We can not fight against Alpine with one hand. It's impossible...

Wasn't he in front when he got out of the pits?
Got overtaken quickly. Took NOR 1 1/2laps to get the tyre to work. But RIC can’t bring this tyre into the window it seems. Pace is awful

He was, but had guys on softs and mediums right on his tail. He didn't get the chance to bring the tyres in gently as he has to defend hard, ruining the tyres.

Wonder if he is carrying damage after that tangle with Stroll. Awful pace on the hard. Still ridiculous putting him on the worst tyres against cars around him on softs and mediums. Wtf McLaren.

What a stuppid strategy for Ricci. From 8 to 14. Why to put that --- hard tyre???? We were gaining good points to Alpine...but now we have same points for Lando with Alpines.

Exactly… But to be fair, that’s a consequence of his lack of pace compared to Lando… Before their last pitstops he was 17 seconds behind Lando… If he could be closer to Lando, he wouldn’t have been in that position to begin with

Was Daniel damaged from this scuffle with Stroll?

Lando is on the exact same strategy and 40 seconds ahead of Daniel running comfortable in 7th and opening a gap to Alpine every lap… The strategy isn’t the problem here

Daniel must have been damaged from Stroll otherwise I cannot explain why Lando is flying up there and Daniel is struggling AGAIN.

Do not look for excuses with the subject of tires. Lando has the same and more worn tires and is going much faster than Daniel. The difference is the handling and the heat you give the tire with your driving style.

I just explained, he has graining from having to defend, tyres will never recover from that.

Is it possible that he got damaged there with Stroll?
