Only Ferrari is treating the tyres right it seems.

Ferrari looking after the tyres better than the others. Vettel for the win...
How do you suppose he's getting past vestappen?

Max looks ‘ok’ for now, but there is some marks showing, Kimi needs to keep him honest (a throw away low risk option for Ferrari) and then Vettel can pounce (don’t like Vet but Ferrari need to push Kimi up now :@ )

But why is not Vettel leaving Hamilton behind? Perhaps he has problems but I can't listen to any radio from Sebastian.

Really feel for Bottas but it's given us a race at least. Where was Hamilton when VSC started? Must have been near T9.

Race is Verstappens to lose... unless the tyres bowl us a reverse swing to middle stump.

One of the RedBulls has already had problems, neither Ferrari has. Suggests that Max might run in to trouble later in the race.
If you are more fortunate than others, build a larger table not a taller fence.

Nah, vestappen still pumping PBs. He's got this easy. Vettel has maybe like 1 tenth on raikkonen, not nearly enough to overtake him.

Hamilton will have to pit again and have to fight to get by Ricciardo. Hamilton to finish fifth, Vettel second or better.

Max losing time ~2s in 10 laps... shocked Ferrari haven't swapped drivers over.

They'll swap Kimi and Seb - gap down to 2 seconds now.
