As for moves defending, all the ones I thought were suspect I replayed, and Leclerc only made one move. As for gaining an advantage on the chicane, he went from over 4/10ths to nothing and clearly gained nothing in that mistake. Following the attack Lewis made, Leclerc only moved once, it's simply that he moved right to the racing line just as Lewis bolted left thinking about a dive inside. If Lewis felt it was not unsafe to move left, surely Leclerc moving right made it less dangerous if anything. Lewis moved more times than Leclerc did between those corners, he just didn't get a shot to get by him.
Renault did an amazing job here.
Racing point had a slow start to the race, but excepting Strolls move, made some progress back up.
