Mercedes is ahead, but within touching distance from Redbull. Redbull can easily recover from this setback as Mercedes has failed to fully capitalize on this.
Sometimes they try to be too clever for their own good.
like I said, it was clear to me that they should have gone into the pits.
I saw it after turn 3 on the warm up lap. And Toto is wrong.
They did not do the right thing.
If they pitted and everyone else did not, then they would have come out with a clear advantage, if everyone else had to come in after a lap to change over.
So they actually flipped a win-win situation to a loose-loose.
