[Greasy]

Gutted for JB.

Poor Jenson. Farewell mate.

Race is all a tad hold station right now.

[steveaki13]

Crucial move for Nico. Was a good move. That should be job done. Imagine going round like Nico now, just knowing the championship is waiting for you. How exciting

[AndyL]

It does kind of look like it's about beating Ferrari for Red Bull now, but Verstappen did outpace Rosberg on the last couple of laps so that could still be a race for 2nd. Which would be pretty astonishing for a guy who was facing the wrong way on lap 1.

Edit: nope! Mercedes got it done in the pits and it's plain sailing now.

[steveaki13]

It was always plain sailing, any commentators trying to create false drama are just winding the viewers up. Mercedes are too fast to be pressured.

[Greasy]

Hammy backing up so he can try and take him off.

[steveaki13]

I dont think Hammy is planning to knock him off. However his last chance is if Red Bull and Vettel come back into play

[Greasy]

I don't think Vettel is going to be an issue, Nico can let him go if he wants.

[Greasy]

Sorry, verstappen not vettel. Ferrari aren't in it.

[AndyL]

Lewis being told "Vettel is an imminent threat" and responds by slowing down
