Couldn't Checo take out Max there?
Max ain't gapping them like he usually does. Fingers crossed!Wow go Piastri!
Do they have to run softs at least once? or can they opt for the Gard tires instead?McLaren pace on the mediums has been really good all weekend. They struggled so badly on softs in the Q sessions for whatever reason.
They just have to run two different compounds, not necessarily softs.Do they have to run softs at least once? or can they opt for the Gard tires instead?
Hamilton is on hard tires, I wonder if he can get a longer run than everyone else, maybe a one stopper
They pretty much reserve full safety car periods for when they have to have equipment on track for clean up or retrieval.Okay, what's a virtual safety car? Is there also a physical one?
I was just wondering if two stops would be the more conventional option as posted by @FLRacingFan (post 46) with a single stop be theEveryone is on a one stop strategy. That’s the usual with these F1 races.
Hopefully Mercedes doesn’t abandon another strategy mid race and pits like 3 times.
Ah. Like now.They pretty much reserve full safety car periods for when they have to have equipment on track for clean up or retrieval.
Most of the drivers seemed to think Pirelli was too conservative with tire choices this weekend and that it would be a straightforward one-stopper with mediums + hards. Nice wrinkle here with the safety car though.I was just wondering if two stops would be the more conventional option as posted by @FLRacingFan (post 46) with a single stop be the
.... never mind safety car..
Wow…think that was by far Magnussen’s worst driving all weekend. Too narrow and twisty there to try to pass.
In any case I think starting on hards was a good call for Hamilton, to do something different when you are not starting in the top two or three positions.Everyone is on a one stop strategy. That’s the usual with these F1 races.

Yep, all good IMO especially after Piastri ran him wide a few laps earlier with no further action.I have no problem with the Sainz pass but F1s heavy hand may have something to say about the racing
