I think we have a pretty good car for the season. The only thing I would wonder about is whether DRS is maybe just a smidgen too powerful. It is good at this track, and Barcelona, so maybe not the best tracks to judge.
Soft was the race tyre for me – I was slower over a stint on Supersofts but the Softs were in the sweet spot all stint, except when I was spun and later crashed by myself as the tyres are garbage when they get superhot from a spin. Early stop as the Ultrasofts were no good – 1st flying lap on Soft was already quicker than best UltraSoft lap so it was the right call.
Tyres very sensitive, super was way the better tyre for me and lasted longer, but you’ve always been good on the harder compound. Extremely impressed with sophistication of Dominguez’ tyre modelling – but I will have a go at getting them to cool a bit quicker after spin-out.
