How so? Bryan keeps telling Leclerc to keep up the LiCo, not that he wasn't doing it. Either way, the second stint is hard to reasonably discern pace wise.mwillems wrote: ↑22 Oct 2024, 20:03I don't get the post, it's confirming he was not lifting and coasting as instructed? This seems actually contradict your point.ScuderiaLeo wrote: ↑22 Oct 2024, 18:46How do you compare drivers in midfield cars like the AM or Haas to drivers who are in the best cars? They rarely directly race each other and are aiming for different goals (points vs podiums).
Leclerc had to Lico a ton, according to his radios. You may be able to use Sainz as a comparison for this as he was not asked to Lico as much.
I think Ferrari were the strongest by far on heavy fuel, which gained them a huge advantage in the first part of the stint, which they could then manage to the finish line.
