Let's see how it goes. That front wing thing was worrying. Hopefully nothing serious that will jeopardise our race.

Why not bring Piastri in now and let him attack with a new hard?

Holding out for safety car, which could gift him 2nd. Or late charge on softs.

Because his pace is OK and if he comes on softs in 6 laps he'll make some more places.

Having 20s+ gain it was a dumb mistake. Anyway. Keep focusing Lando

Seems like that was the plan but Piastri not confident.

He'll be fine though, 3 s a lap faster when he pits to softs.

I would say let him make a pit stop distance. Russell is stuck behind Leclerc losing time.

When Russel gets past Charles, Oscar should pit.

It's time to pit. I was hoping for Leclerc to hold him for 4 more laps.

They are being not so bright with Piastri on a track where track position is king. Ferrari moment.

Lewis is struggling and Russell overcut them. It's better to have pace advantage so that he can get past both.
