Get into pole, so do your best in qualifying, and then just keep it there and frustrate everyone else or get teammates to do that job.

I tend to agree with this, but next year(s) will actually get to prove you/us wrong or right.

I'm sure the tactic's been tried before with some success and some failures but yes I think next couple of years we see interesting partnerships, new heroes and new talents getting more mature, and I think more and more teams will now sacrifice one driver for another as the rules and points keep changing

There are known to be races favoring cars like the Mercedes and races that favor cars like the RedBull. They go for different aerodynamics, at least. There are big differences between them in acceleration and breaking.
This race was favoring the Mercedes, hence it was somewhat easier for Valtteri. It doesn't really tell anything definitive about the cars. Also Max was complaining about steering issues, so he may not have been forcing the car as usual to avoid... an abandon maybe.

Monza still favoring ATauri also do you think? It would be really nice to see more different tracks or tracks altered a little more different every season also, just so cars cannot just gain competitive edge from years of practice. But it was nice to see Dutch track finally in use and of course, favoring the guy who practices it the most.
