In fact he has been quite contrite about the fact that Russell is getting more out of the car than he is, at least so far. Russell has been able to take advantage of some others' misfortune because he's been just that bit faster.
The drivers all know what's what, really.
A good bit of any time gap is going to be in the tyres going off in the last sector.
What is good for the race is that the Mercedes seem to have the advantage in all the power mini sectors of the track. Meaning they should have the advantage in the DRS zone.
It also says that they have managed to drop all the drag they were running to keep the car from porpoising, so now that they have a more stable platform to understand they can bring the developments that were planned.
As I predicted, the lead Merc finished way behind the leader. In fact, it was 32.927s behind. Dog shit performance. Feel sorry for GR having to put up with it. No doubt would have been even further behind if CL didn't retire.

GR would have finished even further behind had Max’s DRS worked and he didn’t have that off at T3.

EDIT: In fact, it’s f*cking atrocious.
I’m a big GR fan, BTW

Another one where George had the pace and talent to be in the right place at the right time, but he's on the podium because Ferrari couldn't put a race together with either driver, and the Mercedes is not competitive realistically.
I felt sorry for LeClerc.
Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
I felt for Leclerc, but a Max win means the pair of them are both back in contention with each other. Hats off to the Hamster for a good recovery, but George Russell was driver of the day for me.
Gutted for Leclerc. He drove a near-faultless race right up to the point where his engine gave up.
Merc are very public in stating that they give both drivers equal opportunities, and always have done. Who ends up as numero uno is a function of how the season goes and who's in contention (which has always been Hamilton from 2017 onwards).
George was particularly fantastic yesterday, but so was Lewis. I'm looking forward to watching both of them go forwards through the rest of the season.
