[ 2020 ] Mclaren F1 Team - Renault

So far so good. We should now push for Leclerc if we are gonna go till the end or keep these tyres and try for one stop less in case Ferrari goes for another pit stop. Why are both Mclarens having problems to get away from Grosjean with better tyres?

Carlos is really good driving at the Delta and Lando needs to keep 2 -2.5 seconds to protect his tires, this is making GRO stay on the DRS... This is good for Us though, we are protecting the tires and by keeping GRO in the DRS, RIC can’t pass him and is driving on dirty air

But the question is what are we targeting? Are we preserving tyres to go for one less pitstop and maybe pass Leclerc?

Aparently now Norris has to push cause both Ricciardo and Stroll passed Grosjean.

We have been matching LEC times now for the whole stint... If we were going to make a move, we need to start pushing about now

They're nursing the tyres for a one stop (and staying in range to pit in case of a safety car for a 2 stop or if the tyres drop off too far) - Expecting Lec's tyres to drop off earlier than Carlos or Landos so should start to creep back up on him

[Darth-Piekus]

Whats with Grosjean and his defending today? He has been trying to throw anyone who tried to pass him outside of the stage. I don't think Norris can nurse his tyres now cause Ricciardo is catching up. Also the Racing Point seems to be struggling generally today.

Norris must hold for 11 laps against Ricciardo.

RIC is lapping a couple tenth faster than Lando, he should be in DRS range fairly soon, Carlos seems to be taking 2 tenth from LEC per lap... Last 2 laps will be stressful

Both Norris and Ricciardo are catching slowly but surely Sainz. We might have a battle in the end.

Sainz, Norris and Ricciardo all with consistent laptimes.

[Darth-Piekus]

Norris lost a place but Sainz is still there.

[SmallSoldier]

RIC made the move... Great pace from the Renault’s today... Carlos should be able to keep in front of RIC

Damned Pirellis

Waw what redbull just did they miss a win

NOOOOO

Well Pirellis today costed us lots of points. Good race from the team. We were faster than both Renaults and Racing Points and the idiocy of Pirelli costed us the points of Sainz cause I am sure if the tyres were ok Ricciardo would not be able to have passed us. Anyway. Good Race.

Whats the point difference now? Ferrari must have reached us slightly while we gained points from Racing Point and Renault might have reached us a little also.
