Anyone know how many laps the red bull softs had on them? And same for Mercedes? Pirelli sheets say no new softs for either

I think tracks like this and Baku struggle a little with the new cars as the slip stream effect isn't a strong as the previous generation

[Mogster]

Max complaining about porpoising?

[TNTHead]

The big question is: can Merc extract competitive race pace on the hards?

[west52keep64]

I wonder if the porpoising on the Red Bull will trigger the sensors, could they be DSQed?

[chrisc90]

Well we into the soft window as predicted by Pirelli. I thinks deg be much lower here

Max has started pushing harder

[chrisc90]

I don’t think it’s porpoising… it’s riding the kerb in turn 2. GP has told him to attack harder in turn 2 and sacrifice 3 as better overall

It's not porpoising. GP told Max to push harder at turn 2 and take a more compromised line in turn 3. Max tried pushing more in 2 the next lap, but said he struggled with the car bouncing as in (bouncing over the kerb) at turn 2 specifically. Nothing to do with porpoising.

Definitely, gap from Ham to Per has stayed the same. Max finally using the tyres for what their worth

Max still improving his laptimes on this old softs.. RB are gonna 1-stop it soft-hard maybe?

GP told him to reduce lift-off by a full second just before Max pumped in the better times. Might be using the tyres too much though

His tyres look very good
