The obvious difference between Ferrari and McLaren is how they wear the tyres, with Ferrari being more gentle. On the harder durable tyre where wear is less significant the McLaren is the faster car. I still believe Redbull have the best overall package. They may be losing a lot on the straights but both their drivers are not mitigating this issue well at all, especially in heavy braking zones into slow corners. This is where they should make their advantage count so not to be vulnerable on the ensuing straight. Vettel in particular is average to poor in this regard and he has missed his braking point on several occasions when not in the lead and the car in front of him is interferring with his driving and view.
