Smooth surface plus high speeds equals huge tyre forces and wear through sliding, especially front end. Pirelli is wary of cuts seen on Friday. No known concerns yet post Sprint, but investigations are ongoing. #F1

Was that the fullest Sprint ever? Yuki did well at the start to helpax, after that it was all quite processional. Good drive from Oscar, but there was precious little action. #F1

McLaren has spoken about Piastri helping Norris for the title in view of the threat Max poses. The decision, a quick 'no' from Piastri. He's still in the fight, after all, so can't really blame him. #F1

Speculation surrounding the Madring not being ready for 2026 is "nonsense" I'm told. Lots still to do, of course, but plenty of time. #F1

How and why were marshals on track at Turn 1 as the field came through? So soon after Mexico, that demands an explanation from the FIA. #F1

New PU elements for Yuki Tsunoda, plus set-up changes and a different spec rear wing mean he'll start the Las Vegas GP from the pit lane. Not a huge penalty given he was P19... #F1

Curious one for Mercedes. Honestly don't know how this will play out - I assume DSQ is a possibility as cars were technically not in parc ferme? Curious to see stewards outcome. #F1

There's something glorious about seeing an F1 car in a four-wheel drift. I'd advocate for tyres that give much less grip if this is the product. Lap times don't matter; I want to see driver skill, and we're seeing it clearly right now. #F1

FIA has confirmed there was a fault in the manhole yesterday which has now been fixed. All others have been checked and additional welding applied to 14 manhole assemblies. Again, brilliant job by the marshal that spotted the issue in the first place during FP2 yesterday. #F1

FIA on the second stoppage: "Some Race Control personnel remained on-site when the session was restarted. They reported that the manhole cover was moving as cars passed over it, which led to the session being ended under red-flag conditions. Further inspections are underway." #F1
