The bigger wing may well slow us down a little but the exit we get here is great. Max complaining of the softs, I think we're just about ok.
Exactly what the data showed! Lol… Good exit out of Chapel allows to build enough (against any car but the RBR of course, lol)

This car, I think, will be fast at many tracks. Until others upgrade.

Will Piastri start to pull Hamilton in?

RB aside, I don't think k we have a drag/efficiency/deployment deficiency compared to anyone behind us. We just are running more DF.

He was cooling his tyres and is now getting closer to Norris.

Norris has to be very careful now as he got a warning of Black and White Flag. Only 3 laps left.

The commentator made a mistake, it was only a white and black flag, we should be fine.

Great result for the team. Unlucky for Piastri that given when the safety car come out!
