Leclerc really struggling here, feels like the hunt is on, particularly if the early stoppers get stuck in traffic.

I dont think we could go better than 6th and 7th today. The car doesn't seem to be able to match the race pace of Ferrari, Mercedes or Red Bull.

Depends, this is a long stint, if Leckerc keeps locking we can get close perhaps.

Happy for Sainz.

If Leclerc keeps struggling with the brakes we should be able to bag at least 5th and 6th.

Leclerc has a massive issue. We should get 5th, unless it all gets fixed.

Carlos with no Fs given is great fun.

RBR obviously still have ALL the pace.

If it isn't a Mclaren driver, I'd love Sainz to win the title! Sadly its not likely 😕

To me the pace looks comparable to Mercedes, Ferrari and Perez.

We lost a bit at the pitstops as they undercut us and we lost some time behind Alonso. For a track that does not suit us this is great.

I think we can get both cars in Top 5, that would be a great result.

Was there an issue at Piastris stop? He exited 7 seconds behind Leclerc.

Yes, we look good. Only Sainz and the Red Bulls look faster, very promising.
