Russell won’t catch those McL’s. Commentators hyping it.
It's only a 17 s gap with 5 laps left.

It's all to play for!

Sergio being lapped by Max and out of the points while driving the most dominant car in recent history is mind boggling.....

Edit: McLaren with the balls to actually make the call best for the team instead of whatever it is Merc have going on.
Which once again shows that its not the most dominant car in history. It's a good car, best of the season for sure, but not a car that consistently draws in a free pitstop margin (as others in the past did).
It shows how average Perez his. I think peak Bottas would've done a far better job in it (few pole and few wins probably)

Drivers seem to be really struggling with the heat. Don’t remember this at Bahrain or Abu Dhabi even. Why is this event different?

He isn't racing his teammate, so he doesn't care!

So Norris is 5s off Max despite being +16s off him after clearing traffic on lap ~20. RB are not so quick this weekend

I genuinely think NOR would have had the race pace if he hadn’t ballsed up his qualifying

Perez must have a problem we're not aware about.
