What a move by Oscar. Just hope he’s not hurting his tyres too badly as it’s still a long race

Great move but I am worried for the tires to be honest, not sure if he can hold this.

The tire game is hard to call.

Likely Mclaren feels clean air is better to be in than within 1-2s of another car in dirty air.

Yes me too :/. But he can drive in the clean air which has a clear advantage regarding font tyres

Just has to hold on long enough for Perez and Leclerc to cook their tires in dirty air.

I think it's likely Norris is one stoping and others may need to do two stops? At least it seems hard that hey can do around 40 laps on hards.

Lando doing a great job keeping VER behind him. Sainz is now 5 seconds ahead.

Remember lighter fuel loads at the end. So suspect the medium will do 15 laps by then. L36 would be ideal imho

Nice work by Oscar. Hopefully we'll get a safety after lap 30.
