Excellent news for Norris now, he'll save a ton of time at his pit.

Tough decision - it will take away a one stop probably.

They deployed the VSC just as Lando passed the pit entry.

Such a stupid decision.

He's pitting, he's not lost anything yet

He hasn't pitted yet, but looks like we'll still be covered under VSC

Edit
Ok, that's good, thankfully we didn't get done over

Looks like it might be full SC. He's just pitted..

The team came out a few minutes ago but Lando went by. Came in a lap after.

I thought Lando was going to wait for full safety, who knows where this will go now.

I'm surprised it didn;t go to VSC straight away, or even to full SC with a driver on track. Thinking back to Jules Bianchi under full SC it was very strange to see double yellow.

Waiting for a SC wouldn't really help him. VSC pit was a good decision.
