Lando just opened up near a second after that radio message. If that is all within tyre management then that is scary pace!

Mediums and hards would do this almost twice. They can burn the tyres.

This car is faster than the rest by a margin here, roundabout .5 seconds.
Lando agrees with you

So far so good. We need to be ready for anything.

You could see it yesterday. They just struggled with getting the best lap in, but the pace was clear

Piastri is going long to support Lando when he stops

Unfortunate that he lacks so much pace here. With another Lando, we could have had someone pressuring Max.

I guess so. His pace is pretty slow at the moment.

Norris should make the distance as he is doing right now and not need Oscar.

He's very slow, but I'm wondering if he's doing med softs and is being very cautious.

Lando will soon have a pit gap to second.

See why I told you why Norris should turn 1st on that first turn? It's impossible to pass in Singapore.

Clear air for Piastri. Time to close that gap to Verstappen.

Damn it. Piastri is now flying after getting rid of that Rusell. Time to see if after the pit stops he can get Max.
