We are losing badly. Just how much did they screw the set up cause I find it had to believe that midfield teams with smaller personel and budgets were able to produce better upgrades than the Paragon.

Might be that the change in fw philosophy or track temps

We need some answers. I have no idea why we went backwards instead of forwards clearing the midfield.

Only way I can see us getting points is if someone in front has a problem, don’t think there has been a gp so far where we lacked so much pace

It's just one race, could be set-up issues or anything. Let's give them 1-2 races to fully optimize the new upgrades before commenting. What's the point in such reactionary comments that don't mean anything yet.

I think it might has something to do with the temperature. Sainz already complained after a few laps that he had no pace. Long runs did look good on Friday.

Perhaps they did screw the set up. That sudden loss of pace cannot be explained.

It's warmer today.

To be honest, McLaren is 6st fastest team here. Depends whether Sainz pits once more. Still looks really close in the midfield. I am optimistic for the next races, I feel this is a off weekend for McLaren.

Sainz: "I've no idea what's going on today – there's no rear grip."

Obviously strange for them too, I'm guessing temperature.

Carlos got past safety car, others behind him didn’t, so they still have time to pit
