Much better stop for Lando, thank god! Really want him to take the win, being a race winner would reflect his calibre.
Bet the McLaren boss are happy to see Norris' stop go smoothly
Come on Norris, glad he had a good stop, really want him to win
This is between Lando and Hamilton for the win.
No dont win this race Lewis 
OK in hindsight maybe Mercedes did OK on the pit strategy 
Agreed. Especially if Red Bull are inexplicably going for a 2 stop with max.
I can’t see Lewis getting past Lando

I refuse to give them credit. They got lucky
Slow stop by RIC was key for HAM
Crucial early passes for Hamilton. He will catch Lando but I reckon he won’t get past.
No dont win this race Lewis
This, he can be 2nd, but I want Lando to win.
Unfortunately I think Hamilton is winning
Hamilton getting past quickly
It’s great to see Mclaren back with a good car. Very likeable drivers too
It's looking like Hamilton is chopping in to the gap. I think you're right.
Hamilton and Vertsappen basically crossed in the pits and Lewis now has a 10s gap. He’s passed brilliantly since the pit
Same, come on Norris
The Mclaren has suddenly become a decent car, its so bizarre! So difficult to overtake recently.
Haas retiring Schumacher as I assume they’re bored and want to beat the traffic
They've been getting stronger for a couple of years, and the powertrain change has certainly made a difference. Also this and Monza are very friendly for their car, they hate long sweeping corners like in Netherlands.
This is killing the impact of Max’s fresh mediums. Almost 20s behind Lewis now
Toto trying to put a rocket up Bottas
Come on Leclerc hold Lewis off to keep him away from Lando
Come on Leclerc hold Lewis off to keep him away from Lando
His race engineer has the most soothing voice I've ever heard in the paddock
lovely isn’t itBottas is basically doing nothing. Just doesn't seem able to overtake anything despite being in a better car.
Shocking pit stop for Perez
I thought that then, when leclerc came out of the pits he could’ve fought for the place but seemed to show no interest in doing so
Just seems happy to loop around without actually doing anything.
What's happened to Red Bull's pit stops? They used to be absolutely supreme at them.
Here comes Lewis, come on Lando please hold him off!
Lewis has a long time here to get past. This is for the win.
Alonso overtaking Max?!
Alonso overtaking Max?!
The changes to the pit release rules seem to have thrown them
Oh no Mazepin coming up
Max will have to pit again I think. He's going to lose a lot of pace on these with 14 laps left.
Seems inevitable. Lewis looks on it as good as the McLaren is in a straight line. Can only see Lewis taking this
Oh no Mazepin coming up
Can he hold up Lewis please
Missed last 20 mins - how on earth is Hamilton 20 secs ahead of Sainz?
Not this time. Both smoothly through.Rain in 10 laps
