Kiril Varbanov replied to the forum topic Video: Hamilton and Alonso slowing before the DRS line in the group
F1 1 week agoYes, it might. But your other option is to ”push like hell” and overdrive the tires.

Certainly, it’s always nice to hear from someone inside the circus, and I have no doubts that what Marc says is correct.

@keithcollantine – Thanks for the link, the articles talk about wet tires alone.

In F1 world there’s no such term as “team player”, be assured. This is a cruel world and only the mean people win. The nice guys don’t survive.

Tough words, but this is how it works – he [CH] will love to have one motivated opponent less.
