Poor showing from Stroll. Nowhere near Alonso this weekend. Not surprised with his DNF.

The plus is that will allow a team outside the "top 5" score some points today.

STR, come on.
1 sec slower per lap than ALO.

Sainz.

Fast and consistent. He gives also very good technical feedback and can help to develop the car.

Car is just slow in race trim idk if it’s deg related or just the car being slow when it’s heavy on fuel

STR destroyed the race of ALO too. They looked good on the medium, PIA just sliding. Now they have to manage for such a long stint…

McLaren’s are super quick in race trim. Look at norris on old mediums. Still over a second ahead of leclerc

I think the medium is much better than expected. They need a SC 15 laps before the end, than ALO has a chance. Otherwise P7 or 8.

Yeah the only fun is at the end on low fuel and new tyres.

Such a shame the car has not got high fuel performance at the moment as it’s clearly got inherent speed.

Huge test of in season development though.

With the blockage that Hamilton is doing to Piastri and Fernando he can't even get close...

We are there, between McL and MB. Something needs to be sharpened a little more.

Or that things work better later, with less heavy cars.

We will see ...
