Max Verstappen took the lead of the race at the wet start, and maintained that until the very end. Behind him however, lots was going on due to the mixed conditions. Lewis Hamilton fought back from an error into second while Norris put McLaren on the podium for the first time this season.

in the middle group, a huge advantage is not necessary.
This is mercedes and lewis ? I think this tell very well of your view of point. Thank you for sharing with us.djones wrote: ↑15 Apr 2021, 11:15I suspect anybody expecting Merc to be anything other than fighting for pole and the win will be in for a disappointment.
In my opinion, it's unquestionable that Mercedes had the worst setup problems and most issues to resolve, ranging from engine to handling. Because of that, they have the easiest quick gains to make and they have had 3 weeks or something to figure out what is happening.
And let's not forget this is Mercedes and Lewis. A quite formidable combo that won the last race... a race that was all but in the bag for Max.
Part of me also thinks we have not seen the mythical innovations yet.

it were not only those 100 km, they did several days of testing with the old car as well. So they had a lot of data to work with, while most teams had none. This year the advantage should be more or less gone, though, although they did the same again.

A fair bt longer then. Makes it more interesting, just hopefully not too easy to cruise by another car.

Yes, at least to their credit they have made it clear from the outset what the situation is, until they start changing it throughout the weekend.....Just_a_fan wrote: ↑15 Apr 2021, 12:52Seems reasonable.Wouter wrote: ↑15 Apr 2021, 12:36Track Limits for now.

Only having a total of 3 excursions rather than 3 at each corner makes for some likelihood of the stewards being busy...
Agree. They absolutely stole a win from the faster car last time out with a combo of strategy and a great drive. Absolutely fascinating to see what the gaps are this weekend, and whether they are smaller or bigger.djones wrote: ↑15 Apr 2021, 11:15I suspect anybody expecting Merc to be anything other than fighting for pole and the win will be in for a disappointment.

The corollary of that is that the further back in the pack one is, the greater the risk of being involved in a first lap incident. Especially true if there is a long run to the first corner, as at Imola, and the guys ahead on soft tyres are more likely to get a better start and stay ahead. Those on a harder tyre risk being mugged off the line by someone behind that risks starting on the softer tyre.
Exactly! But you are the one that had commited that sin. You basically just trolled, even riducled, maybe 80% of religious users on here with that comment, basically implying that their Gods are riduclousis!
