The McLaren race pace is just insane. It’s their driver and constructor championships to lose this year.

But who knows, stranger things have happened. Mclaren was on nobody’s radar when last season started

depending on how long that sc session takes (how many laps) will probably determine if the mediums for Max are the right choice....

Interested to know how the tire strategy will work out: NOR and PIA on hards - VER on mediums.

McLaren expecting 1 lap of intense rain soon.

McLaren warning NOR that rain will come quicker and a bit longer than 1 lap. Hesitation: keep the hards or change for inters ?

Was just said on mclaren team radio....: "Lando we did not fit the wrong tyre..."

You only say that if you've fit the wrong tyre......

So mediums is the right choice
