    I was wrong about almost everything this weekend except for the tyres in general being too hard. Time to go and stand in the corner in shame.

    Its just heart-breaking to let another season go bcz of the drivers' and pit wall crew's incapability.
    Thanks for breaking my heart again guys, though it wont stop me from hoping for next year.
    Maybe I will even have a tattoo on my arm with the prancing horse and a text: NEXT YEAR.
    Kudos to Mercedes and Lewis, they proved yet again why they are the team to beat and we proved yet again why we are not worthy of being crowned champions. Leclerc seems to be the only hope left.

    1 wont do it. 2 would be the minimum, and we would need 7 solid races of coming in 1st.

    I really don't like the guy, but he can drive and he doesn't make silly mistakes.

    This will probably be his most deserved title if he wins it, he has driven very well all season and tool full advantage of any mistakes we make.

    Rather dull race - I even went to do some work in the middle of it. Off to the next race.

    Must give it to Mercedes ie. they do not seem to give up but make corrections and bounce back.

    Spec3 is not a massive step from ferrari like spec2. Lost some advantage.
    With driver mistakes + pit wall mistakes shows team is not ready for championships.

    2019, ferrari technical chief need to pull out something spectacular innovation to get the title.

    Very true ..he has been the difference .. look at the difference between him and Bot , it's not the team it's the driver who is making the difference there ..

    Today Merc were just outright faster than us.
    I hope it's just this track and we've not lost the development race, but I guess we'll see.

    That said, I think we could have taken P2 with a different strategy. Vettel lost the spot to Max due to being stuck behind FI, and then the US was wrong tires too.
    Maybe a little later stop, with SS tires could have saved our P2, but this is all in hindsight of course.

    sad to say it, you're right.....good head on his shoulders (unlike the hot headed #5 driver), as well as Merc working really hard to make it happen.....us for Ferrari....well, we seem to fall apart in the second part of the year.....YEAR OVER YEAR
    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.

    4 wins in the last 5 races for Lewis and going from 8 points clear to 40 points behind that race well and truly put the final nail in Seb's championship hopes

    Car was pretty good in S1, good in S3 but terrible in S2. I don't know what happened to our pace tbh. Until FP3, SF71-H was the fastest car here.

    We got beat yet again. Well done to our rivals. Second tier car, second tier drivers, second tier team. We should be content finishing second in the championship however I’m not. Awful race.

    Disagree...partially. It's Hamilton and THE TEAM.
    It's not how start but how you finish.

    Won't happen next year either. Mercedes won't forget how to win and Ferrari has been unable to figure it out for over a decade. Maybe 2021. Maybe.

    Singapore, hungary, Monaco were our tracks...!! We lost all our wins this year on these tracks.
    I’m disappointed with this stuff, atleast last year those spark plug issue & other small issues would make sense that we lost title.

    But this year, it gives more pain with fastest car we are unable to deliver final punch.

    Singapore is circuit for these cars. He lost at least half a minute, because he couldn't get close enough to pass Hulkenberg with blue flags.

    Force India with fresh tires were probably 4 to 5 seconds faster than Williams with old tires. Yet Perez couldn't pass Sirotkin. It was very entertaining though.
