16.8 medium tire average for stroll makes you wonder where Alonso where end up. Alonso's hard tire average is already quicker than Stroll's medium run. Aston might be back (at least relative to Mclaren and Mercedes)organic wrote: ↑25 Aug 2023, 18:01@tonisokolov1011 on twitter has made this. As usual
Hamilton's long run looked great

Lawson and De Vries are both at the track and both are under contract to drive for RB in this sort of isntance. De Vries isn't in RB's plans for the future so they have little desire to give him more experience, but it's not optimal circumstances for Lawson to drive 2023 car / a competitive F1 weekend for the first time given there will have been little preparation.SirBastianVettel wrote: ↑25 Aug 2023, 18:19Who'd be Ricky Ardo's most likely replacement if he can't drive anymore this weekend?
De Vries would be the safe choice, and you'd think he would be pretty motivated to have a good showing. I doubt Nyck would say no if they asked, so this must be RB wanting to give Lawson a look while also potentially not wanting to entertain going back down the de Vries well. A touch of pride getting in the way maybe?organic wrote: ↑25 Aug 2023, 18:23

He just arbitrarily removes certain lap times though. Like Lewis drove a 17,5 when his tyres first started to drop. That's an X here. Contrast with Alonso where he keeps a 17.9 from the first lap. You'd think it would be relatively straightforward but you can always make the numbers sing a false tune.organic wrote: ↑25 Aug 2023, 18:01@tonisokolov1011 on twitter has made this. As usual

Confirmed by Autosport, direct Marko quote. I think Riccy will be out for Monza too.
No point putting De Vries back in the car. This is an opportunity to somewhat evaluate Lawson without him feeling the pressure of having to beat Tsunoda.organic wrote: ↑25 Aug 2023, 18:35Marko and pride getting in the way. Surely notvanburin wrote: ↑25 Aug 2023, 18:33
