Both Haas in the top 10, another good sign from our PU

[thinks to himself, calm down, don't get too excited, early days..... na, bugger it, get excited!!!!]

So putting together Seb's best sectors, he has a 1:23.352, but his sector 3 best time was a couple of laps later than his fastest lap, so I think he has at least a little more in reserve.
Trying to...

Seb actually threw in a faster S3 on one of his follow-up laps to his 1:23.380, so there is at least some more speed to come from him. 1:21.something to get pole??

Seb
Kimi
Dan

Lots of teeth gnashing and denial from the usual media suspects
Merc begins their F1 exit strategy :-)

I think Hamilton's fastest lap, on softs, was on a much shorter stint - felt like about 6 to me.... ditto for Felipe's fastest lap also on softs and even shorter than Hamilton's.

Actually, there is a very large potential upside irrespective of the flow restriction. Currently thermal efficiency in F1 is still estimated at under 50%. If I understand the area of development...

Chris Sylt, the guy who wrote the article, hates Ferrari, so rest assured this is his "wish mountain" made out of some small fact molehill.

Ferrari cars raced in blue and white livery in '64 :-)

It must have been a pretty big intestine to manage that :-)

BBC journalism - the quintessential oxymoron

Even though you always have great insights and knowledge, it can't be a certainty yet. So, I'm hoping Merc actually have to stop and change tires before lap 10. I also hope the last couple of laps...

Exactly.... LH will just fly away...[/QUOTE]
Fly away on dead and dying US tire with a full fuel load on board? Time will tell, but I really hope the blistering and really limited number of laps the...

Speaking for myself....
Optimistic - guilty as charged :-)
Crazy - no doubt about it :-D

The substance that gives rise to my shared crazy optimism...
Starting on US tires that have 3 laps in...

If true this is not good especially at Silverstone and Spa.

AFAIC this is awesome good news :-D



Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo says he knows he is on Ferrari's list of potential replacements for Kimi Raikkonen if the team decides not to renew the Finn's...

I really hope this is just coming our wrong and you don't mean this.
The thought that talent, skill, leadership or any other human trait is bound or constrained by nationality is dangerous and wrong.

What a great comeback from Ferrari. I'm super happy with the way the team has responded to the last couple of races and how well they bounced back.

I'm also really happy with what we saw from the...

Actually, there's a simple solution for Seb with this .... put a couple of Mercs between him and Dan at the start :-D

Perhaps one of the challenges we are facing with the tires and getting the setup right is our lack of working experience and base-line data with our new front suspension geometry (our change from...

Of course we have chances. Not much has gone our way so far, we have a few things to fix, but we have a great car and great driver. A lot will fall into place if we can master our tires for q

I do agree that at starts and restarts (after SC and VSC) we do lose ground, today even to FI, but that is only because our tires are not up to temp - that makes a huge difference. After a few laps...

I thought we looked very good on the S tire. Lots of purples from Seb. For me, our clear problem is getting our tires up to race temp. It hurts us in Q and you can see us suffering for few laps...

Really exciting race.
Really feel for Dan.
Really great to see our speed.
Really hope we put a contract in front of Dan as soon after this race as possible :-D
