The marshall's dive into the barrier hole was great! 😅
Dive bomb of the day!
Yes, let's cover the overtake because we have to show Russell on a moped. 🙄
Sheesh, it's sad to see Russel's race end like that.
So, in the end, not a single spit of rain. McLaren strategists must be biting their fingers.
Three formation laps? Madness!
Well that was anticlimactic
What were McLaren thinking by starting on inters?
Okay, amazing start from Norris... to be thrown away with a (necessary) Lap 2 pit stop 🙃
Poor Arvid...
What was the latest VSC about?
I think they finally cleaned up the outside of the hairpin. Would have been nice if they showed it. 🤷♀️
There was a race control message about a marshall on turn 12, so I guess it was to clean up the straight after the hairpin
I am looking at the F1TV pre show (and Indy 500) but i am wondering, why am i seeing Juan Pablo Montoya and his son all the time throughout the weekend? It feels like Juan Pablo is really pushing to have his son in the spotlight of F1(TV)
Inter drivers are expecting chaos and a safety car/red flag?
Where do they have to get to for updated positions to apply after a red flag?
Great move from Lewis!
Mercedes powertrain really bombproof today (or maybe McLarens gearbox is not provided by Merc?)
Wow
What happened with George?!
Engine failure
He's still got it!
I am having 2016 flashbacks.

Thank youuuuu
Obligatory "Russel is mowing the lawn"
Locking up makes you go faster, amazing
Looks like you are right.
My blood pressure can't take all the excitement for the 1-2 fight.
