So are we back to seeing Red Bull on top already?

Seems so. Damage limitation for Norris I think.

Brilliant racing from the Ferraris.

Piastri's been so poor this weekend so far. Messy yesterday and twice driving others off the road today.

Lando just doesn’t have the killer instinct.

Not a good day for Lando.

Bit harsh, Lando had no tyres left and did pretty well to finish third given the Macca's relative pace.
Only real surprise so far was how much Merc dropped off. Nowhere after 10 laps.

George really helped Lando out there, but he earned some luck with that first effort.
Annoying that the spoiler race has revealed the true order. Max vs Ferrari tomorrow. That red bull have seemingly sorted their balance woes with their upgrade might be terminal for hopes of a WDC battle.
Though the decision to stick with Perez continues to look baffling. Will cost them constructors title.

At this point I can only assume Perez has kompromat on half of RB management

If Lando hasn't got the pace to beat Max, he's potentially better served by moving aside and letting the Ferrari's get after him.

Didn't think it'd be that quick but that'll do.

Well he bollocksed that up impressively.

Lando will never win a world title if he can't sort his starts out.

Not a good weekend for Lewis.

Getting the Ferraris ahead of Max is key for his championship. Not saying he did a good job at the start but the net result was good.
4th is par for him today, so if the Ferraris can prevent a Max win that's a good result.

Lando's right re:the start btw. Max left the track looking at that onboard.

It's just maths. We had the spoiler race yesterday so we know where the cars at.

Doesn’t look like it mattered even if Norris kept it on the first corner. Dropped way off.

Precisely. He can't win today on pace, so worst thing to do would've been to let Max get too far away from the Ferraris.
AHH poor Carlos. There goes the Ferrari 1-2.

Lawson to beat Perez? That'd be delicious.

Such a pity Carlos seemingly has to run a lower engine mode. Costing him 0.5 a lap.

Russell getting a penalty for doing exactly what Verstappen did to Norris and what Sainz did to Verstappen 🤦🏻♂️

This force everyone off at the exit overtake era of F1 winds me right up. But at least be consistent.

It should always be a penalty for shoving someone off, unless they intentionally ran wide as Brundle claimed. The stewards have the brake and throttle data to be able to judge that.

You can see Norris gaining now.
