迈凯伦认为法拉利在赞德福特最快，但可能陷入困境
法拉利在赞德福特冲刺赛中的出色表现令一级方程式对手提高警惕，但令人失望的排位赛成绩可能使其在正赛中无法发挥优势。
为什么迈凯伦认为法拉利在赞德沃特速度最快，但却很可能被困住
勒克莱尔在荷兰大奖赛冲刺赛中令人印象深刻的软胎节奏，让对手们陷入了深思
法拉利在赞德沃特令人印象深刻的冲刺赛表现让其一级方程式对手们高度警惕，但令人失望的排位赛成绩可能会让车队无法在大奖赛中发挥自己的优势。
法拉利在周六的冲刺赛中看起来很强势，尤其是勒克莱尔，他对自己赛车调校的方向比队友汉密尔顿满意得多。
作为唯一一位没有使用更耐久的中性胎、而是用软胎完成比赛的前列车手，勒克莱尔耐心等待时机，最终找到机会超越诺里斯，拿下第二名，仅次于冠军拉塞尔。
迈凯伦负责人安德烈亚·斯特拉表示，车队认为勒克莱尔的轮胎选择“相当激进”，但法拉利显然有充分的理由相信这一选择会带来回报。事实也确实如此——当诺里斯苦于后胎性能衰退时，勒克莱尔完成超越。
法拉利这次耐人寻味的软胎策略，无疑值得对手在正赛全程开始前好好琢磨；但根据斯特拉的说法，这也可能与SF-26在正赛节奏下的速度比排位赛更强的表现有关。
斯特拉指出：“我认为，法拉利在第一次自由练习中连续做出的单圈速度是最好的。而且在正赛中，勒克莱尔的节奏很可能也依然是最快的。不过，我不确定这是与软胎有关，还是仅仅因为他们在比赛节奏方面就是最快的车。”
"所以，我认为所有车队都会看看勒克莱尔的正赛长距离表现，然后会去思考：'这是因为他们的车，还是因为我们需要在策略上考虑一些东西？'"
安德烈亚·斯特拉表示，法拉利在正赛节奏方面是"最快的"
法拉利通常会更高兴自己的正赛速度比单圈速度快，但考虑到在赞德沃特这条狭窄多弯的赛道上超车非常困难，这一点在本周末就不那么适用了。
"我们正在尽力让赛车尽可能快，但就我们赛车本身的特性而言，它在正赛中的表现比排位赛中要好一些，"勒克莱尔说道，他在排位赛中获得第六名，落后杆位0.395秒，落后队友刘易斯·汉密尔顿0.064秒。"我更愿意是这样，而不是反过来，但在这样的赛道上，这帮不了什么忙。
不过，尽管荷兰大奖赛预计将是一场相当简单的一停比赛，法拉利能否真正利用其正赛节奏优势，还是会干脆被困在车流之中，仍有待观察。它的主要选择似乎是用软胎起步——与直接竞争对手不同，两位车手都各自保存了一套全新的软胎——以便在发车时抢占地盘，然后提前进站，引诱对手在更受偏好的硬胎上进行漫长的第二节（阶段）行程，或者借此获得赛道位置。
车队领队弗雷德·瓦塞尔在排位赛后无疑暗示了这种情景。"我们为明天保存了一套全新的软胎，而且我们是前三排中唯一这样做的车队，"他在与天空体育（天空体育）的交谈中提到了法拉利的策略灵活性。"这是积极的，让我们看看我们能做些什么。今天上午的正赛节奏很好。这意味着我们可以放手一搏，争取明天做得更好。你们看到了，我们是能够完成超车的……"

Why McLaren thinks Ferrari is quickest in Zandvoort, but may well be stuck
Charles Leclerc's impressive soft-tyre pace in the Dutch Grand Prix sprint race has given its rivals food for thought
Ferrari's impressive sprint race at Zandvoort has put its Formula 1 rivals on high alert, but a disappointing qualifying performance may leave the Scuderia unable to use its advantage in the grand prix.
Ferrari looked strong in Saturday's sprint, especially in the hands of Charles Leclerc who was much happier with his set-up direction than team-mate Lewis Hamilton.
As the only frontrunner to complete the race on soft tyres instead of more durable medium rubber, Leclerc bided his time until he found a way past Norris for second place behind winner George Russell.
McLaren chief Andrea Stella said his team found Leclerc's tyre choice "quite ambitious", but the team would have obviously had good reasons to believe it would pay off. And it did, as Leclerc picked off Norris when the latter was struggling with rear tyre degradation.
Ferrari's intriguing soft-tyre run is certainly food for thought for its rivals ahead of the full-distance grand prix, but according to Stella it could also have been a factor of how quick the SF-26 is in race trim compared to its less robust qualifying performance.
"I think the lap times of Ferrari in continuous laps that they showed during practice one, they were the best," Stella observed. "And probably in the race, Leclerc was still the best in terms of pace. Now, I'm not sure whether this is associated with the soft tyres or simply because they have the fastest car when it comes to race pace.
"So, I think all teams will take a look at Leclerc's run and will try to think: 'Was it because of their car or is it because we need to consider something for the strategy?'"
Andrea Stella says Ferrari is "the best in terms of pace" in the race
Ferrari would generally be pretty pleased to be faster in race trim than over a single lap, but given how difficult overtaking is on the tight and twisty Zandvoort loop, that doesn't apply as much to this weekend.
"We're trying to make the car as fast as possible, but for the characteristics we have it works a little bit better in the race than in qualifying," Leclerc said as he qualified sixth, 0.395s off pole and 0.064s behind team-mate Lewis Hamilton. "I prefer that way than the other way, but on a track like this, it doesn't help.
With the Dutch Grand Prix expected to be a fairly straightforward one-stop race, though, it remains to be seen if Ferrari can actually leverage that race pace advantage or if it will be simply stuck in traffic. Its main option appears a start on soft, of which both drivers have saved a brand-new set unlike their direct rivals, to make up ground at the start and then pit early to lure its rivals into a long second stint on the preferred hard tyres, or gain track position.
Team principal Fred Vasseur certainly alluded to that scenario after qualifying. "We save one set of new [soft] tyres for tomorrow and we are the only one on the first three rows," he mentioned Ferrari's strategic flexibility in conversation with Sky. "This is positive and let's see what we can do. The race pace was good this morning. It means that we can push and try to do better tomorrow. You see that we were able to overtake..."
