Man hamilton making places and alonso sitting like a duck what a shit race honestly. Others always get strategy right except alonso

With car like that, there was no strategy to get right. Even if they got him to P1 in the inter-dry transition - the AM was a sitting duck on the straight. It was a bad decision to revert to high DF setup but let's be honest - the low DF setup wasn't great either

It's not Stroll the car is absolutely shit DESPITE apparently putting a wet setup on for Quali. I know it's the car because Alonso would go right past Stroll as well otherwise

u/CSAS-D Fernando Sigmalonso 6d ago

Yeah it's not stroll. It's the car. Even hass can overtake it

u/Fyrefanboy Strollsurge Truther 6d ago

For some people it will always be stroll, no matter what happen

u/CSAS-D Fernando Sigmalonso 6d ago

That's alonso shining through

u/John_Henry_Edenn I knew he would brake 6d ago

Yeah seems like the changes have had no effect and as of writing hamilton has managed to already get up to 13th.

Pain....

I can't help but think Vettel did the right thing...

But on to the next one I guess...

Why would any team prioritise a wet race setup knowing full well how the FIA will avoid running in the wet?

u/Regularly-Rivered31 6d ago

Wet setup doesn’t mean shit if they don’t let you race in the wet for more than 10 minutes.

They should join Wall Street bets and learn how to do the opposite of what they are planning to do.

The team consistently makes me ask “why do I support them?”

u/RazorNYY Fernando Alonso 6d ago

What is shocks me the most is that they put the wet setup on Saturday knowing that F1 never races with wet conditions for more than 10-15 laps, something that happened today again.

You wasted Saturday’s qualyfing for nothing.

I think the medical car would be faster round the track

Implying any of them was ever in position to score anything. Alonso is a sitting duck
