Sainz doesn’t seem to have the drive of the final corner before the long straight that Max does. Just like Charles didn’t being stuck behind Ocon
I don’t know how I did that ! Sorry , the top,line of course is you , bottom 2 are me Anyway DP is way better like I said . ****. If the mods could amend my f up , I would appreciate it please ****
What's utterly crazy, given how Ferrari came out of the blocks and how bad the Merc is.,.. Merc are closer to Ferrari than Ferrari are to RBR. They're having a bloody howler. Urgh!
Merc aren’t closer to Ferrari than Red Bull. When Hamilton made his final stop a few laps before the safety car occurred , he was nearly 30 seconds behind Sainz.and 19 behind Verstappen. George still needed to do another stop. The Safety car gave Sainz the opportunity of a free stop otherwise he probably wouldn’t have stopped again.
Only because Ferrari have had about 6 mechanic retirements and Mercedes 0 without that the gap be like triple what it is now
But that has been Ferrari’s Achilles heel for over a decade now, reliability. Merc to their credit very rarely break down.
