Not sure what our pace is right now with all this traffic. I think Piastri might be able to strategise to 2nd, but that's the only place we'll be able to get it.

Another painful Monaco "race".

It does increase jeopardy but the race is still boring and only change is that there is more luck involved.

What's with the lapped cars not making way immediately? I noticed it earlier with Max also. They have to make way immediately.

They are fighting each other and there's not really many places they can go. Its Monaco.

I suppose that we could always Pit Oscar again and go for the undercut in a few laps, might be wroth a risk.

Can't undercut 5 seconds behind. Go long. Someone will crash.

Lando handling this race beautifully so far.

Oscar has to make some distance from Max if he wants that 3rd place.

Burn rubber first, of course, it's too early to pit now. I mean throw caution to the wind, Qualy laps for a while, close up, kill the tyres and then pit. Then come out and throw caution to the wind again. These tyres won't be great cos he had to go full beans on his outlap.

[Ben1980]

Lando losing time?

[Darth-Piekus]

Any ideas how rules are with 2 mandatory pitstops and tyres?

[Darth-Piekus]

Either Leclerc is so much faster or Lando Norris is handling his tyre. Hopefully that won't cause a Safety Car.

[Ben1980]

Leclerc flying. Looking at undercut maybe

[mwillems]

Hard is not great on Piastri either, but I suspect that's due to his outlap.

Piastri is going backwards, he shoud pit and bring the tyres in, then go nuts.

[Darth-Piekus]

36 Laps of anxiety.

[Mcl_G10]

Lando simply managing.

All seems to easy right now. Wait it out until the end and pit to cover.

Only potential danger is a grid restart after a red flag with leclerc on mediums and norris on hards.

[mwillems]

F*ck me, Oscar has struggled with the rear in every session I think, giving the barriers a "Glasgow kiss"

[Slahinki]

Piastri needs to calm down or he's going to bin it into the barriers.
