I think they should have to refuel themselves. It’d add drama and it makes sense having a petrol station near a race track.Tbh as soon as Ricciardo overtook Alonso that sprint race was over, barring some mild intrigue over Sainz. Everything before then was excellent, everything after was standard modern F1, minus the potential excitement over pitstops.
I’m surprised he already re-upped for two more years after this, given they appear to be moving backwards, and don’t appear to have an answer to Verstappen in recent weeks.I enjoyed that. A little bit different and some jeopardy to boot. Lewis obviously not giving up without a fight but the lack of development on the Merc is likely to cost him this season.
Max winning must be getting tyring for Lewis.I’m surprised he already re-upped for two more years after this, given they appear to be moving backwards, and don’t appear to have an answer to Verstappen in recent weeks.
Once again, the BGP might come down to tire management and strategy, and the 2-3 Mercedes might have something to say against the lonely Red Bull in front.
That inside rim of the right front tire was the problem on both the soft and medium, so it appears it might be a 2 stopper with ALL THREE tires getting a workout…Medium to start, Hard to get you through the middle-late stages, then a Soft to finish.
Might be interesting if someone can hold onto Max at the start, but if he gets away as he did in the Sprint, then he’s looking at a 10-12 second victory, all else being equal!
Indeed. I’d tread lightly around Lewis this weekend, lest Max fuel a tire-ade from Hamilton Straight out of the box!Max winning must be getting tyring for Lewis.
I don’t think he will. As others have suggested, I think Mercedes have invested heavily in the new car under new regulations next year.Indeed. I’d tread lightly around Lewis this weekend, lest Max fuel a tire-ade from Hamilton Straight out of the box!
It’s the pits when you feel like your main rival has been put on a podium by the media for his driving. Lewis can’t rest on his laurels and really needs to get his shit in gear if he is to have a chance of winning the title this year!
Agreed! I think that’s why he’s already re-upped for 2 years!I don’t think he will. As others have suggested, I think Mercedes have invested heavily in the new car under new regulations next year.
Exactly. Why would he do that without assurances?Agreed! I think that’s why he’s already re-upped for 2 years!
;-)
Lando??Exactly. Why would he do that without assurances?
Max is just showing that he’ll win the 5 years after he retires unless George Russell becomes a monster.
Yeah, I probably meant him more to be fair. It was late!Lando??
