Pirelli though softs would do 22 laps, max did 28.

Funny enough that's also plus 6, which is what Lewis has been told he's on.

Max needs to box.

I don't think so, he needs to extend as much as possible if they are doing a 1 stop.

No way will the medium get to the end.

Max is really taking it easy on them though

If the mediums do 35 +6, then Mercedes can only go hard. Where red bull can drop back onto soft.

No way will they manage a medium - soft

Ham hards

Yeah this really doesn't look like it'll work for the Mercs, Perez is basically about to overtake them in the pit stops.

[chrisc90]

Lap 30 and Lewis pits for hard.

That could be a killer

Feeling a bit like Zandvoort

[Mogster]

Hards? Hmmm

[DGP123]

Mistake

[Mchamilton]

Hards is a hella gamble, they've been so slow all weekend

[GrizzleBoy]

Hmmmm.... Mercedes strategy. I don't know.

[InsaneX_Badger]

Thought the mediums looked sure of lasting the whole race no?

[chrisc90]

Out strategied by red bull

Those mediums should have gone wayyy longer. Sainz did the same stint on his

[organic]

Merc are always good on harder compounds though, surely?

[Mchamilton]

Mediums can go to the end so Lewis ain't winning this on hards
