[ 2020 ] Mclaren F1 Team - Renault

[Darth-Piekus]

RIC now losing 0.5s a lap. BOT in trouble. Fingers crossed

I dont think it can matter. We cant pass in Imola. It's too narrow.

3.6s stop for SAI. 3.2 for KVyat. If they had done a 2.0s they would have jumped him. These pitstops need sorting

[Darth-Piekus]

Is Norris gonna hold for 10 laps?

[101FlyingDutchman]

Makes no difference now. RUS has totally screwed it for us now

[michl420]

The saefty car stays out so long everytime, 1 or 2 laps less would be fine.

[Darth-Piekus]

And then some think that Mclaren has the same luck as the rest. The fact that in a good day of Mclaren everything goes bad to get as few points as possible and then in the bad day of Mclaren everyone else is getting as many points as possible our of pure luck (Safety Car, Red Flags) or other incidents (Stroll taking out Sainz and Norris for example without a harsh penalty) says a lot.

135 Renault
134 McLaren
134 Racing Point

[Darth-Piekus]

Is that really it? Ricciardo got like 15 points.

135 Renault
134 McLaren
134 Racing Point

I think we need to congratulate the Ferrari pit crew and Honda for this. They really saved our blushes today

On the other hand the Mclaren duo also lost lots of points trough the season due to badluck as well...today they were lucky. I just really hope they will have Monza pace in Bahrain race nbr. 2 and that cars get to the finish line with good pitstops.

They did indeed but we are still much unluckier than Racing Point and Renault. Nothing goes our way in our good day and everything goes wrong on our bad day. Now can the team hurry up with that package? Can they complete the puzzle cause so far they are experimenting.

Also big Congratulations to Mercedes. They have become one of the most successful teams in the history of F1 but all their success is set up with Mclaren's personnel and our own Lewis.

??? .....120 + 15 is 135 Where is the problem?

[Darth-Piekus]

I thought that they would have been much further than us.

While we are close enough yet we must get the upper hand like we did before.

[billamend]

In hindsight, should they have pitted? I have the feeling that staying on Mediums would let them score a lot more points.

Our biggest issue is something we've talked about many times. Perez and Ocon had poor qualifying with cars that are as fast as McLaren. As penance for that they get to start on a better and newer race tire.
