That looked exactly like 2016, except this time Max didn't get away from it.

Vettel's move on Ham was an exact copy of last year's one.

If you're starting from the outside, and not having the best of starts, you can't just steer into the apex on la source with 15 cars behind you at the start.... this is the second time Raikkonen made this mistake.

You also don't come from behind up the inside into the first corner of the race, when the car in front is obviously going to go for the apex.

If i were Mercedes, i’d pit Bottas earlyto force Ferrari to cover him?
Not for nothing, Rosberg's Championship is the only thing that lends credibility to Hamilton's recent success. Otherwise, he'd just be the guy who's had the best car. — bhall II

This may be the race that Vettel plays wingman to ensure a Ferrari victory.

You're making that up right? You're not seriously suggesting that it was ok for Max to come up from behind (not alongside) and to have Kimi leave space so cars can fit through.

Maybe you posted before you watched the replay

Strong pace from Vettel, might even undercut Leclerc

Sebastian Vettel, who never cracks under pressure, has his back end squirming around as Leclerc catches.

Not racing Vettel, so it may be the safe thing to leave him out. I am sure they will play the team game

Think Seb blistered or over heated his tyres on his outlap

Ah, I wasn't being a troll BTW. Ferrari have been good with Seb and Charles so far

Wonder if they will roll the dice and 2 stop Seb. Maybe a quick stop for softs
