Absolutely. But the point is I suppose that in having 'extra' knowledge about how Ferrari works its strategy in relation to the car settings 'may' have provided McLaren with opportunities to exploit weaknesses in Ferrari's plans at moments they wouldn't have otherwise known about. Remember, winning in the modern F1 era is as much about picking your moment and/or your strategy to best exploit your opponents weaknesses as it is about having the out and out fastest car.
