Perez needs to be up there to pick up the wins if Max has trouble but I can definitely see RB's doing a clean sweep.

Russell seems to be having a bit of a mini meltdown this weekend.

Charles was saying something was wrong with his car yesterday, and I saw a picture of the mechanics checking the car. Do we know if they figured anything out?

Rosberg loves stirring the Mercedes pot, doesn’t he? Bless him.
Mostly loves winding up Lewis.

Rosberg definitely said it on the F1 commentary after the race.

I think Russel knew his lap wasn’t fast enough, wasn’t sure if he had another lap in the tank but wanted to try regardless. Lewis was told Russell was ending his lap and wasn’t on a fast lap.

Russell was preoccupied but made the error.

The team should have told Lewis what was happening.

Lewis shouldn’t have said ‘that was dangerous’ on the public radio.

Soft-Hard-Soft might be the best strategy considering the pace advantage at the end of the race!

Hopefully there is enough tire degradation so that there is enough pace difference between the cars to promote overtaking!

Alonso with the kind on its tires Aston Martin will be in the play for the podium I think!

I'm just pleased we've got a 2 stop (dry tyres) race, first of the season! Verstappen should win this at a canter, it's anyones guess for the rest of the podium today.

Landos own fault to be fair, not used to starting at the sharp end clearly

Mercedes is quicker than Aston on this track by the looks of it.

Sainz happy, gotta say I am surprised Ferrari's softs aren't already gone!

Either the circuit does not favour Aston Martin, or they are getting behind in the development wars.

Those overtakes at end of the straight are piss easy for everyone.

Sainz is too relaxed while Hamilton is behind him under one second.
