    thats it mate...only one i'm afraid...
    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.

    We're not cursed, it's just Mercedes, they have all the luck and with extra help from the FIA too.
    ie running illegal tyre tests, being allowed to burn more oil than anyone else etc etc
    They are the FIA's favourite right now and nothing can stop them.

    Don't be sad guys, even if Seb would have passed Hamilton after the pit stops, Hamilton would just have easily overtaken us again on the straight :))) The story of this year.

    And I guess Seb's setup is not polished, as Kimi is quite faster at times. This friday not running cost him a lot. That and our underwhelming engine.

    Seriously, Seb lost 6 tenths in S1 on Bottas. What's going on? Lack of running in FP2, bad setup?
