I think Laurent was plenty capable of doing both things.

It seems there's a tendency to want to do race strategy by committee, which doesn't work.
Anyway, I look forward to the end of these regs!

Ferrari came out strong at the start of the current regs back in 2022. I'm quietly confident they'll do similar for the new set. Ferrari also understood the assignment in developing the new engine for the turbo-hybrid era, so, I have more confidence for the future.

I think the "they" in this case is Helmut Marko and I'm not sure the RB GmbH management are going to renew his contract when it expires.

Well, that have to say the car is shit to make Max look better..

I think he's supportive of them staying in the team because almost by definition they aren't a threat, and I suspect there's a clause somewhere that limits their performance. We see nasty Max when his teammates start to win.

Exactly. Max is good, but he's not got himself to the front alone, despite all the hype.

It's the FIA's fault for demanding the impossible of Pirelli. The Lusail circuit is an outlier for tyres but Pirelli can only make 5 (or 6) compounds for the year.

I can kind of see Piastri winning from Verstappen with Lando 3rd. Looking like an Oscar track.
