Why are the front runners continuing to take life out of the tyres they're going to be racing on? Or has Hamilton put on a new set?
No - just put 8 laps on them.Because in quali, they're getting faster and faster with use, within the bounds of fast / cool / fast / cool.
It's dilemma - if you change to newer ones, you won't have time to get them to be faster.

Looks like merc can't switch the tyres on, so need the laps to get heat in. Derek Smith said:
Shame for Sainz. He looked as if he'd do something special today. He'll have problems getting back to the front tomorrow.
LH puts in a flyer.
Will Perez lose his time? I've not seen anything to suggest the Norris incident will be investigated.
The fact that LN still made it through to Q3 anyway....reckon that makes any difference to stewards decision if it gets taken up at all ?LH puts in a flyer.

I think Lewis was still looking to find the balance. Scruffy session before that lap.Gassing Station | Formula 1 | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
