Can't see Ferrari doing anything in this race as both Leclerc and Sainz had performed poorly in qualifying with one going into the wall.
Well, they didn't and as I said before, I keep on pumping them up for the win against RB in the final standings, if I got this right RB increased their advantage by 9 points, so I expect at least 20 points better odds by late evening on this, I know how some bookies overreact on these as money flows.
Leclerc also seems to have - in many races - hard times passing anybody relevant during the race. This is a problem...
For now, as long as both Ferraris get home some points, the gap has better chances to go smaller and smaller, although this time it grew a little.
Luckily for Ferrari, McLaren car is incredibly fast and well balanced, denying Max quite some points. And Checo is disappointing in most of the cases, sadly.
Did I miss something apart from those two of Lando walls scares?
The start was interesting, with Colapinto gaining some 4 places in the first corner.
I also liked how Piastri overtook both Mercs in the same place (different laps though).
I disliked the fact Checo was unable to pass even Colapinto's Williams and Leclerc was forced to stay behind Alonso for more than 10 laps (luckily at some point Alonso went to pit to change tyres).
So a very clean race when you don't have any accidents nor mishaps.
Well, Albon's car started overheating and got retired, I think that KMag got a puncture, but managed to get to pit and Lando was incredibly close to wreck his car... basically twice. So it could easily have been different.
