Oh my.. The little Indian guy. Lawrence. He is a senior writer on f1.com for some time now. But now it seems in response to the diversity thing they have shipped the guy out to the races! Lol. Typical overreaction but I will take it!

We'll learn nothing in FP1, it's going to be wet. FP2 will give us our first glimpse, but we won't know what's what for another 32 hours.

FP 1 and 2 could prove uninformative in these strange times. I have a feeling that this is Max's race...but also think they will either struggle or sandbag in practice.

At least we have some wheels out on track, couldn't care less what they do learn or don't.
I just need my shot .. now!

I will miss FP1 though as I will crash to bed in a minute (23.30 now), FP2 is doable though.

I fear that Vettel will be in the role of Kimi. They will give him an unprofitable tire strategy, or they will keep him on the track without a pit stop for an extra 4-5 laps, until he starts to lose 2-3-4 seconds per lap.
That's kind of what i was thinking as well.
  • Most likely gets sent out for qualifying in whatever order helps Lec.
  • Always gets the less beneficial tasks for practice.
  • Always get the lesser of the two strategy options unless Lec is miles behind or has an accident or technical issue before the first stop.
And I say tension, because Ferrari will look bad, and have egg on their face if Vet clearly beats Lec. If that looks like it might happen, I expect random strategy and pistop mistakes to start happening.
There´s a first time for everything, Vettel has always been the favourite in any team he´s been. If now he´s not, that should mean something, no #1 loose that position easily

Lawrence has been attending races for quite a few years now. In the Paddock Pass interviews it's his voice you hear whenever it's not Will Buxton doing the interview.

But yeah.....go off

Yes, saying Vettel was included in the best line up in F1 is a clear outright lie. To be fair to Binnoto, he did not say "best line up possible". Furthermore, Binnoto may actually believe what he said on camera, but could have been forced by his superiors to get rid of Vettel. What is clear is that getting rid of Vettel is an upgrade for Ferrari.
Financially, perhaps. Otherwise, highly unlikely.
