I wonder if Leclerc’s tires are done - he didn’t even push ahead of Valtteri’s pit stop to try and grab 2nd
Would be a futile attempt....and only risk his podium. Bottas on softs would be far faster and pass him very first braking zone.
He’s always driven that way in a dogfight. Remember his clash with Webber in Hungary when both were fighting for the WDC?
I am thinking the same but would a different driver really make a meaningful difference? LeClerc driving for his life just to fend off Max last 2 GP.... our strategy and car seem not quite competitive Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I don't like the guy (and I probably will NEVER like him) but getting the fastest lap on used hard tires... Impressive!
Yeah, well done. Now, do I watch him give his horribly predictable post-race interview? For heaven's sake, no flag pole?
Did he get fastest lap at the end? So much for pitting for softs. Bottas certainly didn’t gain much from them
Good point, I forgot that rule! So I think it's good that Ferrari let Vettel keep running after his mistake, knowing very well that Vettel won't get any point, but just to absorb that 10sec penalty. Otherwise Vettel would get grid penalty the next race. I hope Vettel had the engine in the lowest mode after his mistake, to save the engine.
@P.Singhof: try not to rise to the bait. I suggest leaving the ignore feature in place. @kraftwerk: 1 race ban for trolling another member. All the best, Andrew.
