2019 Mexican GP Build Up, Practice & Qualifying thread

Please Ferrari make a rear-stable car for 2020 season and also high-efficient one. In this case we at least might have a chance, and a proper shot. We also need both drivers at the top of the game.

2017,2018, 2019 are strong cars delivered by Ferrari.
I say strong cars but not reliable. If 2019 1st half results would have been good, then Lec had a direct shot at WDC.

Issue on Vettel's car.

**wappad** · 26th October 2019, 15:26

And again Dutch tv- commentator Olav Mol talking about a rumor that now 2 teams carefully make plans for an official 'protest' against the 'too fast' Ferraris

.

Ferraris sudden speed hurts the 'Orange Army'

.

Forza Scuderia!! Good luck Seb and Charles for this weekend

I cannot understand this why everyone is crying about Ferrari engine-speed.

Either Ferrari is holding something in the bag for Q, but this does not look like front row lock out

And when does it look front row lock out, according to you anyway? when they are P4-P5 instead of P1 and P2?

And of course we are holding on to our 'party mode'. This is after-all FP3, not Q3.

**doublesixes** · 26th October 2019, 16:06

P3 1-2 It looks somewhat promising but the advantage is just a bit over a tenth.

**tifosi1993** · 26th October 2019, 16:09

FP3 best sectors (Ferrari, Mercedes, Red Bull)

Sector 1:
Vettel 26.880
Leclerc 26.933
Verstappen 27.039
Bottas 27.146
Hamilton 27.247
Albon 27.433

Sector 2:
Bottas 29.156
Hamilton 29.213
Vettel 29.327
Leclerc 29.398
Albon 29.502
Verstappen 29.666

Sector 3:
Albon 19.804
Leclerc 19.814
Hamilton 19.828
Bottas 19.957
Vettel 19.965
Verstappen 20.058

OK. I hope we are going to show full force in Q

Well it's a short track. I think the pole will be around mid/high 1m14's to low 1m15's. So a gap of tenth or two is quite big here.

Not just Charles but even Seb could have been in the mix for the WDC with a better start to the season, it allowed HAM and BOT to do the damage early on.

P1-2 in FP3 is promising, for sure, hope the weather doesn't interfere but quali not far away now.

I hope that you are correct, fratello!

Button says Vettel was sandbagging and had a lot more pace in his locker.

**Vettel165** · 26th October 2019, 16:52

Did Seb lifted in s3 before the main straight?

That happens when Seb is massively happy with the car.
