Alonso mechanical issue and K Mag and Lewis needing to still put, we could luck into a handful of points here

Yep sadly, because it was seemingly going well with the strategy.

A shame but at least we are in the midfield. Hopefully the team solves a couple of issues and we jump ahead to top of midfield.

Yeah, unless parts are completely broken and they need to take stuff out from the allowance pool, I don't really mind DNF-ing considering the lack of pace at this stage of the season.

There is a real possibility Lando might finish 7th here after Lewis' pitstop. Fingers crossed everything goes well now.

I really dislike VSC. See no point to it at all. It doesn't improve racing.

Why would they open pitlane entry and not cancel VSC?

Norris gaining on Ocon.

It's not a lockup guys - it's trying to get other guy to lose DRS.

Whatever happens with McLaren this year, these cars are creating some great racing.

Lando has a shot at 6th here! Pulling away from Gasly too.

Lando up to 6th! Would be a fantastic result.

Edit: Ocon got him back!

Yeah, totally unexpected. They had much better pace with the hards.

Too bad Lando couldn't snap 6th.

Good recovery from Bahrain. I feel that part of the bad result there was a risky alternate strategy they took there.
