Even with the DRS in the Tow Lewis doesnt really gain any time at all
So far Leclerc has had full drs or slipstream on almost every lap since the pitstop. Maybe with 3-4 laps without a backmarker, with now no one actually ahead, he may have a shot.

Though now Sainz causing a yellow flag on the straight. Why he left the pitstops I don't know.

I mean, he's absolutely ruined two Monza's in a row with spins, he's done at Ferrari. Giving him 30mil a year to do these kinds of mistakes is insane.

Easy for Leclerc now with the hard tyres, Mercedes should've went for the hards then its the battle of wear but now its a Monaco situation all over again with Lewis on the softer tyre

Leclerc only has to keep tidy in the corners and the Mercedes can't pass him, even with DRS. That Ferrari is soooo fast in a straight line. Reminds me of times past when people were complaining that Mercedes were only fastest because they had the best engine... :lol:

If Ham stayed out longer and put mediums on later, he'd win. Bottas is fundamentally slower as a driver but he's gaining on those two, if Ham waited 8 laps to pit he'd be half a second a lap faster now.

Will Bottas be told to stay in position?

Team orders incoming when Bottas closes up?
Not for nothing, Rosberg's Championship is the only thing that lends credibility to Hamilton's recent success. Otherwise, he'd just be the guy who's had the best car. — bhall II

Stewards won't penalise a leading Ferrari at Monza. Never going to happen. :roll:

And Hamilton the hypocrite. Calls for tough racing, but only if he's not at a disadvantage. Hallelujah
get real man.

He said on the radio he wasnt left enough room. stating a fact.
And I can recall so many times when Hamilton did not leave enough space. Wasn't an issue for him back then.

Charles cracked there but probably got away with it, Mercedes should surely let Bottas have a go in a bit because of the tyre situation
