You know it and I know it! The fights for up front make the races great esp. if Charles is up there. But.. if someone can slow Lewis down win wise, as the saying goes, " Any port in a storm!"

My philosophy is if FERRARI doesn't win I would like to see different winner every race.
I think only hope we have this year and possibly next year are odd podiums here and there.

Ferrari has a significant problem with human resources. In fact, they have been too osted in the Italian market at one point and have been abandoned in the past by Aldo costa, sassi .... They were also rejected by former Mercedes chief executive Andy Cowell for his position as chief of motoring for 2021. Ferrari has a big problem for the future.

The only cure is to winn a few races!

It's so much better to have a good team and a bad car, because there's always hope the team will turn things around, but when the problem is with the team itself, it's a long road ahead. I just hope Ferrari are taking steps to strengthen their resources so we can be a formidable team again and produce championship winning cars.

For our sake, I should be way off. At this point however, I no longer wish to be disappointed by elevating my expectations so might as well have a little fun.

The Power Unit gate weighs 70% of the Ferrari gap

I think we all knew that! Even last year our car wasn't as planted in the corners as the mercs but our straight line speed more than made up for that!

**paolo lalli** · 20th August 2020, 01:40

Still down some 30% so calculate 30% of 7 tenths of a second and may be that will represent the new gap to Mercedes red bull should close right up.Racing pt who knows Mercedes might slow them down further would be embarking for mercedes to be beaten by the copy.

Just a head spin, could it be that they didn't develop any power advantage or what so ever, but Ferrari is involved in the current party mode ban and the latest ERS controversy? As part of the engine deal with the FIA Ferrari is now doing exactly the same to Mercedes like they provided the FIA info in '19. All ERS systems are beeing checked starting tomorrow, could it be the "something special" regards to downgrading the power of the competition?

Farfetched but it still is Ferrari.

**paolo lalli** · 20th August 2020, 20:34

Do not discount anything.The fia do not want to held responsible for the death of f1.The sooner this engine saga is ended the sooner life will restart in f1.Ferrari pay back.

**Silent Bob** · 20th August 2020, 22:07

We've criticized Ferrari signing the agreement to freeze all engine and car development for the next 2 years. But with recent FIA statements about checking all PUs this might be a Ferrari masterstroke. If Mercs and Honda ERS systems are found to be outside the regs., then Ferrari might come out with the best PU if all others are paired back and have to be locked in.

Maybe, but by time everyone is checked, possibly found guilty, appeal process etc...Hamilton will have ran away and already won #7.

Maybe it will help us close the gap next season.

Let's hope so, but it's been some time since Ferrari has had a leg up on Mercedes or Red Bull strategically...

Let' s wait. Nothing to loose!

**Stingray** · 24th August 2020, 18:48

Can we expect anything new or any upgrades on the SF1000 this weekend? I saw somewhere Binotto said they planned something "special"?!

Nothing yet (Monday).

Weather currently is unpredictable. It's constantly changing. Best way to know the weather is on Friday and into the weekend.

"Something Special" is most likely related to the livery. I can see a special livery to mark Ferrari's 1000 race in F1. Don't get your hopes up for anything performance related.

You mean we won’t be seeing the SF1000-B?

Well I think our 1000th gp will be at Monza so it might be something else then a different livery at Spa ,BUT again I don't expect anything "special ".
There are SO many times that we heard something new to come, even from official team members mouth, and then we try to find this "new" staff with a magnified glass !!!!!
So yeah I dont expect anything!!!
