Ferrari wanted to pit Hamilton, who started on the hard tyre only 2 laps after Leclerc who started on the medium?

Seriously?

Lmao

 

[Kenai]

I always think this way too. But so often you see it. Are we missing something that these high paid strategists, with their fancy computers can see?

I can only make sense of it if you drop to a strategy with one less stop but even then, you lose so much time and flexibility by racing the tyres as if you're two stopping and then changing your mind surely?

Obviously not? It was baiting Mercedes into pitting Antonelli, and it worked a treat.

Bit naughty from Russell there. Did he give Alonso a little bump there?

 

[Terminal_Boy]

That was rather close from Russell.

Piastri radio - Think a one stop will work?

Pit - Difficult Oscar.

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

Leclerc with the vaguest message ever.

Pit - Difficult Oscar.

Dialing up the tyre management for 50 laps on hard while anyone else around you goes to soft on a lighter fuel load for the last 10 to 15 laps is not going to go well.

 

[Terminal_Boy]

Verstappen’s car turning in like drunken hippo.

 

[Terminal_Boy]

Leclerc with the vaguest message ever.

“John has a long moustache…”

 

[Flibster]

Leclerc radio - Yeah, I can feel what we discussed before the race. We need to discuss those things before doing those.

Another to add to the book of wisdom?

 

[spook2575]

A coded radio message

 

[Mr Jack]

What is Leclerc complaining about?

 

[Kenai]

I wonder 'the things' are?

 

[spook2575]

Why is leclerc annoyed?

 

[jonneymendoza]

What is Leclerc complaining about?

His trolling

 

[Flibster]

Leclerc radio - We are going to lose this race with this thing. We are losing so much time.

 

[Terminal_Boy]

Verstappen launched that one!

 

[iamtheoneneo]

seemed fine? Hamilton just has no confidence in that Ferrari

Yep, nothing wrong with that move.
