. Crashgate and the epic crash at the start the year it rained just before lights out!
