      And they didnt broadcast any of his laps lol

      When his time lit up, I was like “whoa, he’s second, track evolution must be crazy!”

      Nah, was just him being crazy

      If he keep on going like this I wouldn’t be surprised if Sainz took his place next year.

        That’s exactly what I was thinking. I bet RB tries to get Carlos before promoting Danny. I think Danny’s biggest advantage right now is how much Christian likes him. Though Danny seemed to have pace in the RB19 that he doesn’t seem to have in the AT/RB. I’d be curious to see how Yuki does in the RB19/RB20 for a head to head comparison.

    Great showing by Mclaren, but I still wonder how the cars will hold up throughout the race

    Imagine having a car that’s slower on the second hot lap you do while everyone else improves at least from track evolution

    I wonder if Max has an answer to that lap by Charles…

    Edit: He did.

      1. Their car somehow is 10 kg heavier than last year
      2. Their engine still is the worst one as there is a ban on developing it

      This post and the F1TV commentators both mentioned that the Alpine cars are 10 kg too heavy.
