    Apparently Hamilton and Bottas have been doing a complete race simulation + some, hamilton supposedly just made his first pit stop, no wonder he has been running since session started but his times have been very good and consistent and he continues on

    Ferrari very slippery following the mcleran in s3 in lots of corners, unable to pass yet

    Vettel is still losing front end grip following the McLaren closely.
    So much for the new aero regulation

    Oh no, we’re doomed....we cannot even pass a McLaren......please
    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.

    Or maybe it’s our front wing interpretation that’s giving us problems following another car....maybe mercs or red bulls is better....NO?

    it seems he doesn’t intend to pass the McL.. maybe trying to see how the tire degrades from the wake of another car?

    I didn't see footage, but perhaps he tried to follow the car to see how it feels but didn't really want to overtake ?

    That’s what I’m thinking too.....to see how it effects the car following another compared to last year

    def possible, i think he did that with Kvyat. but he tried running drs this time while mcl didnt both times, could be just heavier or the new regs didnt help squat

    constant 1:23s for ham on his full race sim , tyres seem to last quite long on their car, but i think they are on harder tyres so they should last longer

    So under the slow motion footage I STILL see a bit of vapor smoking on the Ferrari.....and seen it on the Alfa also....but not as pronounced as last year

    sorry was away. I saw him struggling towards the final 5 corners but if you say his S3 is best then he must be really pushing hard. Just a few seconds ago I saw Lewis blocking the wheels and flat spotting them heavily.

    they said ham and bottas are doing/did a complete race sim today so i think he's pushing as he would race day, ham already made his first pitstop wonder if he'l stop again using the c2's

    I was just reading an article were they mention that RedBull are unable to run their Honda PU at full power due to a vibration issue. This seems to have manifested in the past as well for Toro Rosso & McLaren.

    Maybe Claire Williams might be interested in Honda PU's eventually?

    If only Haas was running properly , we could have got a lot more milage on Ferrari engines. We are still okay I guess.

    they had some ignition issue or something, glad kimi and seb are picking up weight that haas keeps leaving with their issues

    Haas have given us an update on what caused Romain Grosjean's red flag earlier this afternoon - and Pietro Fittipaldi's this morning.

    It was... the ignition coil. Good news is that the team have fixed it and Grosjean has just left the pits to try and add to his paltry tally of 9 laps for the day so far...

    I knew it! Mercs have the blown front wheels too! I figured there was something behind the black paint other than heat dissipation materials etc.
