when Nikki asked Bear here if he liked her, and he said yes, would anything have gone differently? what would her response be?? this was before she became obsessed with him.

Lando conceded that while the car was more competitive, it didn’t feel better in Barcelona than it did in Monaco, acknowledging that track characteristics had made the difference: "Not really, still quite a handful in a lot of places, very unpredictable in places. I think we can just be more committed with things. Monaco, so many corners, we just couldn't commit to corners. We were afraid of the rear, then the front, and it's also just a different characteristic. “Here, the minimum is third gear, probably still like 100 and something kph, and everything else is fourth, fifth, sixth gears, corners. Monaco is all second, first, third, so we're in a completely different regime. “It's just the car didn't perform in slow-speed corners, and still doesn't. It's not like we've improved anything from that side. It's just the width of the track and how long and flowing these corners suit us much better.”
