We are getting caught by Russell but I hope it's just tyre saving.

Lando told to push for gap to Russell to cover undercut. For Russell to go one stop. Team being played by Merc.

Hmm, he's just matching pace. Russell's tyres arent going to up to a fight with Lando.

This race wasn't as close as it looks.

Shame about the brake pedal, lando pace is excellent.

It seems they're trying to talk Lando out of pushing for the win.... I think that's smart all things considered with the brake pedal.

Nobody can threaten us anymore. Congrats to both of them. Let's hope that China is just an anomaly and that the car will perform much better on other tracks.

Lando has been good on this stint. But probably needs to back off.

Would have been interesting if they both pitted one lap before, and the Russell undercut didn't happen.

McLaren make it count on the Sunday with a maximum points- very nicely done after a hectic weekend.

Dominant start to finish win from Oscar and a solid drive with big points from Lando. Would have been easier without the brake issue.

God damn it. This team is not for those with a soft heart. Screw you brakes. We didnt need that surprise at the end. Thannk god we survived. Good job to Oscar. Masterfull start and masterfull tyre handling. Fantastic start from Norris and masterfull handling of that problem.
