Lewis Hamilton has taken another massive step towards winning this year's World Championship by dominating the Japanese Grand Prix while Bottas completes the Mercedes 1-2. Max Verstappen finished a close third. Championship contender Sebastian Vettel was 6th at the finish line.
Mercedes nail it and are on the better tyre for the start and qualify on Slicks and so get it a 1/2-Check.
Ferrari get it totally wrong and end up on the worse tyre for the start and then go for inters? and end up 4/9-Check.
That isn’t Mercedes doing anything extraordinary by the way. It totally brain dead options by Ferrari.
DC (David Coulthard) - You wouldn’t want to get in the way of the WDC battle would you?
MV (Max Verstappen) - Is it still a battle? I’m not sure!
DC - Fair point.

So the F1 app in Q2 showed us that only Lewis and Bottas went on S tyres but at the beginning of Q3 they said only Lewis did ...
What was happening in reality?
