Could be the papaya cooling trick is on full song with lighter fuel, they were holding back all the time and Charlie thinks its the car.

As I said : The papaya's just wait and nail it with their tyre cooling trick ..
They don't need to have the fastest car (!)
Charlie's gap (P3) is now 14 sec. Too bad !
And that won't change for the rest of this season...

Maybe but RUS is now on his tail too. He gained more tha 0,5sec/lap.
The pace LEC has now is not comparable what he had at the start or in the mid of the race.
LEC seems to know what is wrong with the car. Maybe some setting?

Max has been stuck behind LAW for some time now well within 1sec, so up on his gearbox.
Apparently no teamorder here!

LAP 61/70 : Rus vs Charlie is coming up. Gap is 0.6 sec. (!)
RUS : Charlie is moving under braking ..

And Rus wins the fight for P3 .
Too bad for Charlie . Mid-race it still looked so good for Charlie ..
Ferrari shame on you !

YUKI is P18 . Ohhh boy .

And the first rain drops ....

The MCLAREN tyre advantage (!)

The longer the race lasts , the more tyre advantage McLaren has (!)

Looks like Lando's win as PIA locks up.

On top of that LEC gets a 5 second penalty as he desperately tried to hold on to third.

Wow that was close at the end. NOR well deserved win.
But it's clear that in the end it's very much down to the car this year, with both drivers this close!
At least they're keeping it close between the two...

And RB.....is now officially the B team of the RB empire, with VCARB beating them this race fair and square. No pacecars or other mechanical trouble etc.
Falling this hard down the order within the same ruleset.... that's very very bad. Of course Newey didn't designed the cars by himself, but Newey leaving and RB loosing out this much...that can't be a coincidence. So next year will probably be worse. Nothing points in a different direction.
Let's see what AMR can do next year, with proper management, a state of the art factory and windtunnel, proper funding and Newey

5- ALO
6- BOR
