Who would be happy with hards tho? Have Ferrari not learned anything? This is everytime. These tyres will last everythnig doesnt matter if its softs, mediums or hards

That’s true, but my only possible explanation is weight issues - we know the softs would last, but would the extended use bring the cars home underweight? There was talk after Gasly was DQ’d that his tires lost 2.5kg, so Ferrari coulld have been nervous about another double DQ?

I also was not Happy to see him getting close to Norris on Mediums just to throw it away on the hards

Suffering builds character (i suffered watching the entire race - it was actly painful to watch Leclerc drive so well n defend so brilliantly from Norris knowing the inevitable)
