Bottaa has gone, Norris holding fine, hoping Leclerc has ruined his tyres.

Bothers me that we are unable to pass Tsunoda to chase Leclerc.

So hard to follow in S2... Hard to get close enough to make a run on the main straight... The AT also has very good speed

It's crazy that these cars can't overtake even in the longest straight of the calendar. If there are no overtakes here, then where the --- else can you overtake.

We got the carnage in the end.

Hope our tyres hold. There seems to be no warning!!

The race will finish under Safety Car... P7 and P9... Not great, but both cars n the points and Leclerc dropping from Pole to 5th and Carlos dropping behind Lando is not a bad result after yesterday’s qualifying... A shame that we couldn’t get Yuki on track

It is a bad result in terms of Danny cause he was in front of Sainz and he lost that position.

Red Flag now... Will it be restarted with 3 laps to go?

Red flag. Free tyre changes and 2/3 lap charge to the end? Could just call it on safety grounds.

That is the result of today's Formula 1. Cars that are hard to pass even in a huge straight and only one tyre manufacturer and everyone are doing their prayers not to get any tyre blowups.

Pace wasn't so bad. Several cars were within an inch of each-other. But apparently these cars suck at keeping up through S2. The long straight is useless because you drop back massively before you arrive at it. Aston got the strategy on point with Vettel today. Maybe McLaren should have tried to go late as well, but hey, they didn't have the power of hindsight when they made the decision.

On the other hand, we might actually get a 2-lap race here after the red flag. Kind of worried. The result right now, while not amazing, it's certainly not bad either considering the circumstances. Would be a shame to lose out.

I hope we get 3 laps of hard racing now, we can get a place or two in the best circumstances.
