The reason is simple. Mercedes and Ferrari are (a bit) faster than us today. Even Tsunoda seemed faster Piastri. Lets see if it will be the same for the second half of the race.

Yeah the race pace is very midfield today. Especially the middle sector just seems to be 0.3s behind the guys ahead

Both cars instructed:
White H10, position 10. White H10, position 10. That will enable double D rate, but it's worth good lap time now.

Maybe some kind of engine power increase?

What am I watching right now. It looks like a joke. Max Verstappen having a spaceship of a car leaving opposition behind and then the chaos. I'm not sure Mclaren can catch either Leclerc or Rusell as the car doesn't seem to be that 2nd fastest that it used to be in the races before Texas. Maybe Rusell for 3rd but Im not sure we can go for much more.

I remember it Fitting. I'm not pissed about Mclaren. I'm mostly pissed about the whole sport that let this farce go on. A team that overbudgeted in 2021 and gained a significant advantage is being let with two easy championships while we had to fight our way through. And they are breaking records done on merit.

The RB race pace is insane with little deg. That’s really where the difference is between it and the field. Class of it’s own

Easily one of the dullest races this year. Only some late SC could spice things up

And then we have drivers like Lance Stroll that lets Max pass without a battle and decides to battle both Rusell and Norris like mad despite not having a chance to hold up for too much.
