2022 Mexican Grand Prix - Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, Oct 28 - 30

Same race as last year
Lewis driving the race of his life to keep Perez behind

I do think the mediums won't last, but I don't think the condition of the Mercedes hards would be enough to overtake even if they somehow close the gap

Maybe this is what they're banking on ? Lack of a cliff? The amount Max is pushing makes me think 2-stop though

Is max really pushing though?

Max has this either way. Hangs on with med, or pits soon with a 10 sec gap already, and will be a second a lap quicker than the Merc at the end.

Exactly, if Lewis wants to force Max to go to the end he needs to be 5-6 seconds

Max has a huge train in front of him who are all battling. Gonna be annoying to make his way through

[Spoutnik]

Russell can't close the gap on Perez too

That doesn't seem accurate, the closest battle on track is Bottas v.s Ocon, everything else is pretty spread out. Should be easy to come through with blue flags.

Max soon cleared the train. Probably got a bit of benefit too since some pitted

Hams matching Max now I'd say

[GrizzleBoy]

Russel match g Checo too.

Hard to see Ferrari +43 off the lead... Hopefully back to being competitive next time

Let's see what the gap is like when Ham passes the back markers

[Spoutnik]

The Ferrari will be laped at the end of the race I believe

Reported is that FER turned down the engine massively to protect the turbocharger. That will cost them in Brasil as well.

Crofty bored and pretty much asking for a SC . Latifi will probably oblige
