Unexpected win for Ferrari and Charles Leclerc today in Monza.
Second win for him in Ferrari's Gp.
Another missed opportunity for Mclearen, another win lost, with a better strategy and a no fight on lap 1 between them it was an easy win.
Max now must be worried about the situation, without Adrian Newey RBR is not the same anymore.
Yup totally unexpected. I kinda stopped focusing on the race when I thought Piastri was gonna win it. But then I got back into it at the last three laps and was totally surprised that Leclerc was leading. Lol. I guess I'll watch the highlights at F1's YT. It also looks like Leclerc is starting to come on his own. I saw some clips of him telling his team to stfu when they kept bugging him about some brake setting.
And yeah, both of Leclerc's wins are special to him... Monaco and Italy. The former is where he lives, the other one is his team's home race. Good one for Leclerc. Love to see him win.
Basically Mclaren thought that two stints was the way to go (most everyone did so) and Ferrari probably made a mistake that just got lucky and did one stint. Surely the pit stop gives you about 20-25 seconds of break, but then you get fresher tires and go faster, and McLaren had the speed so they thought they could, but somehow Ferrari just kept it going for further and di not lose the position and won.
It's clear that one sting was better option, but looks like it will not be all that much of a good news in the end for Ferrari since they just won by luck. Mclaren will keep on being better and they will keep on getting good results, it is not a secret that we are going to see this situation working for Mclaren for this season and probably next one too.
