Perez is closing already, think it was the wrong choice

Mercedes pit crew getting ready.

If it doesnt rain again its worth sticking with it, at worst he finishes 5th. Problem is if it rains again its just going to end up like Norris in Russia, could easily loose 20/30 seconds each lap

The FIA should stop thee bluff pit stops mercs do it all the time

Unless it dries out...

Sounds like Leclerc and Lewis are trying different tactics. Leclerc wants to go till the end, Lewis holding out for a dry line

Yes its always uncomfortable that teams send people out to stand in a pit lane as a decoy, especially on a wet track. Not just Merc thought they are all at it

Yes!

I was waiting for a "blame the evil Mercedes" post. Its been a while.

Utterly ridiculous of course because there is not a single point in bluffing a pit stop right now: Leclerc is too far ahead to worry and everyone else has long since come in.

Well done for remaining true to form though.

It's a shame because your ferrari comments showed you know your stuff when the red merc rage doesn't descend

It wasn't a bluff the driver over ruled them. The bluffing is illegal they stopped it on safety grounds a few years ago.

 

[Caesium137]

Think Hamilton has to stick it out now.

Hopefully no punctures or downpours!

 

[JM14]

Dont think this is working for Hamilton now, had to take the risk though

 

[Caesium137]

Unless it dries enough for a blast on softs, looks like sector 2 is still too wet though.

True but mercs have form.

yet FIA never mention it.

LeClerc a second quicker with 8 laps to go.

Pitting

Yeah I don't think it's going to work. Shame but he had to dp something

Go on Chico

great drive today

 

[Caesium137]

I'd have risked it and stayed out I think.

To be honest it is what I expected of him the whole time he's been there, he's been pretty underwhelming for a lot of it.

Worst he would have finished was 5th anyway, strategy was nowhere again from merc

 

[Caesium137]

Gasly is going to pass Lewis surely?
