It appears to me, and correct me if I'm wrong, team principals of these F1 teams don't get fired all that often. However, Mercedes is getting very close to Ferrari at this point. If then end up in 2nd you have to think that there are major changes at Ferrari right? I mean if you basically have the best car on the grid and finish 3rd as a team doesn't something have to happen?

Ferrari will axe Binatto if Max wins another title but they really need to replace the strategists. That car is good enough to win a title f the pit wall doesn’t keep blowing it.

Max is pretty good.

Merc is going to be well clear of Ferrari by the end of the season.

what about medium-medium-hard-soft?
20 second time loss for a pit stop, that would have put him even further back. They should have just extended their run on the second set of mediums, then pitted for softs with 18 laps left. Not sure if they would have won, but I think that would have given Leclerc a fighting chance against Max.

I love that Alonso just keeps chugging along. Will he be like 43 or something at the end of the contract? Who gets his seat at Alpine?

Honestly, I feel like Ocon and Alpine strat has kinda screwed him a couple times now. Not really shocked by the move.
