Kudos to McLaren... Ham's drive was something else... and seeing those pit strategies and tire management dialed in... maybe this season won't be a total snooze fest after all...🙄

As for Ferrari... it’s just classic sloppy Italian mismanagement... ever since they lost their top-tier engineers from the UK and Germany, their pit stops have gone downhill and the car itself? Don't even get me started... I guess they're still leaning on a bit of luck to stay relevant, but that window isn't going to stay open forever.

Time for some sodas.☕

stormybadger8 was quoting this... so it's just a back-and-forth between them.

In this specific context, I'm assuming they mean an actual collision... rather than someone just skirting the edge of the rules...

You might want to read a bit more closely. 🙂

Amanda Kelly said:Who even mentioned a crash?

I suppose we're looking at some serious wing clipping in that first turn... 🤷

Amanda Kelly said:Autosport: "McLaren: Early laps key to beating Red Bull Racing."

The folks over at McLaren don't see it that way. Having a strategy and the guts to actually pull off an overtake—under the right circumstances, obviously—is great.
Red Bull is the fastest car on the grid, sure, but they've got openings. A move into Turn 1 at Circuit of the Americas would be a perfect starting point.

I doubt that's really a smart move for Michael Lee4 to have the McLarens getting caught up in a collision at Turn 1... though I suppose I feel the same way as ☕

Hamilton swapped out his gearbox .... -5 spots

Michael Lee4 said:Qualifying seems manageable... but who can actually stay awake from 4 AM to 8 AM? If I drift off, nothing short of a literal explosion is going to wake me up.😢

I've set an alarm... just in case... it's probably going to be a real battle to the finish.

Funny enough, the chocolate is labeled GEISHA.🤣

Michael Lee4 said:Two liters of wine followed by a liter of coffee... what's next on the menu 🤷?

I just finished my second cup of coffee, so I think I might move on to some chocolate... my stomach is probably going to be a mess later. 🤷

Lewis Hamilton had enough of a gap that when Weber hit his rear tire... he'll probably end up with a penalty, I guess.
