A big row behind alonso. Is he driving that slow or are the cars that even?
DRS is crap on this track it seems.

Faster cars can't get past.

Yep, doubtful that Sainz will be much higher than 4th. Most likely will need to pit again and cop the penalty too, plus has to try and get past Perez if he pits as well... and cannot see that happening with their top speed this weekend.

it's Alonso trolling leaders, it will put them right into that train if/when they have pit :D

but seriously, I suspect Max is in full conservation mode, considering he stopped quite a bit earlier, so he'll try to go to the end

DRS shouldn't be a cure-all... Some want it abolished to create pure racing after all. :)

They should really think about cutting out the Chicane on the back straight, but leave the rest of the track the way it is... would make it more of a challenge for S1 and S3 with a lower downforce setup.

They brought Sainz in with 10 laps to go... WHY?!

Up until then, he was guaranteed P3... with a potential 5 second gap to pull ahead of Perez and Russell.
