    Carlos Sainz’s racing IQ is insane.

      I loved how he had to even spell it out for his team that he was doing it on purpose when they told him norris was .8s away.

      George: I’ll just take a slightly wider line in than Lando and take him on the corner exit Lando: hold my juice box!

      Or sit them at the back with 1 tyre compound, just to watch them meddle with the middle of the pack

    Hamilton got what he wanted.

    Message that Russell needs to push, Russell pushes straight into a wall, Hamilton takes 3rd.

      Nothing to do with Hamilton. Russell was following Norris’s line. Norris clipped the wall before the corner. Russell clipped it at the same place, just a bit harder and broke the car. If he didn’t break the car he would have gone around the corner just fine.

      And RB making pitstop strategy mistaken. Complacency from being on top too long.

        Just bad luck, really. They gambled and it didn’t pay off, they probably knew that strategy was a big risk

        Don’t think RB cared about points here. They risked it all to continue their first place streak with a reckless moonshot strategy, and it didn’t happen. This was the most likely outcome, and they knew that.

        WDC and Constructors are still easily theirs.

        I wouldn’t call it a mistake, the SC just came at a bad time for them.

      They had to finnaly Ferrari has some darn strategy

      Ferrari tried to sacrifice Leclerc, but in the end it was just a double stack pit stop right ahead of them and then driving mistakes by Leclerc himself.

      Maybe the trick is they need to actively try to sabotage one of their drivers to have a strategically decent race.

      That’s an interesting take, would have been great. But reality is it is very hard to overtake on that track unless you have at least 10kph speed difference and the person ahead has difficult drive. Lando is a good driver and has kept Lewis at bay previously.

        2 things. Russell almost got by Lando and Lewis has much more experience than russell. The combination of these things leads me to believe that Lewis would have gotten past Lando. Once Lando would have been cleared, Sainz would have been a sitting duck.
