Yeah what I worried about is happening. They are heavily compromised on the straights. Freaking tsunoda just got by. A write off this race. Good to put things back into perspective before the summer break. They know they have to improve these weaknesses more than before now.

We're a sitting duck on the straight, sadly.

As expected, sitting duck on the straights. Going to be tough to get points from this.

This is actually funny. It's like a different series car on the straights. McLaren Honda 2015 vibes.

Lando reporting on the radio that he cannot be in a train, he can't use his pace in S2 but he loses places on the straights. Expect a wild strategy.

They will pit early, asked for 100% pace.

The race is pretty much over. With Sainz getting Piastri out and Norris losing ground so much which I have a feeling he must have goten some damage the race is over.

This is crazy. I can't actually believe how compromised this car is. Everyone is just blasting past.

Note to self: don’t watch the race at Monza.

How was the car fast on the straights at silverstone?
