He had to lift but then he missed the braking point when he noticed it was back to green. In any case colapinto screwed him.RacePaceDemon wrote: ↑19 Oct 2024, 00:25Lewis had to lift due to the yellows.napoleon1981 wrote: ↑19 Oct 2024, 00:22How come George can put in a lap going early and Lewis blames the team for a stinker under the same conditions?

What are you talking about he was almost 4 tenths up on George in S1napoleon1981 wrote: ↑19 Oct 2024, 00:42Was already way down in sector 1...RacePaceDemon wrote: ↑19 Oct 2024, 00:25Lewis had to lift due to the yellows.napoleon1981 wrote: ↑19 Oct 2024, 00:22How come George can put in a lap going early and Lewis blames the team for a stinker under the same conditions?

Really happy because it’s been a while since we’ve been on the front row. It was a pretty tricky session, but really pulled the lap together in the end. My last sector was really strong.”
“Real shame for Lewis, he was on a pretty strong lap as well and he got caught up by the yellow [flag]. I think we both should’ve been up there.”
“We managed to get on top of [the car and pace]. We knew we had potential in the car, I don’t think we made the most of our quick laps this morning. The car has been feeling great so far with these upgrades. It’s clearly close out there, but definitely surprised ourselves a little bit with that P2.”
https://x.com/fiagirly/status/1847411722962784662Just got unlucky with the yellow flag. It is what it is, I was 4 tenths up.
The good thing is the team has made a step with the car, the upgrades have clearly worked. Really grateful to everyone back at the factory for all the hard work.
It’s not the end of the day. Tomorrow we get another chance. We did a great job in between [sessions] to make changes to the car and it’s always a bit of a gamble cause you don’t know whether or not it’s gonna work– and soon as I got out of the car it was night and day difference. It was great work from the guys in the garage and then Bono and Mike.
Austin is all about rhythm. That yellow screwed Hamilton, what happens after is a symptom.
Lewis is absolute beast in sector 1 here, always has been.
It will be fine for qualifying because the temps will be lower. And then the temps will be higher in the race, where they will struggle.
You have more faith than I do. Merc really don't know what's going on with the car. Lewis starts 7th...and George starts 2nd but somehow they end up together at the end. They're like the Haas of the top 4 teams. Flatter to deceive.
It's not him. It's this useless car they've created. It doesn't lean toward any setup. One driver sets up foe the race, the other for quali. But they manage to converge during the race. This car has no strengths...its vanilla.GrizzleBoy wrote: ↑19 Oct 2024, 20:40At SOME point George needs to start setting the car up for the race because going backwards every single time isnt a good look.
