Bottas ran 35 laps with his first tires !

Great tire management....what if BOT undercuts HAM and wins based upon tire strategy??

HONDA power seems to have returned in a big way....

racerbruce · 07-12-2020, 10:24 AM

VER's front wing is deranged a bit on the lower right corner....bit and pieces hanging on by a thread.

Bad news my friend !
"According my calculations" : Bottas can get MAX in the last 3-4 laps .....

Meanwhile MAX has damaged his front wing (splitter)

Hopeful VER can hold off BOT for P2 and VER's front wing stays attached!

Why is Albon so far behind? Does he have damage?

The HONDA has lack of power ,it looks better than last year but there's still a lot of work to do , regarding top-speed .

The bad news is coming ! Bottas is in MAX mirrors !

Done...
No wait !!!
MAX did it again ....With his rear tires completely shot ! WOW !!!!

racerbruce · 07-12-2020, 10:30 AM

SO very exciting to see such action in F1.

Great work to Merc. Executed flawlessly with no drama.

Also great work to Perez, he was on fire today.

And Fantastic Lap 71 from Lando. Well done mate.

Also wtf happened to Ricardo? Battling Stroll or off drivers, and loosing.

tdott · 07-12-2020, 10:41 AM

Norris

charging at the end there.

It wouldn't be a F1 race without a Ferrari incident. Sigh...

Great fight and defence from MAX , as usual ....

But he lost it again vs the Mercs mighty power and DAS...
What we can see is a repeat of the '19 season .
As I said the Mercs top-speed is 13 km/h faster . So, all we can hope for is more HONDA power and closer battles in the next races .

Congrats for LEWIS !
