Ricciardo took like 12 seconds out of Verstappen in like 3 laps there. Shame there wasn't one or two more laps.

This one at least had something going on in the midfield, not like Spain.

I dunno, it seemed there was some actual passing and stuff going on in the middle of the field. The Hamilton / Bottas 1 2 is basically already set when they qualify 1 & 2. It's not a big secret who is going to win the race every weekend at this point... just about how much he will win it by...

Yeah there was an actually interesting midfield shuffle with Gasly and Perez pitting at a weird time after staying out with the safety car and then crawling back through. Albon/Ocon/Norris was fun for a few laps.

A shame I missed some of that because I kept watching closely to see if they would pit Max late to make a run at Bottas but I guess they figured they didn’t have pace to make up the stop or that Ric would hold him up too much.

Eh, if Max pitted then Bottas would put the very next lap, lose 1-3 seconds of his 5 second gap, and keep his position.

Yeah you’re right and I even remember the commentary saying that they’d cover him off now. I’m still new to figuring out strategy.
