Lewis matching Verstappen on 28 lap old mediums. Pulling away from Leclerc. I still don't understand how he can be as quick as he is without burning through tires.

That race is over.

Man I hope Merc get the car right next year. Lewis is still unstoppable when motivated.
We also gotta hope that RBR somehow messed up development. As much as I want to believe, I don't think they can close the gap. It's a shytty waiting game until 2026.

Cause he is Lewis. He has been pulling up to the Ferraris even when he dropped off for overheating. George dropped and couldnt get back. George doesn't understand what he needs to do to master that stuff. There are clearly levels.

Well that's the thing, no one besides Max has been able to replicate that same type of pace/tire management balance.

I want to know how he does it. Need to do some research.

Peter Windsor had an interesting take, he also pointed out that Max and Lewis drive differently but acco.plish the same thing.

I will see if I can find the video
