Piastri staying out to jump Norris helps a lot.
It doesn't turn.

Now it'll be a flatout race again. In this stint Max was managing.

But also gives piastri 3 extra points as it stands.

Yes but I feel that now Mclaren/Pia isn't any threat to Max on the restart with those older tires, and that Norris will eventually pass Piastri on those fresh tires but Max will have dissappeared by then. Would be trickier if Norris had fresh tires sitting in 2nd on the restart.

Can someone tell me why they called a full SC when they called a VSC for the exact same thing before?

Surely RB can't be happy with that choice that compromise their chance to win.

Ocon was close to an opening, now with Kimi they need the recovery vehicle

I think Max can do it, by the time Norris will pass Oscar he will be quite ahead, then having Norris behind is better than having Oscar.

I don't think norris is any slower in race trim than piastri, so be careful what you wish for.
