   Not quite within 10 laps, but a victory nevertheless.
   Stroll & Sargeant had good races, which was important for both, but especially the latter.
   Tsunoda was again a bit questionable with his defending under braking, but pitting for the FLAP point was a good move.

      Finally, as I expected, Mclaren overtook AM for P4.

         Red Bull’s revenge? – I’m sure they’ll be back in form.

         McLaren eying fourth place – Not impossible, but I doubt they’re going to catch AM in points anymore despite effectively having two drivers versus one advantage.

   Perez on pace to lose P2—-while his teammate wins again.

      After the DSQ for Hamilton it looks a bit more comfortable for him now!

   The fact that Aston Martin’s reversion to the Qatar spec and it being so much faster has to be both worrying and embarrassing for the development team. They better take a new direction and fast. They seem totally lost.

      Was the Qatar spec faster though? Alonso was on the Qatar spec, Stroll with the upgraded spec. At about mid distance, Alonso was about 9-10 seconds ahead of Stroll, but he had run two stints on mediums rather than hard/medium, when the hards were slower for all other teams. And also, Stroll is Stroll. Too early to say if the upgrades are working or not, though we can probably rule out a McLaren type step up.

         Agree, I think the new spec seemed faster, Stroll wouldn’t have got so close to Alonso otherwise. I’m sure once they figure it out properly and have Alonso using it, then it will be a definite improvement.

   Perez seemed to struggle every time his tyres got more than 5 laps old. Russel seemed to struggle the whole weekend, I assume an issue of only one free practice.

   P2 between Hamilton and Perez will be touch and go, but I think it more depends on Perez out of the two of them.

      I dont understand why Perez is always so far behind Max. Just copy Max, do what he does.

      I’ll show them how its done.

      They should let me try one weekend in Perez’s car. I swear I will go as fast as Max. Just let me try, once?

         If everyone could “just do what Max does” we would all be able to be multiple world champions, that is BS.

   I wonder what Alonso could’ve achieved had he started from 8th or 9th on the grid. I strongly believe that Russell, Perez and Leclerc would be crying in the end.
   Alpine won’t get them, so fifth is safe. Aston can now fully focus on 2024 (something they should have done after Austria or Silverstone).

   the best years were the earlier years; when Ayrton Senna’s MINDSET was bringing, monitoring, and contolling perfection —- more than any other team & driver at any other timeline in Formula 1. And any other driver within any other ‘class’ of auto racing.
   At the timeline when technology was lesser advanced.
