Max car is really on the edge here. He can always undercut George if he doesn't manage to pass on track.

But let's face it guys. Russell is not looking like a convincing champion contender.

Red bull fastest car here?!
Maybe, but Antonelli is catching Verstappen and Russell has never been great on Sunday.

Antonelli missed two VSCs!

George is not good in high heat, low grip conditions.

good final stint from Russell. Not sure what Red Bull was thinking, though. Either undercut or take the mediums - that shorter stint on hards made no sense to me

Poor strategy from Red Bull racing, uncharacteristic error from them.

Bad day out for Ferrari, just losing a crazy amount on the straights. Both drivers had days to forget.

Russell's pace was average. But Kimi's was my goodness... :shock:

The people who stopped watching F1 have missed some good ones lately.

Really good performances out there. And good for George to see out the win

congrats to George, but even this time Kimi was faster, he got screwed by strategy (Mercedes wanted to avoid clash on track ?)

Max should have won today, they should have gone for the undercut when they had the chance

I don't think they could have made it with the grid position. This is pretty much as close as they could get.
