   Charles had a pace on hard as we can see.

   Hope he doesn’t lose his edge and his mojo after last three heartbreaks…

      @denny I don’t see it. It’s just a new tyre… it doesn’t show he was particularly quick. None of his laps were faster than MV’s on same tyre. Yes there is 9 laps worth of fuel difference so hard to compare but even if you look at last lap of Charles and compare with the first one for Max, he was significantly slower than Max. If they continued Max would have been over a sec a lap faster. + Redbulls stopped pushing really after Ferrari threat disappeared.

         What are you on about.. If they continued Max would be over a sec faster? Are you looking at the same data as me? Until lap 9 they were almost identical on pace with Max struggling to stay within DRS range. Then you’re gonna compare Max’s first lap on hards with less fuel vs Charles’s last lap on hards with more fuel? Are you actually serious? “Max would be over a sec faster” are you ACTUALLY serious?? Not to mention the rest of Max’s stint was not even close to that first lap you conveniently chose to prove your point

            Max would’ve been way faster. These are Max’s sector times after pitting, tyres not even fully up to ideal temps yet, compared to Charles’s sector times.

            Obviously S1 on Max’s outlap is not included as the pit time is impacting that sector time.

            Lap 19
            S2: Max 43.207 Charles 43.644
            S3: Max 25.560 Charles 25.832
            Lap 20
            S1: Max 38.243 Charles 38.457

            These 3 sectors constitute one full lap. Time difference: 0.923s. That’s not “over a second faster” but it is significantly slower, and the tyre difference being as it was, this would’ve seen Max rapidly closing the gap and given the tyre difference that was there now (in contrast to the first stint where they had equal tyres) overtaking would’ve been a real possibility.

            For completeness.
            Lap 20
            S2: Max 43.088 Charles 43.481

            Another four tenths just in the one sector (slightly over 6 tenths gained on the running lap 20).

   Once Ricciardo went to mediums, his pace sort of dropped off a bit…Lando was atleast half a second faster per lap than Daniel in the last third of the race. Even Albon was quicker than Daniel in this period. Weird.
   For a decent part of the race, Albon seems to have been quicker than both the McLarens…am guessing this is because Lando and Daniel were caught in a DRS train.

      @webtel Weird indeed & yes, Albon probably was quicker through Mclarens getting stuck in a DRS train.
