Perez will eventually get Lando I’m afraid… There is a lot of race pace in the Red Bull

I agree, P4 the target. Worried about Medium runners though.

I wouldn't count the chickens before they hatch.The car is kind to the tyres and that will make them hold.

It seems that it will be a 2 stop race… Need to keep an eye on Gasly’s lap times on new Mediums… He and Alonso are who we are racing… But Lando couldn’t close the gap to Fernando on this part of the stint…

Lando needs to try to keep close to Perez and see if he can pull him towards Fernando

Indeed our battles is with Fernando and Gasly. We got to put them between us and Sainz.

It’s not about that… It’s about the pace on the cars… Perez as expected got Lando and most probably Bottas will get him too… The question is how much lap time we can lose before they need to change tires, they don’t want to give a tire delta to Fernando who is on the same tire

Yea, Fernando right now is about half a second a lap faster than Lando, but Lando is a couple tenths faster than Sainz and if he can make it to a one stop race, he can fight on Hards on the second half of the race

Its over a second a lap being lost to Alonso. Trying to push to a 1 stopper it seems.

If Norris can match or be faster than Sainz and Leclerc, he needs to stay out

At this moment the Norris pace with hard tyres is not good

Not good at all. Alonso and Gasly have better race pace now.
