    I like to refresh peeps memory The Mac Cheaters were in a even worse state at this time last year and they ended up okay!!! Until OZ it's all speculations, PR blabla, journos making headlines and rumour makers like this Jose Luis dude who seems to know everything about our top secret stuff, yeah right!!!!

    BBC F1 technical analyst Gary Anderson

    "I've been watching the cars out on the track this morning, down at the chicane at Turns seven and eight. The Ferrari looks particularly difficult to drive - Fernando Alonso has caught a couple of lurid slides when he lost rear-end grip. He's trying to drive the car he wants to have rather than the car he has. Felipe Massa was also struggling yesterday, but the way he drives the car looks nervous. Alonso just makes it slide. The Red Bull looks neat and tidy, although it does build up a bit of understeer. The Ferrari looks like it has very 'peaky' grip whereas the Red Bull looks more comfortable to drive. I suspect if the drivers were to really have a go, the pace of the two cars would be close, but you'd be less likely to make a mistake in the Red Bull. Lewis Hamilton has not done many laps - and when he has been out the McLaren has looked heavy with fuel."

    Good, very good & promising!!

    No that wing is NOT the new wing.

    Edit: Old wing= yellow circle. new wing=black circle. There is no opening in the new wing on the endplate

    13:11 Or it might mean that testing is totally deceptive and times mean nothing.


    It seems that maybe finally autosport writes a little sense...

    So 2023 started off bad, but managed to claw back some lap time come end of the year. Lets hope SF24 will give us tifosi something to smile about.

    But I hope Ferrari will be able to overcome it, with new parts or different setup.

    As long as the car is fast, let our drivers use their skills to keep it on track. We don't wanna make it too easy for them now, do we

    RB Source its in German though...

    http://www.auto-motor-und-sport.de/f...f-4466202.html

    they should introduce tomorrow new supa-dupa-Newey-exhaust and chassis is modified for that new exhaust so that they can save time (its logic just look how much time did we loose with various setups on exhaust positions on the same chassis)
