By the way, the Spanish commentators are noting that the messages given to Hamilton about how much to lift-and-coast might be driving coaching and consequently illegal. I'm not sure Merc would screw up with that, though...
Well someone at Mercedes has got it wrong about the coaching rules. Nico's engineer told Nico he couldn't say how the other car was doing on fuel; but earlier didn't Lewis' engineer tell Lewis that Nico was OK on fuel but worse on brakes?
The problem is that they don't make the decision soon enough, or even have it in the plan before the race. The guy behind who's just come out on fresh tyres & is 2 seconds a lap faster needs the call...
What oother options do Hyundai have, if Tanak will really leave for Toyota? Will they hire again Mikkelsen, Lappi, Sordo? Or reach out for WRC2 field? Or even stay only with two cars?
