Strategy will be decided by the rain forecasts about half hour before lights out. If there rain not far from the circuit, expect softs and then the swap to inters. That’s if the race doesn’t get red flagged for a bit of rain - which I imagine it will be. So be a choice of staying out for track position and free change under the red flag or box and swap and hope there’s no red

Ferrari car 14?, Mclaren 3 cars, car 23?

How does that work?

The twitter preview is ruining the format. There are 4 separate images that are cropped in the preview and look connected but are not:

Exactly the same as car 63. Must have “been hit by Checo” as well.

That puts that bit of fan fiction to bed.

The floor edge wing was visibly damaged after the contact with Checo, so I'm surprised it's not listed. Oh well.

Merc don't tend to fit upgrades if they don't have 2 sets of spares..

No spares doesn't sound good for his race.

The damage is visible in the image posted elsewhere in the thread. :roll:
