The 3 points PIA handed him in Monza proved decisive: kudos to both and to the team!
Thanks Max for keeping the season alive
Ferrari closed the season on a positive note

He braked later and gained at every braking zone (T1, T6, T9), and in the fast corners (T1/T9)
🔵VER lifted before braking into T5, making his lap look slower (did the same at the lap end, dropping 10 km/h vs lap start)

At the SC restart, ⚫️PIA gained 2.1s/lap on 🔵VER, and the race looked over. For short, though: VER was managing, and improved his pace by 1.4s/lap over the next 7 laps. PIA lost 0.7s

In trying not to disappoint any driver, McL disappointed both: not splitting the strategy was shocking, and gifted VER the win!
If VER takes the title, McL’s collapse will be a case study...
PIA was 0.40s/lap quicker than VER: not enough to offset the extra stop
He went from slowest to fastest (despite using DRS for only six laps), yet felt the car was overall even worse!
LEC, stuck in traffic, hit 339km/h
RUS held a 5 km/h edge over PIA (neither used DRS)

🟠PIA on pole with an excellent package: fastest in the slowest and fastest corners, plus good top speed
⚫️Mercedes: least drag... but lacked downforce
🟢ALO could stay full throttle for >70% of the lap!
🔵RBR and 🔴Ferrari had no strengths: lowest top speed, bad in corners…

HAM and BEA ALMOST beat the 2025 record (365km/h by HAM in Monza). HAM was stuck in traffic for so long that he exceeded 360km/h on FIVE laps!

NOR lifted-and-coasted heavily in the last 4 laps, especially at Turn 10 (Fastest one → worst for wear), losing up to 52km/h! (~1s in one corner alone)
Still, by Lap 46, the damage was already done
PIA didn't lift at all

Hards were dropped after poor pace, while Softs ran only as the mandatory second compound: Mediums had better degradation AND pace!

Only 0.5s separates the best (BEA, both Saubers) and worst (LEC, ANT, both Astons) 0–200 km/h times!
Softs launched slightly better than Mediums, while both Astons started on Hards, leading to ‘bad’ starts
