got a really good shot at victory. voice-verified

Le Klerk's kind of in the picture, but not really, that they're prepared to make the sort of decision that means Le Klerk is definitely going to be third rather than second if it means that Hamilton's going to win the race. voice-verified

That's what Mercedes are prepared to do, even though their two drivers have much, much stronger, clearer title shots at the moment. voice-verified

I think it's gonna be fairly straightforward. voice-verified

I know there's a particular history with Monza and his almost embarrassing F P one debut and the crash, but he's come on so much since then. voice-verified

And as we've discussed before, voice-verified

Even though he's the the guy newer to the game, he's the one of the two Mercedes drivers who has always looked like he's the least under pressure. voice-verified

Even early in the season when things were tighter. voice-verified

I don't really see how Monza adds to that. voice-verified

If he was racing there under normal circumstances, yes, I think he might feel it. voice-verified

Here comes Antonelli steaming in. voice-verified

I think it's interesting that read that his mentality voice-verified

Mentality has gone up a notch because I wonder, in hindsight, after Wolf said what he said in Monster 2025 that Antonelli was underwhelming, that was quite a shocking thing for him to say at the time, and we thought, Oh, this he's just such a young kid, he's so new and raw and everything else. voice-verified

Like, where is that public arm round the shoulder that we would assume at that point he'd probably need? voice-verified
