Sainz is getting a better exit out of that last hairpin than Charles

Alpine has fcked this up badly.
Yet another race Alonso will finish behind Ocon despite being faster. Becoming a joke at this point.
I had Leclerc down for 4 or 5th, but he looks to have found something , could he get a podium ?
Yeah, it's stupid as feck, considering Alonso did his pit after 5 laps and Leclerc is struggling. I literally started watching the race before the second VSC and knew it was a stupid idea, and they still did it.
Alpine fecked this pretty badly. I don't have a clue but even I knew that was a stupid decision
I don't understand what they're saying on Sky about the hards not lasting 40 laps for Russell, Sainz and the rest of the cars who stopped on the second VSC. If Alonso can make the mediums last 29 I think they'll be aiming to go to the end.
Still needs to pit, right?
Max is saying his 24 lap hards are losing grip
What happened to Perez?
Gap still holding though at 8seconds. Mind games ?
yeah you are right, not pitted yet.
Sky are saying that Lewis has the same set up as Russell ?
Could be the reason why he is doing well.

Plan B Charles?
Stroll train..
at least they’re both still out there and one of them wasn’t sacrificed just to give the other a cheap pit stop.
Seems to have settled into a pattern now this. We're looking at the top 3 already unless there's an SC.
Smoke from Ferrari.
Latifi had a slow pit stop...
Does it really matter?
Does it really matter?
I think bar the opening could of races where we had those overtakes between max and leclerc, this has been an extremely dull season so far. I'm at the point where I genuinely have no interest in the races anymore!
Hards on Max and Lewis starting to drop
Sainz gaining quickly now
What is the point of Latifi? Other pay drivers at least occasionally challenge for points. Latifi is always in the bottom three, it feels like.
Sainz closing that gap now..
Ferrari
@F-Red - Leclerc is a great example of how the racing is different now. He’s been less than a second behind the car in front (first Bottas and now Ocon) for basically over 25 laps now.
That simply never happened before.
That simply never happened before.
Oh Ferrari.
Ferrari are a bunch of amateurs
Agree, is the money he brings in worth THAT MUCH to have to endure him either crashing or finishing last every weekend?
Not only terrible strategy, but terrible pit now too. Ends up behind crowd again. Ferrari are incredible.
I don't get how Ferrari can be so bad in all the important moments
the pits have been dreadful today, Leclerc with a slow one also.
Divebomb incoming 
Sigh.. I don’t know what’s worse between being a United fan or a Ferrari fan..
Lets go Sainz! Do they pit him now...
Red Bull never seems to make bad decisions or feck things up, they seem head and shoulders above in that regard
Yeah they're super solid on strategy
Lewis ahead of Max How have they managed to do it, what have they done to that car
Lewis fans' first moment of joy this season?
