The McLaren car balance is astonishing ,and that's also a big advantage in the rain.
they are running the highest downforce in Spa. they don't seem to like change much, just roll with one package and use it every single race. eg Red Bull ran a low downforce sprint race, Max was slower throughout, esp in the twisty bits but he made it work by getting ahead and then nobody can pass him. then they switch to more downforce in the feature race.
