If you looked for the meaning of the term “damage limitation”, you’d probably see a picture of Carlos and Lando today

Great damage limitation. Was in a bad mood watching the first half of the race seeing the 2 pink Mercedes up front!

Actually only 5 points gain for RP. Norris also got the fastest lap. Not a bad race for the team. Could’ve been way worse

Dr Jeckyl and Mr Hyde! What happened? Were the cars set for the race? Probably we couldn't warm the tyres enough during quali. I am not really sure. But today, when most of the drivers were finding it difficult to pass anyone, Norris was doing it so easily!! After the second pitstop I was sure that he will catch Stroll!

Lando with race winning pace in the second half of the race. It's a shame he bottled his start otherwise it was an easy 5th, 6th today. The car was great today. The race was lost yesterday cos with a better qualifying we could have had a podium today. Brilliant performance from the drivers today.

Damn. Sainz was so close to the podium. Norris was the fastest car on track. It's too bad we have Lady Luck against us in Saturdays cause yesterday that was pure luck. You can't predict such heavy rain would happen that would impede the Intermediates. Also how is Perez so good in keeping tyres? He had tyres 22 laps older and he was doing good the whole race. Guess daddys boy can handle the pressure of 1st place.

So can someone make some calculations? Whats the current standings?

Or Sainz didnt make a mistake in sector 1 a few laps before the end. He was 2s behind vettel, then he got 4s. Despite
This, he was fantastic :)

Running the inters in Q2 cost us a podium today.
It was 2 fantastic drives today by the boys. Carlos was exceptional and Landos pace at the end was incredible.

Shame about qualifying and a shame about the collective 8 place penalties.
Just a fan's point of view

So what's the standings right now? The team has the speed. We need a clear race where we are in front and have all the luck in the world for just once.
