Don't understand why they are struggling so much there

Agree, losing 0.3+ in S2. Best possible grid slot = 4, only if faster Q3 than Antonelli.

I don't see any potential here

That's the season they are having. Once the gap became huge they had to gamble with the setups each race, a lot of the times it worked out. Seems that they don't have great understanding of the car or to extract needed pace they have to run these semi driveable setups.

Still doesn't look that bad.

Even the likes of Alpine and Sauber are more competitive in S2...

[Vettel165]

Its the tyres…

[Valeo]

Two warm up laps now.
Looks bit better

[Valeo]

Or not

Is Max leaving too much margin in terms of track limits in S2?

Not a fan of this 1st car out on track stuff.

This weekend again just illustrates that the car isn't good enough for any championship.

I think it's because of the two warm up laps

[euv2]

0 purple mini sectors, the car is chalked. P5 at best if MCL and MERC get their laps in.

[Vettel165]

Its the tyres, the softs just dont work on this car, the main problem is s2. Mediums and hards in the race should be better.

[AR3-GP]

That was a nice final lap. They aren't quicker than Mercedes.
