1:20.495 for Hamilton now.

They were saying that all through commentary during practice and quali.

Yeah, didn't see anything quite that bad though in FP.

Giovinazzi time deleted - track limits turn 4

No further action for Kvyat ignoring blue flag investigation

And 1:19.921 for Hamilton

Norris time deleted - track limits turn 4

Today's 'Well held' award goes to Russell for that one.

Albon time deleted - track limits turn 1

Latifi time deleted - track limits turn 1

Latafi time deleted - track limits turn 1

Black and white flag shown for Latifi for track limits

That doesn't really answer the question. That's just what they think are optimal strategies. People were on mediums for 40+ laps. Verstappen will have done nearly 45 when he finishes.
That's the closest thing I can see that Pirelli have published

One way of forcing team orders, of no racing between each other, once positions are settled after first few laps, without being blatant I guess.
Or you could look at it the other way, of being completely fair. both cars have same machinery and same rubber, up to them to do what they can with what they have.

What's the record for number of penalties dished out in one race?

Seem to be racking up track limit penalties this race, as well as the one for Stroll's contact.
