So did Max set himself up as the only driver that could possibly go one stop tomorrow?



If he ends up not racing anyone again it is possible he could do so. Not sure what advantage he gains risking it though.

FWIW

This car is significantly better than last year’s RP, I guess the true tell will be in 2021, can they continue to perform at this level or is 2020 just a fluke for them?

Dumb question as I havent been following: Is Hulk caught up in this rear brake duct issue? What happens if one of the rear brake duct cars gets podium today?

I don't see them DQ'ing after allowing RP to go forward

It is the FIA though so who really knows.

I feel bad for Vettel. This is like an ugly breakup.

Vettel looks to be taking chances with the car that he shouldnt have to, maybe pushing it too much.

Not sure if Leclerc has a better car or what, but something isn't right.

The Mercedes aren’t getting as big of a gap to Max as they did last weekend.

Max wasn't that far last weekend. There was more of a gap between 3rd and 4th than 1 and 3.


If Merc were to disappear Max would be winning by a larger gap.

I agree. Max wants to go for it right now. Hopefully Max can get enough out of his tires to prevent a Mercedes undercut.

I could see them going H-H-S if they can make the hard go 20-22 laps a piece
