2020 Portuguese Grand Prix - Portimão, October 23 - 25 Sportsbook Motor Sport

[Franco Pinion]

Stroll having a horrendous day. Two 5 second penalties to serve now.

 

[Bandit]

Nice fight between Kimi and Sainz, clean stuff from both

 

[Fraser]

Excellent battle from Perez and Ocon there too.

Some other drivers might have waited until the DRS next lap, respect to Perez.

Mercedes have to gamble on the Hards here or do a two-stopper Soft/Med. Track temp is supposed to be about 20C so it could be very hard to get the hards to work, you'd think?

Stick a set of wheelbarrow wheels on them and they'd still win the race.

 

[Fraser]

Leclerc extending his lead over Perez slightly, was 3s out to 5s now. 4th would be great for him, possible podium if someone in front has issues

 

[Franco Pinion]

Yet again Bottas wants a different strategy but, of course, Mercedes wouldn't want him racing Hamilton for the lead because "that's not how we do business"

 

[Fraser]

Gasly is a man really enjoying his racing this season, another great performance from him today so far.

Bad enough to have one team dominating without them trying to fix it so one of their drivers has a far better chance of winning than other.

If it was the other way around it would be a different story.

Agreed .

You have to hand it to Rosberg in fairness. He was in the same boat as Bottas, but he managed to beat Hamilton and the teams efforts to keep him at number 2.

To be fair to Mercedes they're happy having both cars in the top 2 positions, they're not interested in playing favourites by giving one faster tyres than the other.

The real shame is having nobody else to challenge them at all.
