Its still raining also today heavily. Is it a good idea to get a heavy downforce read wing? Considering the race will be dry we might be in a disadvantage.

Thought they might.
It’ll be a shame if the new wing is only used for the sprint this weekend and never used again THIS season

Do you think they will all go with wet settings? It seems a lot better now as the rain stopped. It's starting. Let's see what we can do on wet conditions.

Can't say I like these conditions much. Mclaren needs mixed between intermediate and dry. Come on Lando and Oscar. Show us something more than that.

I wish they are in a better position at the moment, mainly against Ferrari. I don't really care about WDC, it's going to be hard to get it and mostly out of our hands.

The problem is that Mclaren is better on mixed conditions between intermediate and dry. I'm not sure we are good enough in full wet conditions. I hope both drivers deliver and make me eat my words though. Pity not to have an Ayrton Senna on the team anymore.

I hate those conditions as they tend to ruin our good weekends. What is Lando Norris doing? He is in the danger zone.

They have to find something. These wet conditions are killing Mclaren.

Piastri was a second faster. If Lando matched him it wouldn't be close at all.

Gonna need some massive setup changes to rescue this, if it's at all possible.
