I think the car will be strong in S2 but carry a bit of understeer in the longer radius corners like copse (t15) and stowe (t9). DRS zones should be strong in qualy as well. I'm less sure about the low speed stuff.
sector2 has Max written all over it.
Sector1 and 3 is going to be McLaren.
Traditional ckt, punishing on tyres, I won't be surprised if the 'trend' follows the past 4-5 races where it will be Lando eating into Max's lead towards the last 10-15 laps and then there is all-out-war. That is of course, unless there is a lap1 bumper cars event and English media has a field day with #crashgate
Now that McLaren have come out all guns blazing in the media (forget ZacBrown, he was always jealous of RedBull and spewed venom even when there was no direct rivalry) , esp Stella (the more serious player) ; RedBull will have a newfound motivation I feel. The glorious 2021 fight against the numero uno team, was mostly because there was Toto Wolff ready with his new trash-talking punchline every week. Horner was equally nasty in his replies. Both teams will now deliver spectacular performances, I feel.
I think the battle lines are finally drawn, and it's an open fight now onwards. There won't be any attempt to polish the words spoken against each other. This will bring back the DTS crowd for sure. Oh, how must Netflix be relishing this!!
