Gasly's tyres are going, he's dropping back and Sainz is taking big chunks now, very impressive for Mclaren this race.

"I don't know how but the balance has gone."

Sainz has front wing damage. Damn.

Damn he's lost loads of time from the overtaking leaders too, unlucky, gonna have to defend against the Alfa if he can't get it back.

I would say Sainz should defend for now and get as many points as possible

Nothing else he can do, Gio is 4s behind Raikonnen so I hope he can stay ahead of Gio at least. P9 wouldn't be that bad.

Tyre debris in the front wing when the leaders came past, they're hoping it might clear.

McLaren is returning. Two times in a row best of the rest and it's no coincidence

Yes yes yes! I think he could have gotten Gasly without the damage. Great pace. What a race.

What a great race! If only F1 could deliver races like this more often...
I guess Sainz could have got Gasly if not for the problem with the front wing,brilliant drive.

Are there any more naysayers about who is the fastest midfield team? Sainz performance with the new engine shows just how faster we are and I can't wait to see the big update in Silverstone.

Mclaren giving us a lot of great moments lately... And it seems that we are in for a little more this season.

Unlucky for Lando to not be well positioned during his battle with Hamilton at the beginning of the race and got overtaken by Kimi... But the goal was best of the rest and in Austria we definitely were!

No mechanical issues, the cars made it all the way too the end... Great stints by both with very interesting strategies... This is AWESOME!
