Russell just doesn’t give in. Norris is not his fight. Interesting if Ham now closes

I told myself if ever Lewis gets close to George they're going to give George an immediate undercut and......there we go.

It's going to be close between Verstappen and Norris. Norris has the pace to win.

Norris can still win this. Making massive gains on Verstappen.

I'm afraid he lost too much time behind Russell in the first stint.

I don't see Russell getting near a podium this race on this tyre.

DRS helps a lot.

I’d rather see a Push to Pass option so Russell could have at least attempted a defense.
Everyone has DRS, you have to enable it and set it up. Not many can do it the way Max does, that's the whole point.
Russell didn’t. That’s the problem with DRS and literally why everyone else with these passing gimmicks uses push to pass.
He has a DRS too, didn't see him instantly come back with it.

Hamilton getting the better strategy, as usual. Waiting for someone to send mails to the FIA...

Nonsense. Russell eats tyres and is just generally slow on Sunday

Well, better explain to the toxic fans that things are the other way round on Saturday.

Only because of DRS and full push. Max will have the tyres nicely managed you’d think

This. With the mileage the PU’s and transmissions have to go, they are always managing, unless absolutely necessary.

For Max, it’s not necessary.
