Ferrari simply had more pace... Lando should get ahead of OCOthe EDGE wrote:Track position has cost McLaren dearly, worst still Leclerc’ pace has been rather enviable
Today Ferrari simply had more pace, the gap that Leclerc created to Daniel in the first stint was a clear show of that, they had the better car today... At the same time, starting P7 and P9 and finishing P6 - P8 is a great result for the team... Great job by the team with some damage limitation.Emag wrote:Apart from Leclerc being an absolute beast today, the race didn't go so bad.
Oh I agree, Ferrari clearly had more pace today. But it's a long season, I am confident there will be tracks that will suit McLaren more.SmallSoldier wrote: ↑09 May 2021, 16:40Today Ferrari simply had more pace, the gap that Leclerc created to Daniel in the first stint was a clear show of that, they had the better car today...

Good strategy changing to the Soft tires (OCO was almost passed by GAS in the last lap)... The one stopper wasn’t the right strategy today and the team understood that early enough.
Not a bad weekend! With such a tight battle with Ferrari, there are going to be tracks (like Barcelona) where we may be behind them in raw pace.

We definitely wouldn't have. Both Ferrari's were considerably faster than both McLaren's today. Riccardo's only kept Sainz behind because of strategy and putting cars between them at key moments until Sainz tyres dropped off at the end. Even if we had done better in qualifying it's likely they still would have gotten past.

If it wasn't for yesterday we could have finished in front of both Ferraris. Time for my favorite GP the fantastic Monaco.
