Did Vettel's front wing failed? Flatspots can't be so bad from such a spin.

Vettel doesn't look so different from 2018.

MErc made a laughable mistake. I didnt even realize they b=put on red tires until lab 20. Rookie strategic mistake. Lol..
Merc only had one set of mediums, so not really a rookie strategy mistake here, but a few months ago, and/or using the mediums in practice. They needed an extra set of mediums but in the race they couldn't do much but use the mediums when the car was fastest at the end.

I’m sorry but why did Vettel feel the need to fight in an unwinable position?

Let him go and then get him next time around.

I'm wondering if maybe Vettel's spin wasn't a result of the dirty air making him lose rear downforce.

I'm also wondering if he'll still be number one driver by the end of the season.

He tore his tyres to pieces. You would be surprises. Kimi has had suspension failure from such a thing

That may end up being the key question.

Maybe Vettel’s car vibrated too heavily because of the done tyres after his spin. That’s why it came off.

Leclerc has been doing a superb job until now. Absolutely calm and stable.
