    Sector 3 of Hungary!!! Man... i remember that back in 2011-2012 we were losing 0.5sec to Red Bull in sector 3 and mostly at the last turn. it is 2019 still losing 0.5 sec to redbull.... just depressing.

    As I said P4 and P5. To much time loss in S2 and A3. Brace for one boring race tomorrow

    Redbull & Merc were favourites on these kind of high downforce circuits. What is sad is that we didn't win when we had the strongest car: Bahrain, Baku, Montreal, Austria and in Germany.

    Good job Charles, you have the pace and without any doubt you're faster than Vettel. But needs to calm down a bit, but it took Max 4.5 years to stop making mistakes so there's still time to learn.

    And speaking of Max, congrats. His first of many pole positions.

    So pole for Max. The question remains... will he lose it at the start ?

    Also, somewhat expected, Charles qualified better that Seb.

    And let's hope that Bottas will give some trouble to Lewis at the start.

    Congratulations to Max for his first pole. He will be fighting about WDC this year, it looks like so now.

    At least Hamilton didn’t get poll. So that’s something.

    I'm wondering if Ferrari put some wing on too, sacrificing some sector 1 speed to make the car drivable across the rest of the lap.

    For Merc it makes no sense on a track you can't overtake.

    Kinda fancy Robert Russell for Seb's seat. Impressive lap on that jalopy.

    Max will be outnumbered by 2 Mercs at the start. We might see some fireworks.

    i'm afraid it is possible......they have an AWESOME CHASSIS.....and now honda is delivering.....so game ON between Lewis and Max

    it's SAD that is NOT us.....
    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.

    Lets see the real picture of this year. Ok the car is bad in corners,mainly in slow corners,the evolution of the car is poor,there are no big upgrades during the season and the car is almost the same from the first day.
    But for me if we can see the situation race by race,we had the opportunity to win 5 races and we lost them all...sometimes there were reliability issues...some others it was the team decisions that destroyed us..some others Seb's mistakes that cost us a lot of points..however the big if is how different it would be for us if we had managed to win atleast in Bahrain,Austria,Canada,and Germany...
    Mercedes it is not unbeatable and there are a lot of points out there..it needs some luck, capabilities and right decisions
    Tomorrow i expect a tight race...Spa and Monza its going to be good for us.
    If Mercedes doesnt win any of next three races,then there is a hope for Max to be WDC...just a hope.

    I'm not upset with Charles mistakes tbh, let him make em this year so hopefully next year he won't make em again.

    Just look where crashstappen came from and where he is now.

    It's not that Charles is going to fight for the WDC this year.
    Hero's come and go, but legends never die!

    I think it will be an interesting run down to the first corner to-morrow. The RB is not the best starter and we are the fastest car in S1 but Ham & Bot are in the way!
    Massa moved from 3rd to the lead there in 2008 passing Ham and Kovalainen and would have won easily but the engine let him down!!!
    Maybe one of our boys can do what looks like the impossible to-morrow and pick their way through.


    Forza Jules

    Pick off Bottas, hope for a well placed safety car.

    Hope for temerature increase.

    I hope Max can give Hamilton a really hard time for the WDC. RB is becoming a real force, unfortunately, but if we can’t challenge at least I wish they can. I’m sick of the Mercedes dominance.

    it should be down to who manages their tyres better.
    starting P2 & P3, Merc probably still fancy their chances.
