    Kimi got green. He's not to blame.

    OMG that pit crew member had his fibula and tibia snapped. I had to rewind the DVR and that guy will have to have a lot of surgery.

    You can see it break as the tire goes over it with his leg diagonal in front of it.

    Seb's pulling a useful gap to Bottas, but this is a major gamble by Ferrari!

    Ferrari should put Vettel onto new sifts and he can take Hamilton on the track. Better than third

    Might?! It clearly snapped both his left tibia and fibula. He will need internal fixation on that. Hope to god it was just his foreleg and didn't mess up his knee or ankle. Bones are one thing to break. If you destroy ligaments he won't walk the same.

    Absolutely not to blame. Just to show some concern for a wheel man that puts it on the line for Kimi every couple of weeks. But just my opinion.

    I believe Vettel will be third, he will have to pit now at about lap 45, I hope I'm wrong.

    His foreleg was broke so much it was flapping. It was like watching Gordon Hayward's injury with his leg dangling down. Holy crap I can't believe that just happpened.

    Vet pulling away from Bottas, Hamilton closing the gap but it’s still very large

    I don't think Ferrari brings spare mechanics in case of this...is the 1 stop now basically forced? With Kimi having gone for a 2 stop....

    I seriously hope he doesn't have any vascular injury. That would make it very very hard to recover from that injury.

    I dont see Ferrari losing this. There is nothing from Mercedes about their tires showing they will pass Vettel.....
