That is not clever from Gasly, he's cost RBR quite a bit of running this winter with his excursions off track. I expected a bit more level headedness from him, because he was exceptionally mature at TR. Still learning I guess.

Well there's some comfort for the other teams, the Ferrari has at least appeared to breakdown again.
Puff of blue gray smoke and loss of drive, that's an engine letting go methinks.

Compound adjusted someone just said they think Lewis' lap on the C2 would be equivalent of a 1:16.4 on the C5 tyre's. Not sure of the maths myself, but I'm not sure the delta is that big is it?

Pirelli's tyre gap estimate:
C1 to C2: 0.8 – 1.0 seconds
C2 to C3: 0.7 seconds
C3 to C4: 0.6 seconds
C4 to C5: 0.6 seconds

Hmm... So that's actually 1.9 seconds from the C2 to C5, which puts Lewis's laps as a 1:16.1 actually or thereabouts. Interesting.

Gasly just dropped it, and damaged wheel rim my arse for Sebs crash, you can see the top suspension arm break. That was a very nasty hit for Seb, absolutely sod all he could have done as the straight tyre tracks showed.
