Conversely, what excellent conservation of tyres by Ferrari in the heat. It'll be fascinating to see if this is peculiar to these high track temperatures or if we'll see more of this sort of thing. It's clear that Ferrari have built a decent car this year. Look at Raikkonen's comeback.

Seems to me the MB tire issue started with wasting a set of meds in Q1. When Hammie complained about the wrong tires after his stop I could have sworn I heard "all that we had left was well worn mediums". I seem to recall also, that MB have been relatively hard on tires for a long time.
