The Red Bull is much quicker.. It's going to be a miracle if Hamilton is able to hold this for the rest of the race.

Bottas is down in 10th and 30 seconds off the lead.. No use whatsoever

Wow. Verstappen going for the undercut already.

 

[evilwebby]

Lap 10. that's very early. Lewis should go long imo.

Mercedes has v limited options now.

Max is ahead, undercut worked for red bull there

 

[evilwebby]

Not sure about that from Hamilton. Should have eked out a couple more laps

Crazy call again by Merc.

Nicely executed undercut... Interesting to see how it plays out at the end of the race with tyre management.

Verstappen now has a 6 sec lead with only 4 lap older tyres.. Mercedes are snookered here

Utter crap, in no man's land. Not long enough to make a difference in tyre strat, not quick enough to prevent a gap building.

The only saving grace is that the merc is better on the harder tyre. Whether he burns them up trying to catch Max is probably the question.

Crazy call again by Merc.

They seem to be all over the place with strategy lately

 

[evilwebby]

Fresh tyres were worth 1.8s/lap

Mercedes have been caught napping. Very hard to see what Hamilton can do from here.

Hamilton is going to use up his tyre advantage getting to within 2 seconds of Max, at which point Max will just pit again and go to the end.
