Giovanazzi gets a stop go for pitting when the pits were closed. Why not Hamilton?
The race is red flagged. |

Reg flag is the right call imo.
Yeah why no penalty for ham? |

An interesting shot of Lewis on his scooter, going down pit road.

I've just been through the official docs for this race.
They state the the light panel indicated on the "pit lane map" (which I can't find) will display a red cross when pit entry is closed. Both panels at Parabolica were displaying the SC symbol - yellow surround with white SC in the centre. |

Hate this changing tyre under red flag. Means Stroll won’t actually have to pit

I have mixed feelings about the free stop.

They are hard to see at speed and I suspect whoever was leading would have come in because there was so little time to react. The other teams had just an extra few seconds to make the right choice. |

Mercedes do not do well with pit stops around SCs.

I stand corrected. Although I dispute the use of the word "clearly"

Apparently it will be a grid restart, not a restart behind the SC.

When was the last time we had a team other than Mercedes, Red Bull or Ferrari win a race?
(I mean, they have a pretty good chance to do it today.) |

Yeah. And in any case it can't be on the driver there - he's been told to pit, he's expecting to pit and was all but committed to pitting by the time those panels were visible. The problem is that the team didn't see the notification that pits were closed in time (because presumably it didn't occur to them as it's never happened before). The teams just a few seconds back down the track were able to see it.

A clean and uneventful restart.

This race is, of course, in 2020 - the year nobody can predict what happens next.

Great racing from Sainz & Raikkonen there.
Hamilton pumping in insane laps now. |

That radio message was played at right moment.
Great pass by Sainz. |

Good demonstration here of how Hamilton's car (and Bottas', by extension) is designed and/or set up to be in front.
