[458 Italia]

Slow stop hamilton

[RossTheBoss]

Leclerc is faster than Max today. They need to simply do what he does strategy wise.

[Greig]

Charles smashing it.

[458 Italia]

Charles is on it!

[RossTheBoss]

Max is going to pit as soon as Leclerc passes him, then charge back through the field. That's the RB plan, I think.

[hakanabi]

We should just stay behind max and preserve these tires until he stops again

[Greig]

Easy for Charles

[ferrari1.8t]

We should just stay behind max and preserve these tires until he stops again

But we have the pace, and our tire management seems better in the cool temps. Let’s hope max doesn’t do anything stupid when Charles goes in the pass.

[458 Italia]

YESSSSSS

[Tifoso Svedese]

Good job!

Now I think a two-stop is on for us. Gapping Verstappen a bit and then cover him.

[totox]

One thing it's clear and we have to give it to Ross brawn, are the new rules that improves heavily the racing

[DJTaurus]

Max is more relaxed. He has a huge points gap and not taking risks.

[ferrari1.8t]

Yessss!!!

[totox]

Now it's time to make a big buffer

[Tifoso Svedese]

Now we need to figure out how to beat Verstappen with Carlos as well. We have a 1-2 chance. Is he saving tyres I wonder?

[458 Italia]

Max sounds stressed

[Greig]

Good job!

Now I think a two-stop is on for us. Gapping Verstappen a bit and then cover him.

Yeah I think we should go for 2 now, Max very unhappy with his car

[drax]

Our tire management looks amazing great job on the factory

[jgonzalesm6]

Leclerc is on mission.

[ferrari1.8t]

Come one baby, let’s get this 1-2 and make a statement!

[Tifoso Svedese]

Yeah I think we should go for 2 now, Max very unhappy with his car

Yeah, it adds the chance of a fastest lap and eliminates his chances at doing a late charge.

What a turnaround from yesterday! The green track seems to have flipped the order around a bit

[Greig]

Norris penalty now.

[WS6TransAm01]

Stay calm. Stay calm. Stay calm

[drax]

Yeah I think we should go for 2 now, Max very unhappy with his car

Yep, if we open a big enough gap we can two stop easily just to be safe

[Greig]

LOL Nando giving Gasly the finger

[RossTheBoss]

Leclerc looks good. But, strategy, reliability, and luck ... Not over until it's over.

[Ferrari312T4]

Is Sainz coming any closer?

[Greig]

Yep, if we open a big enough gap we can two stop easily just to be safe

Carlos is gonna pass Max so we can really cover him now.

[totox]

Now it's a good time to see that hunger Carlos was talking about this week

[Greig]

Is Sainz coming any closer?

Yep
