📘 23.h3?!
It's not going to be accurate, and White loses the opportunity to take an important e3-pawn.

📘 27.Qe1?!
Carlsen has missed the only chance to get counterplay and fell into a passive position.

📘 23.Qc1!
Preparing Bd1-b3 in order to seize the a2-g8 diagonal. This would transform the passive bishop on f3 into a terrific piece now that Black has no light-squared counterpart.
23.Qb3?! Nc4
23.Be2, in order to control c4 square, is also interesting. However, the Kramnik plan is more precise.

📘 1.Bf1!
A typical plan in such positions.The bishop is transferred to the long diagonal where it will attack Black's queenside.
1.a4 it would be met by 1...g5! and black gets the initiative on the kingside.
1.e4 b5! 2.Bd3 (2.Bf1 b4 the e4 pawn is lost, however, White's two bishops warrant enough compensation for the pawn.) 2...Bb4 with the idea of 2...Nc5, Black pieces are getting so active.
