2024 Mclaren Formula 1 Team

Norris should save his tyres and plan for a safety car closing the gap on Max at some point. Doesn't look like he is going to get close in normal racing.

Lando is not having an amazing weekend also. Oscar seems to have a little bit more in him.

VER has black and white flag for track limits. If we had the pace to push him, that would be ideal as he can't make any mistakes.

Maybe a SC opens up some options for us.

This race reminds me of Suzuka

[Emag]

Yeah the tire deg was much worse than expected.

I can’t see Leclerc having enough to get a pass done even if he gets within drs

[FittingMechanics]

I feel Lando's negativity will cause him to lose out compared to Piastri. It has to affect his ability.

The problem is that we have another 20 laps. If tyre degradation is bad, I am afraid of many things.

The hope is Leclerc uses up his tyres tucked in behind in dirty air.

Edit: Leclerc off track and struggling to clean his tyres. This could save Lando.

The hope is Leclerc uses up his tyres tucked in behind in dirty air.

Just made a costly mistake, so maybe they're already fading.

Lando just took a second and a half out of Max in 2 laps, either Lando found pace or Max struggling too.

[FittingMechanics]

VER slightly struggling. I think the gap is too big but maybe he makes a mistake so it is critical to be under 5 seconds to him.

Let's go!

[SilviuAgo]

Lando picked up the pace...from +7 to +4 for VER

Max cruising? Gaps creeping downwards....one can only hope.

He is struggling. They don't cruise like this.
