This is something I feel is represented strongly in this forum - we can all be happy of the progress the team made this season. I can't remember the last time Ferrari had a mid-season dip in performance and actually came back stronger after...

No matter what happens this weekend, I hope the team is proud of themselves for the amazing work they did

We all know that when you execute like this, it may only be a matter of time, and he does as well.

Why did Sainz have such a bad race here last year? Was there a car problem?

Just not on it. He qualified poorly as well with 0 indications of any issues

Maybe just burnt out ... he mentioned something along the lines in the latest Beyond The Grid podcast, had to change his training, etc. to not let it happen again this year

Vanja's excellent posts on X are inadvertently aiding the competition.

Mate, teams have people with state of the art cameras all across the track to take photos of every car from every angle. They shoot burst photos to get an exact sequence to reconstruct into 3D models with specialised software. When they had bigger CFD limits than today, they ran hybrid models or full models of other cars. Just because they have WT and CFD limits today, doesn't mean they can't get their cloud computing partners to do it for them, McLaren copying Red Bull floor to the finest of details is the biggest tell...

It was an attempt at a joke

Very much appreciate your takes on all things F1

Battery issues on the last weekend when you are in title fight and you aim to be perfect is an indication team is not ready for championship yet. And yes, I hope this ages like milk.

I'm assuming the part that broke on Leclerc's car is an old one, but it's still frustrating to encounter these issues.

FP2 will be a more representative session in terms of track condition, so hopefully that ones goes smoother.

New energy store for Leclerc, 10 place grid drop confirmed.

Constructors final battle over before it began.

[Vanja #66]

Too early for the final twist, but there was never a WCC fight after Baku race and both events that happened there

Should've taken an engine in Brazil.

Should've taken an engine in Brazil.

At whose cost?
If the PU is not broken then the replacement would be on a budget, for example couldn't test the floor of the 2025 then

[f1isgood]

A well timed Safety Car would be nice.

it is odd that leclerc has been quite lucky this year.. very Unusal...
Soo I predict he will be on course to win but his engine will go PUFFF this weekend..

why u gotta be like that

Oof sorry.. seems only part of this came true.. lol

This is the battery. Do teams really take a lot of extra batteries?

This just seems like bad luck.
