Why not give him 2 runs with the new softs. Better to reach Q3 with only one new set than to not reach Q3 at all permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [โ] Microw@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago (2 children) Yeah. In the end it was Yuki making mistakes what ruined his lap. But they really should have given him two new soft runs permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [โ] GoodEye8@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago I absolutely think he could've gotten a better lap out but when you only get one try in a difficult to drive car you're pretty much banking on luck to have a good lap. permalink fedilink source parent [โ] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 year ago Yeah but they know he has less than 2 hours in the car. How do they expect him to nail it in one go. They could have given him the new softs for run 1 and then depending on how he did, they could have chosen to go again with new tyres. permalink fedilink source parent
