Brundle was honest - he noted how far ahead Max would be if the race was clean without incidents. So in pure race pace that would be at least 10s faster than the next two teams.
I’m all for Alonso this season with his stupendous performance, but Max and RB’s package is still the package to beat. AM need to be smarter to beat RB and Merc later into the season. Sucks that Alo’s strongest performance yet was hindered by a rear braking issue.
If you wanna see how fast Max is, just compare him vs Checo…
I wouldn’t say he had to push. The only actual pushing he did was to get out of the DRS zone and make a healthy gap, which he achieved with ease. The rest was just managing tire temperature because it’s a track where you have to push to keep temperature in the tires. He couldn’t cruise the laps like he could in warmer climates with tracks that have more corners.
