Not my opinion, just relaying what commentary said. He used the pit entry lane because he ran out of space.

Verstappen on new inters
Don't think so as you could argue Hamilton pushed him wide rather than him running wide.
Lewis has to pit now.
Mazepin did as well to be fair.
Vettel on slicks, not the best idea

Any rivers that I can report?
Don't think so. If anything Lewis pushed him off. They should just let this go in my opinion.
Vettel brave or daft ?
Understatement of the year
Vettel throws slicks on and immediately bins it.
What was the need?

Daft
Yeah sounds fair enough, seems to be what they're doing as well
Amazing the impact the wrong tires have on an F1 car
Vettel
Slicks for Vettel is madness
Leclerc is staying out, guessing Lewis will do the same thing as well.
All the data they have available and all the experienced professionals involved in the decision and someone still makes the call to go with tyres that can't even be driven at pitlane speed. You have to wonder how the feck that happens.
Do they have to pit even if they don't need to switch the compound?

Are Mercedes taking a massive gamble with this aging inters , can he finish the race and on the podium ?
Replay of the Gasly penalty, looks harsh given he was sandwiched
Unfortunately this has been quite a dull race
Lewis pitting
Simple answer is No.
Think Hamilton is right. No point pitting now and definitely finishing fifth, surely better to try and make it to the end in fourth.
I think he’s 14 seconds ahead of Perez, just stay out and stay one position behind Verstappen and don’t lose the points.
Fake pitting is where it's at
Lewis asking why , understandable, he is the one out there driving.
Lewis is not getting a podium , but if he can finish 4th and Max 3rd,. I think he and Mercedes will be happy with that.
Leclerc having a low key brillant race at the front
Would love it if he held on. Doesn''t look likely.
Lewis saying slicks is not far off, that would make for an epic last few laps.
Leclerc's race engineer is amazingly unhelpful.
Max with problems ?
Lewis on his ancient tyres being considerably quicker than Max on new ones is fascinating
Ferrari need to commit to this in the same way Mercedes have, just stay out there!
Can Lewis take Max with his really old inters ?
