Leclerc (P2) cannot keep up with Sainz (P1).

And with all the speculations with Max leaving or not (although...going to MERC?...I don't know...) due to all the Horner gossip....
Hormer is mad if he doesn't give SAI a call 1st thing tomorrow....

McLaren not pitting, they have 3 options,

1 use Piastri to block Charles

2 hope for a safety car (don't recall this track to be riddled with SCs)

3 Lando beat Charles on pace using old tires

edit: option 4, take 3rd and be happy

The issue is : At this moment the 2026 FORD PU s@cks !
Horner and his FORD Red Bull Powertrains Isn't looking like it should be ...
While the new 2026 Merc PU is (already)! extremely powerful !

If MAX thinks about 2026 and his F1 future ...
Well...Then you know it

I think : MAX won't do it .

If the ford engine turns out to be a disaster, like being down on power with 30-40HP, Newey won't be able to make a car so good to compensate for that.

Because we're now looking and say the merc car is a disaster etc, but in reality all the cars of the top teams are really close. Well within 1%

I still think it was strange that RB and Honda parted.
Wasn't that because Honda first said to leave F1 and RB very quickly partnering up with Porsche, and then suddenly Honda said to continue with F1 (and thus now AMR grabbed that chance...)

Looks like a managementblunder from both RB and Honda...

the long story was, (acc to CH) Honda told RB they don't want to continue in F1.

RB signed a deal with Ford (well, they almost with Porsche prior to that)

Honda realised that their engine is the best.

But RB already signed.

Honda then changed their mind.

Honda signs with someone else since RB already committed.

It was Horner's mistake to abandon HONDA .
Horner saw a bigger picture with his Ford Red Bull Powertrains ...
Ford Red Bull Powertrains was/is Horner's plan .
HONDA wasn't happy about that !

You're not fooling the Japanese and now It's too late .
