2023 - McLaren Formula 1 Team

They've tried it.

We've barely had clean air this race, this won't be helping matters. Unfortunately we've a battle not just with Hamilton, but Sainz also. Trying the undercut to mix it up.

[FittingMechanics]

A shame he didn't undercut when he was close to VER.

[mwillems]

I think this has to be our win.

We can undercut to hard.
We can stay long.

We might be able to use the meds. It's tight, but the hards are coming to us now. Oh, no, gaps expanded again.

Seems we are now commited to a one stopper.

When he was inside 1 second he could have undercut but now it's too far.

We were not making a one stopper, we are poor on the tyres today.

[Ben1980]

Red Bull have it, but we made them work for it!

Now it's time to fight for it.

Not sure anyobe isn't poor on the tyres. Deg is high in the heat.

That was...undercut not working...P2 at best today.
Funny that we are in position to be sad for P2 and not to win. In Bahrain we were happy if finnish the race.

We can't fight them, they are too good. We've given it a good go thoughm

I just want to point out that VER is not miles ahead - the car is beatable here.

Without that lockup that NOR had - he might have stayed ahead for more laps and would have been able to undercut.

Let's go Lando. Let's get Max.

The lockup just delayed the inevitable the RB may not be miles ahead, but it is faster, and we can't keep up.

[blastdoman]

I think last laps are going to be a hell for Lando. I hope i am wrong...

[Darth-Piekus]

Red Bull is still a faster car. Not by much this time but that is the only difference between Verstappen and Norris at this point.

Lewis is flying here….
