    Forza

    Let's hope for a Ferrari 1-2.
    It's not how start but how you finish.

    Ricciardo will run a new Renault engine (spec3) today at Paul Ricard providing a small power gain. Hulkenberg will get the new spec at Spielberg. Renault wanted to avoid the grid penalty for Hulk at their home race

    I do have a feeling that we had made progress, but how much, is it enough, we`ll see.

    The new Spec 3 Honda power unit sees the repositioning of the wastegate pipes. Could be useful for blowing the rear wing

    Mclaren running their BAT sponsor VYPE logo on the front wing end plates.

    While Ferrari took off the MISSION WINNOW logo.

    Vettel takes the new front wing off and slap the old one on - Ferrari still don't look entirely convinced by the new geometry

    Leclerc was fastest in S1 (23.2), a few tenths away from Bottas in S2 (28.7), and a less than a tenth slower than Bottas in S3 (41.1).

    Hamilton on the other hand was slower than Lec in S1 (23.4), a few tenths faster in S2 (28.5), and pretty much untouchable in S3 (40.6, nearly 0.4sec faster than Bottas).

    Vettel currently on no-mans land, something is definitely wrong with his car. He was using the old floor in FP1, Leclerc was on the new one.

    Vettel with new FW, struggling with tyres & front end grip.
    Lec with old FW, struggling with tyre graining issues.

    May the track temp, new surface & combined with tyres.
