    Totally understand why Haas made the call on wets, surprised more lower teams didn’t try it

    But equally surprised they put both drivers on wets… smart choice for lower field runners surely would be split strategy?

      My view is that they thought they’re so low they might as well send it. What happens if it goes wrong? They finish last in the Constructors’?

        yeh, im more surprised other teams didn’t give it a shot.

        Like why did Red Bull not take a punt with Perez, faster cars, on wet tyres, he could have made up a ton of places if it worked out.
