Austrian commentators laughing at the drama queens "tires are so cold it's dangerous".... 2 laps later new lap record.
there is another side of that story - it tells you how slowly they drive under normal circumstances so those mickey mouse tires don't fall apart, as they are able to set new best lap times with not new AND cold softer tyres

Ricciardo has enough distance between him and Perez and there are not enough laps for Perez to do an overtake attempt.

He should be able to get 3rd.

The safety car really saved him.
Lando Norris being kept out saved Ricciardo.

Reliability issues gave Ricciardo 3rd place and Max and Hamilton were beyond amazing as usual.

It's amazing how Hamilton was able to put 5 seconds between himself and Max twice within 10 laps but the gap never exceeded 1.5 while Bottas was leading.

Why is Max getting the fastest lap a big deal ? In qualy he was half a tenth behind Lewis, and then in races , generally RedBull get closer to Mercedes. At the end they both had equal tyres, both had light fuel, surely RedBull should have had fastest lap anyway ?

The design of the Renault overalls is unfortunate. Ricciardo looks like he’s wet himeslf with that dark patch there
