No, I agree Morini, that gap is way too big. The race pace actually has Lewis ahead over Bottas with an average of 0.4 seconds a lap, Bottas' pace really dropped off towards the end of his first stint as well. But Bottas himself was 0.5 a lap quicker than Max... at the Red Bull Ring... no, that is ominous. Supposedly warmer tomorrow so we'll see, but I can't see past a Merc 1 & 2, unless there's mechanical problems or they drive into each other.

Just saw Binotto on Sky Italia... couldn't help but think what Arrivabene is thinking right now. He told Ferrari this is how it'd go if Binotto got his way. Schadenfreude must feel good about now.
