Lando could catch Magnussen, a couple tenth faster per lap in this stint, he can get in within DRS he should be able to get him… He should also get MSC if he can mata in the pace… OCO and RUS are too far away
Hopefully Russel gets Ocon too to minimise points differential.
Now that Russell made the move on Alonso, he should be able to get Ocon (wouldn’t mind they fighting each other and messing their races a bit)

VSC gives Alonso a free pitstop, jumped Daniel.

Edit: maybe not now it's shook out.

VSC massively helped out Alonso

Track limits should have some leniency
Why? If the race notes indicate that Track Limits will be enforced in certain turns, it is up to the drivers to make sure they comply with it.

Driver’s also have to infringe track limits 3 times to get a black and white flag and a forth time to get a penalty… There is no reason to not enforce them properly.

That’s the gamble of going so long, trying to take advantage of those moments

Have in mind that Alonso is a mastermind in terms of strategy and tyre management as Jenson Button was.

Think the timing got confused, he's down in 14th. Lando looking at MAG now.

Land in within DRS this lap, he needs to make the move now if he wants to catch MSC before the end of the race

Russell overtook Ocon to help out with the fight with Alpine

Russell made the move on Ocon… Lando in within half a second of Magnussen… Not bad damage limitation so far

So sad to see McLaren go backwards yet again... Looks like the car has hit its peak, also RIC is doing absolutely nothing... we are going to be lucky if we end up in P5 at the end of the season.
Did you even watch the sprint race? Daniel was glued to Lando’s gearbox for the entire race and clearly had a bit more pace.
Soo... after a 5 second penalty, NOR managed to overtake RIC and MAG! And RIC was nowhere near him at the end... I like the guy but at this point it's obvious that Piastri (is rumors are to be believed) is a clear driver for next year...

Norris came out pits ahead of Ricciardo. Unwarranted bashing, its been a solid race from Daniel.

7th looks as good as it could be. Not a bad race though.

Daniel has been fine. No complaints this race.
