    A bit of conservativism from McLaren. I guess they're not confident of having the same wear as the Merc.

    Hope they split the strategy and put Lando on softs

    I'm, guessing they only have used sets left with too much wear.

    Verstappen DNF and Piastri losing a place would be a legendary GB 1,2,3.
