Ferrari is a little better here after that upgrade.

It seems so and Perez is also faster. Correction was faster. Piastri got up his game but still Leclerc is faster. I think unless something happens he is gonna win.

An easy one for Leclerc it seems, on a league of his own. Pace on Lando not particularly impressive too, struggling to cut the gap to Albon and I wonder if he has enough pace to overtake on-track even if he gets there.

Decent start but big gap to leader already for Lando (17 seconds). Front runners are running much faster laptimes on mediums.
Not expecting a win for lando surely?

Gap to verstappen the one to watch throughout the race
Just meaning how much he lost in first couple of laps behind Tsunoda and others (about 15 seconds). He seems to have decent pace, maybe this turns up into two stop for these early stoppers.

I think Norris is doing everything to make this a one stop.

Lando just said on the radio that Albon is quicker. Not a good track for them this one.

I honestly don't see how they get a good result for Lando here with the pace he is having. Not without a safety car.

No. He is doing something magic with the tyres

Stint one, it looks like we damaged the tyres attacking LEC at the start.

Yep, one of the weakest areas for Piastri still. I don't know why he keeps hammering it immediately after a pit stop. He has been doing the same thing since Imola and he hasn't learned that taking life out of the tires early on hurts your stint tremendously.

Lol yeah, and he's at it again. He just needs to manage his tyres but keep some pressure on.
