All things considered, good job to Leclerc! Infront of 2 world champions, just behind his 7 time world champion team mate, and only 45 points behind Russel.
Although I’m fully expecting Verstappen to climb above him by the end of the season, and probably Norris as well.
The 2 leaderboard fights I’m interested in are -
Whether or not Hamilton can pass Russel. I don’t think he has the pace to do it, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Russel dnf one or 2 more times.
Hadjar v’s Piastri, number 2 vs number 2. If Hadjar can keep up his current performance, then this should be easy. But I wouldn’t discount Oscar to make a performance come back. And I can’t see Lawson beating Hadjar enough (or at all) to beat him on the standings.

In front of 3 world champions, Alonso is somewhere down there!
