Can Piastri be used to delay Max a little bit?

[RichB]

Sainz moaning about that overtake by Lewis. Looked hard but fair to me.

Oh well never mind..

[Sandpit Steve]

Poor from Oscar there, could have been used to slow up Max.

[ChocolateFrog]

Either brave or stupid from Norris.

Wouldn't like to call it myself.

I agree but it's right in the window of 'mental decisions that stewards make'.

He’s not having a great weekend so far.

[Sandpit Steve]

Can Lando and Charles make a one-stop of this?

[troc]

I’m guessing that once he lost out on turn 1, they decided to go a completely different way for Norris, maybe they think they are going to be super easy on tyres and have some massive over speed at the end of the race?

I agree. 50/50 that they'll penalise that as he did understeer and touch Sainz.

No further investigation.

Red Bull will just extend Max now, to counter Norris extra tyre life potential at the end.

[SmoothCriminal]

This strategy for norris reminds me of the stupid merc strategies they used to use when it was clear to come in but they left Hamilton out and he ended up getting mugged.

Perez nicely poised in 10th to back up Max if needed.

Why the hell is he on softs?!?!?

[Sandpit Steve]

Of course George won’t play the team game.

Well now he’s got Lando up his arse.

[Yazza54]

Thought Russell might play the game a bit more there and keep Hamilton in DRS.

Glad he didn't though.

He isn't, he's on mediums

[The Vambo]

Luck Lewis didn't jink to the right

[el romeral]

As mentioned earlier, George is not a team player - it is beat Lewis at all costs, for him.
