perez is quite useless today
No, he was screwed by the safety car. It would have been an easy P2 without the SC.

Perez was lapping over a second faster per lap than Norris and Leclerc before the safety car and was just coming up behind Leclerc. He did get screwed by the safety car.

Wrong, with that one stop strategy that Maclaren had, Perez would have finished 20sec in front of Norris. He was lapping so much faster.

Perez reducing the gap now that he has passed Leclerc, he is faster than Norris.

ok maybe i missed it. it looked like he was losing time after pit to norris as he had to overtake a few cars and norris was on 1 stop whereas as perez was on 2, so it wasnt certain he was on to finish 20s ahead of nor imo.
Anyway he's showing some pace now, maybe norris is within reach after all.

I think he cooked his tires too much behind Leclerc after the restart. Norris has him covered now.

Norris also had a lockup, but is now increasing the gap..

Nothing happening towards the end, bar the Alonso charge.

Strange race. Not much happened, but was a bit chaotic.

Good job by Hulk in collecting the last point that Stroll is too incompetent to score. He's by far the weakest driver in the top 5 teams.

Norris drove a very sensible race, helped by the VSC/SC.
