Lando fricked Lando with the poor start and inability to pass Georgie boy.

Checo with a huge last lap pass on the alpine for a scintillating 8th place

Landos pitstops 3.6 seconds and 2.7seconds

Max's pitstops 1.9 and 2.4

Difference of 2.0 seconds there. Enough to give Lando DRS at the end.

Some head scratchers on strategy this race. I'm not quite sure what Mclaren and Merc were thinking.

Merc going on the hard tire for Georgie was dumb. Ham said soft med soft was always the plan

Yea, but I think Max was doing a bit of tire saving for defense

until the strat 10 call then he stabilized the gap for a few laps. By the end Lando was a good bit quicker. The start screwed him and with the dodgy pit stop they were never able to get that time back

In the mid-field battle, neither Aston Martin, neither VCARB, neither Haas scored. Alpine with another 9-10 finish. The only WDC movement was Ocon passing Albon.

In the WCC Alpine has passed Haas. Alpine are back! Still 20 pts behind VCARB.

The Ferraris looked like they lacked pace compared to the Mercedes today.

Probably would have won had he not messed up the start. Max keeps winning with not the best car, he is the man.

It may be marginally faster.

Max is faster/better than Norris however.
