"We were so close to Ferrari and Fernando and I tried for more, but went slower by trying too hard - overdriving and paid the price," George told SkyF1 after the session.

? He set fastest lap on new hards.
Mind games mixed with getting what he wants. He's trying to pressure Hamilton's garage into making choices that would help him out by making it seem like he has the upper hand.PlatinumZealot wrote: ↑28 May 2023, 17:09Fastest lap in the rain is a good sign.
George has a boring habit of artificially closing in on Lewis and asking for team orders, only for his tyres to burn out soon after. Not sure what he gets from doing this.
Sorry but way way too early for any such type of judgement and I've not seen much PR about it.AR3-GP wrote: ↑28 May 2023, 18:49At this point, what the drivers were doing is irrelevant.
I don't know about you all, but I feel like there's been a fair bit of PR polished press regarding this upgrade. Hamilton is doing his best to put on a positive face but honestly if you look at how he struggles to really say it's better after the race today....It reminds me of all the carefully worded statements when the W14 first launched, only to find out Hamilton was saying it was mostly the same problems as last year, as the season wore in.
I'm not sold on the upgrade package at all. Time will tell. Hamilton won't hide his dissatisfaction for much longer.

Ocon being in front was annoying as couldn't see if he could stay in touch with Alonso, but even if could it wouldn't have meant much around MonacoValeVida46 wrote: ↑28 May 2023, 19:19This.
Never understand why Mercedes upgrades or press releases should be treated with more scrutiny or reverence than other teams.
Was a good result for the team today, but by christ you wouldn't know it reading some of the comments.
Merc is the one who wrote an apology letter to fans after finishing P4 and P6 in Bahrain...ValeVida46 wrote: ↑28 May 2023, 19:19This.
