RB for sure go to the end on this medium set right?

Bit of Tsunoda bodywork slightly off track

SC warming up no doubt

maybe RB benefit here and checo can get hamilton, then conspiracy theorists would be up in arms that tsunoda's done it on purpose

I think GP is wanting max to tweak the brake balance to look after the tyre temps. I think they going long

Yeah impressive coaching from GP

Definitely, think the Merc race engineers are just trying to keep them going instead of just cruising around

I’d imagine they have done good data from those who did super long on the mediums.

All max has to do is match Lewis on the hards. Sure he will save some tyres to push if needed

HAM +10.6

Merc are deluded here or just talking it up for the drivers, should’ve kept going on the mediums until as long as possible and gone soft at the end. At least with one of them. Silly

Yeah if RB do a Soft -> Medium 1 stop, they've out classed Merc big time. Merc surely have completely misunderstood the deg? Did RB have to run any development drivers/tyres in the practice earlier this weekend? I wonder if they got more data.

Perez did a soft run in FP1 iirc

Yeah think they are just trying to motivate them, they know Max has gone but they think they could get Perez

Totally, there's no way Merc are going to race up to the back of the Red Bulls and overtake them. They don't have the straight line speed, and there won't be a big enough delta.

About 15 laps left, 11 second gap. They'd need to be doing 1 second per lap quicker soon. No chance.

[DGP123]

This one’s done.

Would have change nothing. The tyre deg is too low on the RB. Seen Leclerc at Monza.
