Verstappen keeping put behind Hamilton - probably doesn't want to eat his tyres.

Does anyone have access to official live timing? I'd like to know Kubica's best race lap compared to Russell's.

Kubica is the new Chilton.

Leclerc not exactly setting the world alight, but he could finish on the podium yet.

The way this is going, Bottas could take the win with the largest margin to 2nd for a whole while.

Probably ferrari will arrange a safty stop for vettel whi really looks srtuggling with tyres. At this pace leclerc will surely pass him so it s probably better making a ttre change for good. I cant believe how bad ferrari showed compared to the good promises of winter testing. The car is unbalanced and way off mercedes pace.

Found the answer elsewhere: Bottas and Verstappen running 1:27.5s, Hamilton 0.2s slower, Vettel in the 1:28.2s.

Russell and Kubica are in the 1:30s, although Russell just lost 9 seconds in the last lap so he must have gone off. That's about the pace of the 1997 F1 cars.

Vettel can then gun for the extra point for fastest lap.

Are you sure ferrari has enough speed to post the fastest lap?
Hamilton has the same strategy issue of vettel but he can still manage to stay aheadof verstappen.

Mercedes will probably try to keep Hamilton out for track position.
So yes, Vettel should get that point.
