So long, and thanks for all the fish!
Norris waves to everybody that lets him through. Just because the bloke he passed was in the same car, people lose their minds.
Ricciardos greatest strength is late breaking. That is where he gets most of his overtakes from....and he is one of the best on the grid in overtaking. However, the McLaren doesn't seem to be as stable as he'd like under breaking and that is where he is struggling.
All this talk about his driving style hinges around that.
The McLaren, traditionally, has been about high end speed at the expense of cornering speed.
Looking at the speed trap data, this continues to be true. https://f1i.com/news/400883-bahrain-spee...all-3.html
@Bahrain, Ricciardo was 3rd fastest in the speed trap at the start/finish line and 8th fastest at the other speed trap.
Interestingly, he was ahead of Norris in both.
More interestingly, he was behind the crap teams like Haas and Williams....both of which have similar issues with cornering at pace.
Danny Ric and McLaren need to work out some kind of compromise for the benefit of eachother.
