A lot of drivers were seemingly going to do 40-50 laps on the hards so shouldn't have really got a puncture after 30, I think that is why they mentioned Pirelli are going to need to take a look at it

Ah I see, is this the kind of strategy they use at this particular course? In the previous races they have never done that.

 

Unbelievable!! Verstappen out!!!

Did not see that coming, must be tyre from Max. That is so unlucky 

[Facecloth]

Wow!

[PhillippaT]

Max? WTF? Tyre again? Oh no...

Left rear, same as Stroll

 

SEB PODIUM THOUGH!

[Leicester_Loyal]

Wow, didn't expect that...

[ShadowKing]

So if same tire as stroll, will pirelli be more worried something wrong?

[Super_horns]

Oh dear - rotten luck for Verstappen.

Yeah pretty much everyone usually starts on softs and then after 10 laps or so put hards on and go the rest of the race

 

Stroll was seemingly doing the opposite, do about 40 laps on hards then switch to softs

 

But that Verstappen tyre failure being the same as Stroll is going to bring up big questions for Pirelli now 

[PhillippaT]

Was that a bit of debris flying away I saw after the tyre went? *Needs another replay...*

 

Red flag...  Will it be restarted for just two laps? If not when does it get counted back to?

Red flagged so new tyres on if they restart this race. This could be interesting. Wonder if its debris on track or worried about tyres. 

[Countryfox]

Blimey didn’t see that coming ...   some big questions to be asked of Mr Pirelli ...

[moore_94]

So if they go with this count back thing Max will actually still get the win...

No because they did one more lap under the safety car

[moore_94]

Vettel the only one of the front 3 that will have a fresh set of softs... 

[PhillippaT]

Dammit - they haven't showed the right replay again - from head-on starting before the crash...

[moore_94]

Both Stroll and Max actually quite lucky they only brushed the wall when their tyres failed, could have been a lot worse

[Leicester_Loyal]

Fair play to RB for asking for a restart and saying new tyres rather than saying finish behind the SC.

Team Latifi

 

[Countryfox]

Is Tsunoda old enough to drive ??? .....

[ShadowKing]

Feel bad for Latifi, he was told to stay out

Pirelli... nothing to see here, nothing to see.  You'd think they'd use black bags, not red ones! 

 

[Countryfox]

Salutary lesson to all of you out there with Pirelli tyres ...   don’t go over 200mph !!!
