Wouldn't be surprised if they fully sacrifice this weekend and put a whole new drivetrain into the car, just so they have one more for the rest of the season. Starting from P11-16 or P20 probably doesn't make much of a difference when winning is likely all that matters to them at this point.

Good, honestly. No one should have to sacrifice their laps.

Wew. When it rains, it pours.

Edit: Heh Horner said the same thing. https://youtu.be/-IV6NX9OBXo?feature=shared&t=281

Exactly. Every once in a while, you have an off-weekend, and after his streak, he was due for one.

Like he said, it makes no difference. He couldn't get out of Q2. The Red Bull has a big pr9blem.

One weekend out of a season of otherwise total and utter dominance of which has barely been witnessed before = big problem.

Perspective.

If it's true that it's a ride height issue, they should be able to fix it by race time. However, it's a street race without a lot of overtaking. We shall see.

Guessing that's the end of the streak. Unless a miracle happens
