You're optimistic in thinking there was a plan!
Merc gave him too big a hole to climb out of.
Mediums dead for Hamilton already?
Theres a possibility with how crap Perez is driving that Hamilton could be the first driver since 1978 to finish runner up in a championship without winning a race. Thats how bad Perez is driving.
Those two on the radioNot heard max so flustered before.
Max struggling with brakes.

Well there definitely wasn’t “a” plan. They always seem to have one for each letter of the alphabet and importantly, never seem to use A or B!
It'll be really embarrassing for Perez if Lewis overtakes him in the championship
But he is banging in fastest laps
I am pretty sure it's fixed plans A, B, C, D, E for every race, no matter what happens in the race. They have their laps, tires set earlier and that's it.
The fact that drivers mid race talk more sense then their engineers regarding tactics says it all. Asking Leclerc to change the plan with 10 laps left was ridiculous.
I think Hammy takes Norris. Unless those tyres die all of a sudden. Max I think is not gonna be caught.
3 seconds gap stayed for too long at one point, I thought he gave up. My bad.
"We're checking..."
Wonder if Max is saving his tyres a bit while he has Lando as a buffer
Norris is a quality driver
Get in Lewis
Finally some proper racing!
Never change americanot enough laps or medium’s to catch Max
7 laps, 5 seconds. He won’t catch him.
Shame gap is too big, they left hamilton out too long for first stop. Would have been nice to see some hamilton v verstappen racing.
Better strategy and Hamilton would've won today.
Interesting the two Ferraris have different colour wheel cover things
Alonso in the pits and a DNF ?
Perez now might pass Leclerc too.
Yeah some kind of rear suspension failure I believe.
Ferrari circus is back in town
Ferrari need a car that averages 0.5s per lap faster than any other car in order to be able to offset strategy mishaps.
Mercedes cocked up Lewis’s first pit and the race.
Is this the turning point for Mercedes and getting a car, capable of beating Max.

Lando could be in trouble here
Pain for Lando and Charles yet again.
I think Norris should easily hold off Sainz.
Perez should pass Leclerc.
Perez should pass Leclerc.
Would have been a race at least, but the amount of times I’ve said or read that over the years
I think he’s good.
AMs are competitive today. Shame for Alonso DNF.
Ferrari
“Do you think you can do it?”
What a fecking irrelevant question that is.
