Yeah, I was wondering about that too. I'd like to hear the reasoning behind it. Going long on the mediums seemed more important than usual, especially since they didn’t have a second set of hards. Once you're on your only set of hards, you pretty much have to wait until there are 20 or fewer laps left before switching to a fresh set of mediums to make it to the end.
Imagine a podium in Barcelona or Monaco. Hoping these updates which are expected to be much bigger improvements work like the ones that just workedSSJ4 wrote: ↑18 May 2025, 16:47a lot better. we were 17th and 19th in qualy and slowest car in race trim.
we had very good pace on mediums at the beginning. sainz only put alonso under big pressure in one lap and we kept up with russell and lando. on the hards that was a different story. anyways new flexi wing for barcelona and high downforce package for monaco. all from new wind tunnel
He was frustrated with himself. On the final lap, he pushed too hard into Turn 5, which opened up a gap and threw off his line for Turn 7. He had been hoping to make a move on TSU coming out of Turn 7.OnEcRiTiCaL wrote: ↑18 May 2025, 16:40Alonso had enough i guess.... he was very frustrated never seen him drive the last 2 lap drive like that ,his hand movements and radio chat says everything. He went back.in the box fast and left a car as it is.
Fernando was wrong. AM F1 were right. Staying out and boxing on the next lap was better. If they would have boxed they would have been lapped like Bearman. Bearman had to wait till the lap before the Safety car came in to get released.
Ok Thank you
