Gonna get interesting... if i were Ferrari, i’d let Kimi close the gap, then get him to pass Vettel to put more pressure on Mercedes. Kimi’s tires are the freshest from the top 4 cars. Surely he could do some damage.

@Jolle; true, but what about insider information? Could be a lot of money involved.
Thats something for the betting agencies to work out.

Why not HS for Verstappen? surely 10 laps would be just fine for a new set.

Ferrari's performance and tyre management seem to have gone out the window at the same time as their bag of pre-race dry ice was banned by the FIA. Coincidence?
dry ice? what did i miss?

Ferrari is stupid. If Vettel wasn't pushing, Mercedes would make the switch. Now, they won't.

S hit strat by RBR. Not going to work against Kimi. Race is finished. World cup also done after this race. Only DNF can help Vettel now.

Merc's order killed possible excitement for the lead. Shame

Will this be the first time ever Hamilton is going to be gifted a win by his team mate?
