As we know the RB19 had to run with a higher suspension setup to avoid floor-plank damamage at the bumpy COTA track .

But......'

By the RB19's higher suspension setup , it was required to run with a huge rear wing to get the nessesary downforce .
And that made the RB19 slower than LEW's W14 with the cheating 2024 test-floor who was sitting extremely (too)!low .
On top of that and as know , MAX brakes (brake pads) really s@cked throughout the whole race and that cooked his tyres too !

As I said : It's a small miracle that MAX managed to bring it home and even win this race .
Let us not forget that MAX started at P6 with a bad RB19 !
Ohhhh....Man ! What a driver !

It's actually a blessing for Merc that LEW didn't win the race as Wolff would have erupted like a volcano
