These arrogant motherfukkers!
Ferrari have, I don't think Mercedes has yet, at least not enough for comfort. And if that McLaren pace is representative then that's going to be an issue. The setup wasn't great for the race but that can't be an excuse anymore.Well let's see what Mercedes' upgrade brings them at Silverstone. I don't think Mercedes or Ferrari will bother Red Bull but they both seem to have passed Aston.
We're pretty much back to the 2nd half of 2022 in terms of gap to Red Bull.
I was surprised at McLaren but Lando is like Lewis at Hungary, he just gets a random performance boost there. He's been insanely quick there every year.Ferrari have, I don't think Mercedes has yet, at least not enough for comfort. And if that McLaren pace is representative then that's going to be an issue.

They need to keep developing this year's car so they can at least be in the orbit of the other front runners. If not they are playing catch up again in 2024. If they are 2 tenths off by the end of the year they stand a good chance next year, but they have to develop this year.Write this year off. Hopefully Merc is going to focus its attention on the '24 car going forward.
