This night we must analyze what is going on , but we know already we can't find a way to make our car suddenly 1 sec. faster ..
This means that the Mercedes completely is changed in the last 3 weeks, regarding topspeed , pace , setup and downforce to handle the extra power .
We/I don't believe in miracles , but the *multiple leaked financial and *technical FIA information from Shaila-Ann Rao works like a miracle for the Mercedes !
And Ocon got fire after the sprintrace !

It looks bad but we'll see how it goes throughout the race. That the tires went off quickly on the bulls is concerning as the softs were lasting longer at previous tracks while the Mercs tires went off and they had hards on. It may just be this track.
