Was this the fatal overtake? I think this lost Hamilton the second place, that end plate was gone for over half the race, and perhaps cost him around a tenth or two per lap. Around 10 seconds in the whole race, therefore he would almost certainly have been able to catch Bottas and make a move stick with the better balance.
