Leclerc should've been double stacked. He was right behind Hamilton. But the pitstop itself takes all of 2 seconds to be done.
He should've waited and gone for the soft tires. Could've been in Albon place or better if this was done.
He did fight valiantly with the tires that were done. But he needs somebody to tell him the bigger picture.
Just saw the video. He's told about remaining laps (17) and having new softs. Sees Lewis pull in, decides to stay out instead of waiting behind him.
This one's on Leclerc. But he has to tell his engineer to come up with all possible scenarios, if he's not able to think all of that in the moment.
Boy has talent, needs a guide.
It was touch and go. Difficult for him and Brian to see all the moving pieces.
I was thinking he should come in, but didnt know where he would have came out.
And the soft tyres seemed like they would be shot in less than 10 laps.
He raced well but has reason to be dissapointed with the big picture. The team is way off Redbull, McLaren and I still feel Mercedes. Russell is known for his gambling and I just have a feeling the Merc could have been setup too much towards qualifying.
Even with that Russell had decent pace but was in traffic. So was Antonelli behind Hadjaar.
Williams and Mercedes are hurdles before Charles and Lewis can even dream about another podium muchless a win.
