This year especially, the onboard sound like small size vaccum cleaners.

Whatever they do, they know this track in and out. The issue is that the tires are still too hard. Last year no one used the C1, it is simply too hard. So they will anyways manage a two stop on the C2 and C3 tire...Merc may play save and go for a C2 starting tire and maybe use the C1, but this is only possible with their pace advantage.
If Pirelli is to be believed about the exceptional amounts of downforce this year, everyone might go the C2/C1 route.

Its warmer than in May, that costs air density and downforce.

Everyone have hopes that it will be hot condition race and Mercedes will suffer. No way. They are so smart and sneaky. They invented such thing like DAS. They will deal with tyres with no problem FOR SURE.

You’re trying too hard to make Sieper’s post look ridiculous
Not saying it was the case, but being that sarcastic as if it was an impossible thing, is like living in a sweet world made of sugar and thinking everything is 100% correct.
thanks LM10, but I do accept the post by Laserguru, I did put my post up so then you also bear the consequences :D (which were also in gest I think). Probably just my head not working right! Let's see if Sergio has recovered.
I always enjoy and encourage creativity thinking. Let’s see if Sergio or Lance can put their car on p3 this Saturday.

sounds like Katy Perry California Girls. Nothing like F1 :lol: .

Glad to hear I am not the only one who hates the way they improved the engine audio broadcast. It is no longer the engine sound we complain about, so this by itself can be considered an improvement.

I read Roy Nissany is getting a run in Russell's car on Friday. Not a big fan of his and hope he does not destroy the car just as George is finding his feet.
Still, money is essential to the team.

Last year the C1 was to hard, but with way more track temperatur it could work very well.

But he needs a car to qualify the following day and Williams does not have a huge stock

I see my comments about Ferrari being a midfield team and Vettel spinning are gone im guessing a Ferrari Mod read them. You guys dont come from countries where free speech & differences of opinion is a thing do you?
