[Valeo]

Very competitive against the Ferrari in S3 with the long radius corners.
Nice surprise.

[Valeo]

Lots of understeer in S2 especially in the chicane, on both tyres

[folkcat67]

does the car have the normal wing for this weekend or the 'macarena' one?

[AR3-GP]

4th team. Ferrari was always going to be quicker. Mercedes has always been faster. Mclaren made a step with upgrades and were already quicker in Spa.

Macarena one I believe

Red Bull's technical director has already identified the priority development areas to enable the RB22 to quickly become a machine capable of winning regularly. “We lack stability on corner entry and in the middle of corners, which we are trying to correct mechanically. Initially, the car lacked overall aerodynamic downforce and suffered from mechanical problems that affected the driver's feel at the wheel. These issues have since been addressed.”

Pretty sure there is only one guy in the team that identifies the areas where the biggest gains can be made and that is the one holding the steering wheel.

Well, if Waché is holding the wheel at the moment...

[Valencia2012]

This car is dreadfull, no pace whatsoever.. just the 4th team in no mans land.

As expected.

[euv2]

The car was always going to be 4th fastest here but this weekend they failed to setup the car once again with 3 practice sessions, they always seem to be juggling setups, Spa was an anomaly this season.

The car's cornering performance is not that bad, it's competitive with the fastest cars on a lot of corners, but by sector 3 they kill their tires, something no other car seems to do.

[pantherxxx]

This team is dogs*hit without Horner. I hope Verstappen leaves them and finds a proper car.

[Valeo]

Wth?
