Those who didnt pit for a new inter got screwed over. Lewis out and P13. Nasty.
Who stayed out on old inters? I thought it was Norris only? Maybe sainz

Albon showing he can drive. Could help him in negotiations with the top teams.

Not sure, too hard to track as some must have boxed 1-2 lap too early to get the final run on the timer.

Blimey. Tried to follow the tracker but must have missed that. Yikes 😬

Thank God Lewis is not fighting for a championship or i would be livid and calling for vowel's head!!

Bonno has been extremely out if sync too. Went too late in Q1 and too early in Q2. Not sure how the race can be recovered from 13th place really. And wishing for rain is a bit pointless, the overtaking seems to be rubbish at this track even in the wet.

Hamilton got new slicks and time to warm them up, strategy was ideal. I think they have him set up for dry.

Typical knee-jerk reaction. Lewis doesn't do the job despite getting new tyres. "Give me someone's head". How about no. How about some accountability from the driver.

Lewis quote: “I did two fast laps at the end and the tyres overheated. Hopefully when the car's heavier we might be able to progress forward”

Might have just been me, but an early quali exit for Hamilton crossed by mind in FP3. He was clearly struggling in the conditions and it carried on that way.
