The Ferrari Pitcrew clearly needs more practise or some changes. I think they managed only one clean stop so far...

I don't get what Mercedes are doing leaving both cars out and not changing tyres.

If they had pitted they would have come out behind other cars.

Mercedes dodges a bullet:
-Best car check
-Ferrari messing up and crashing
-Fortunately timed safety cars
-When they crash, it is non-fatal damage
-Lose a minute because of a messy pit stop? We got a too long safety car for you for that!

Mark my words, Hamilton or Bottas will still win
True GOATs don’t need the help of superior material to win.

Tom Brady, Usain Bolt are true GOATs.

What a great race, pity about loosing some cars at that last corner, it looks treacherous

This race is NOT over yet, at this rate they'll run out of tires !

And penalty too for Hamilton?
i mean if they let leclerc off the hook, then they should do the same for hamilton, though he was solely responsible for driving the wrong side of the bollard. Even then, usualy an unsafe release always mean a penalty, but not today.
Problem is, the unsafe release is done by the pit crew, the wrong side of the bollard is a driver's error.

Not if they pitted when Max did or the lap after, but even if they had Albon, Sainz and Gasley in front it would be easy work to overtake them with fresh tyres in a Merc.

Was giving him a time penalty part of that?

Hamilton will be lucky to score more than a point or two.
If you are more fortunate than others, build a larger table not a taller fence.

Lewis has such a big lead in the championship he can afford this kind of race hes only racing Bottas for it anyway.
