    isn't that what we ALWAYS WISH for???? Ferrari 1-2
    let's hope at least a ONE for us.....because we all know kiki will be in sleep mode until the last 10 laps of the race.....sad but true; time for the old champ to step out and let LeClerc in.....

    Forza FERRARI
    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.

    With a good start fending off Max Seb should be able to attack Bottas and make a race of things today.

    Verstappen: "Mercedes will go. Then its a race with Ferrari on a different strategy. It depends on the track. Its a little bit of a gamble."

    If no rain then kimi should be able to make a move on Ricciardo. It seems he's running alot of wing and will be volrunable in straights plus kimi as US.

    Christian Horner just said that Toto is lobbying to get these spec tyres for all the races. If Formula Pirelli agrees the championship is over.

    Hoping for a great race and that Ferrari's gamble on the tyre strategy works. Vettel seems confident and relaxed.

    Agreed, I find the whole Merc-Pirelli thing a joke, it's been like that since the illegal tyre test they had with them in uhm. 2012 was it?

    Disgraceful that Pirelli are dictating the championship but yes I agree, if pirelli agree to use them at all the races, it's all over.

    Yes, very disgraceful. But we are not allowed to complain about it. Around these parts we need to all agree that Mercedes are just superior and Hamilton is the greatest driver to ever have been born....

    yeah it is a joke....and come to think that Pirelli is an italian tire manufacturer, ONE would think that they would help Ferrari more so then Merc.....unless Merc paid pirelli LOADS of money......who the $%^# knows

    One thing positive is that it does not benefit Liberty to have another runaway championship for Merc. That will turn off TVs and expose fewer people to advertising, which is the life-blood of virtually everything now. If Liberty wants to keep people interested in their sport they can't let any one team get preferential treatment.

    Instead of this .... Let all the drivers except ham bottas take both the trophies & handover it to Merc in the garage during a race weekend n then take a selfie.

    Brundle says the pitlane speed limit has been reduced further to 40km/h now
    mercedes were complaining after qualifying that its not slow and safe enough for them.

    anyone that pits more than once will be on the worse strategy
