What's the story behind the De La Rosa lap record here?

new idea! Max detonation button, 4 times a year fans can vote to blow up max's engine so we can actually have a competitve race, won't effect the championship at all
That would essentially be a return to a Party Mode button; contrived and not good for the sport.

Red Bull has no hards left for the final stint, so on paper Ferrari should go for an early undercut to put pressure on Perez. But looks like they are happy not to.
This is not too long of a stint for softs (in RB’s case). Verstappen did 20 laps on high fuel. It would be roughly 22 laps on low fuel. I think the RB also prefers the soft tire today which is why they used the hard tire in FP3.
not anymore, no. That's why Sainz should have pitted much earlier

This is so boring but that's what happens when you keep the regulations the same when a team is miles out front. They should've changed it like they did in 2021 after a one sided 2020 but the FIA know what they're doing.
They changed because New reg was delayed to '22 due to covid.
Until qualyfications I expected same as last season, bu then was very excited for race, now Im dissappointed.

Why did they put Yuki on the Hards??? They are much slower than the Softs which they put under Ric car! #-o

I think Max is managing quite a bit. I think he has plenty in reserve. Easily .5s a lap on Perez.

Verstappen did a 32.6 on his softs, and is now farting around on mid 34s.

He needed a lap in the 36s and then a few in 35 to cool down the tyres, his steering wheel was all red. silly pirellis.
