Some reports saying it was a MGU-H issue... May they return to the new spec with a new MGU-H??

We will see soon..

Wow, just at the same time :lol:

It's an upgraded unit, or only a new "old" spec PU??

Hopefully that means the problem was not in new engine per se, but something incidental which won't happen again 0-o

Cos they did not know where the problem was. No point replacing a faulty engine with one exactly the same.
When arguing with a fool, be sure the other person is not doing the same thing.

Maybe it was some "random" MGU-H failure, and the other new spec ICE can be on the pool for future races...

Damn MGU-H.. :roll:

Great news, it just makes sense. Now hopefully they'll put Gasly on the Hypersoft tires to start with so that he'll get past both Williams and Saubers as soon as possible. The Toro Rosso is supposed to be good on that tire anyway.

I think its better go to Supersoft and then bring the hypersoft for a last stint fast with low fuel...
