      Well, on Lando's side of the story would be: I know the rate of how slippery the track is becoming, therefore I should make the call instead of the team. Eventually, his prediction based on his "feelings" was wrong and those at the pit knew better. So Mercedes made a better decision at the end. Dramatic :)

      Exciting race but his team f up. Asking Lando, what do think about inter. What do you think a young driver that can sniff the flag is going to say. Of course he wants to stay out. Drivers take risk against other drivers the engineers gamble on a young driver to make critical evaluations about the car and weather. The difference between Merc Engineers and the engineers at McLaren. Merc was decisive, didn't care about Lewis opinion. There was nothing to learn here.
