Toro Rosso
Ready for action: A Toro Rosso waits in its seal overnight.
Carlos Sainz Jnr

Lewis Hamilton

Great image of Verstappen and Raikkonen!
You can see that the chasing car wants to overtake on the right where the leading (slower) car is leaving some room. Then the leading car closed the gap.
And that was at the start and not Kemmel straight.
