      I’m basing on the last two races. Lewis said he feels like he can lean on the car for the first time since the new rules, and the way he’s outperformed George these last two weeks has me thinking they’re figuring it out.

      But you are still correct, it could be a flash in the pan.

        Fingers crossed…the question still is, will this allow them to take a step forward and fight rb next year, which is quiet a large gap, or will this just make them slightly faster #2…hopefully RB makes a mistake and does not improve next year letting other catch up, but unlikely… Also hope either Perez improves or rb#2 gets a better driver to close gap to Max so there is at least some tension there…
