Formula 1 teams have been asked to supply information about the use of lubricants in their engines, the latest move to ensure oil is not being burned for performance gains.

Last time it rained in Brazil he wasn't much of a threat to the leader of the race though.
Yeah, He started 4th, finished 3rd, and the guy who started 3rd crashed out, and that goes down as one of Max's best races :lol:

A reminder for the both of you.

I noticed this doesn't show his spin on the straight early in the race, he so closed to a DNF

One thing I just remembered is why haven't they shown any Driver Briefings any more. The few they showed were great, and wonder why they stopped showing them.

Because the drivers didn’t want that to be shown anymore.

Ferrari got is PU to the range of 0,9l (or 0,6l dont remember) per GP in Monza 2017.. while Mercedes burned oil for 1,2L per Gp (or 0,9l) till the end of that year.

Please! Just stop with the "My driver is best, your driver sucks!" stuff.

If you care, then you've already made up your mind (as has the other person) and discussion is pointless.
If you don't care, then you don't want to read it.

It's pointless for you and annoying for every other person who reads the thread.

it has become "a Game" between the Media and Ferrari
the Media wants to know which PU they are using so they can point the finger to Ferrari, if they fail to have that top speed again.
Ferrari doesn't wanna let everybody know what PU they use so the could say at the end "this PU was an older spec, and that is why it was lacking speed"

Cat & Mouse ....

F1 is become to political as is football (soccer for others) is becoming to commercial, i wish the old days back where a sportsmen/woman was a sportsmen/woman and not some political-commercial playball

How should that work? I very much doubt that Ferrari could be speculating on telling such an excuse. There still is Vettel's spec 3 PU and in addition to that Ferrari at no point have told that they might use an older spec PU for Leclerc. They were always going to use a new one obviously and new means spec 3, despite all the rumors about a 2020 prototype.

Remember the video that Chandhok made at a GP early in the season. He went to visit the Shell on track oil lab and the laboratory technician was actually showing him the different types of lubricants that Ferrari uses. Binotto casually walked by and was stunned at was going on. Now we know why, there was something to hide.
