MODERATORS
I doubt it, everyone else would have put the wets on if it had carried on raining and then Haas would have lost that small advantage they had.
They would have the advantage of not making a pit stop.
Even if they everyone else pitted I'd think everyone else would catch up to them. It's a lot of if and buts, as there would almost certainly be safety cars which would change things up.
If you say so, an 18+ second advantage is quite substantial.
So is driving a car red Bull, McLaren or Merc over a Haas. Not even mentioning the fact that a better driver can be seconds faster in the wet. That 18+ second advantage is not as big as you think it is for a person in a slow car
Yep, Max finished the race 28 seconds ahead of Ricciardo in P8. He created that gap in 12 laps since the final SC. Haas could capitalize on rain and earn points, but winning the race? No way.
They still finished 30+ seconds behind the lead, so not a win but maybe higher
