Would laugh my heart out if Max wins the next 3-4 races in the row. Imagine a nearly impossible scenario, and after that the WDC is again wide open. But we know the reality, maybe because the gap is nearly 50 points now the pressure is much lower then before. Sometimes being an outsider is better, lets see how the standings will look after Spa. If its the same then we can say congrats to Mclaren they did a better job.

turn 14 Max is 0cm away from the wall ,he is taking risks and coming out of it unscathed its just not about car or driving talent its about precision .maybe spending countless hours on sim helps with that.
You do understand that 0 centimeters means that he simply crashed into it, what kind of precision are you talking about? #-o

He himself does not share anything. He has admitted as much with Perez.
The team are free to share data of course.
But driver to driver tips m. Never heard of that from Max.
That's like the default standard in F1. Drivers will typically not go out of their way to help their teammate. So long as Max isn't making any kind of fuss trying to block the other driver from getting his data, then nothing he's doing here is particularly selfish or abnormal.
Which is what I said if you read what I wrote. He does not share, and that's what's expected. He cannot block the data either, even if he wanted to. The engineers decide what is disseminated to the drivers.
For Sure!!

By the way, how are things looking to Max and Yuki this weekend. Missed free practice. But also is it that McLaren is not as competitive here?
For Sure!!

Any words about the rear corner upgrade?
Max complained about cold brakes at some point. Canada is quite demanding on the brakes, drivers usually suffer from overheating. I'm wondering if maybe they are tuning the system right now or maybe I'm just wishful thinking.

No it means he brushed the wall just enough not to cause a major impact on the car.that data comes from official broadcast not me .precision in terms of steering inputs braking points and many decision that comes with driving an f1 car.felipe massa for example was known to take different line on the same corner which meant his laps were not consistent.

I think there' no upgrade here. Nothing in the FIA document, nor in the team's words or van Haren's articles. Maybe it'll come in Austria.

Nothing 'abnormal' - RB21 struggling with understeer in the slow chicanes, McLaren the class of the field (they did run 'future parts' experiments for entire FP1, that's how confident they are) in those chicanes (actually this track is nothing but 5-6 chicanes, 1 U-turn and the rest straights). Mercedes looks strong (close to McLaren) - they were hiding less in quali sims, but did hide more in race sims. LeClerc losing two sessions of practice because he thought 'doesn't matter I can still get back on track' despite locking up and sliding into the grass in one of the sector1 chicanes. Williams looking good as there are no meaningful corners on this track.

Lambiase spoke in Imola about the rear corner upgrade coming in/after a month so could be here or Austria. A cooling tube from the main body to the corners in hollow suspension arms should do the trick

Be interesting to see what that looks like through an infra red camera during a wheel change.
