   Lando did really well, a great drive from a great driver.   
      
   However Alan's wrong to say that he lost out on the re-start "on hard tyres"   
   as he did the last   
   stint on mediums. Also, yes Lando lost out because he pitted under the safety   
   car just before the   
   red flag but he only lost 2 places because of that (8th to 10th). He had a bad   
   start on his mediums   
   (wheelspin) and dropped 5 places (to 15th) by the second corner. To get back   
   to 5th from there was   
   stellar.
