Tyres have been gone for far too long... Literally just gave away 3 positions with less than 10 laps left. Hartley was actually catching Gasly on older tyres! Shows who can manage a little better.

No tyres. Not much gasly could do. Solid driver though

I think he was suffering from the collision at the beginning of the race. Several times he complained about no traction. Anyway ...

Can't believe tyres failed Gasly when with 4 top ten drivers retiring, they had a golden opportunity for points :cry:

I don't think the collision damaged his car. It was Vandoornes front wing which touched gaslys tyre. Gasly could have got a puncture but didn't

Probably this was not just the tire. It should be fixed after the pit stop but he continued to be not competitive even against Hartley with much more older tires. I think there was some problem that was getting worse and worse. The final laps when the other passed him, his front tires were completely destroyed which is not normal.

Alonso benefitted from Gasly getting compromised by Vandoorne early on. Screwed over by McLaren.

Every race they have something and lose any possibility to take points... It's starting to bother me that when there is no accident, they mess it with the strategy. With all this, I expect no points in the future... #-o

Gasly pitted and the issue was sorted with new tyres. Gaslys car wasn't damaged afaik.

Hartley might just be better at something called tyre management. He's not an endurance champion for no reason you know

I said this at the start of the season, before a wheel was turned. Hartley would definitely have an edge, if nowhere else, tyre management, fuel saving (lift and coast), the benefits of Endurance racing. Tough day at the office no doubt, no time to dwell too much, on to Silverstone.
