StyrianGP 2020 Practices and Qualifying

[gvera]

Ferrari sf1000 is one of the worst car in Ferrari history f1. They need new peoples this is just insane. They are totally lost.

I guess you weren't around in 1980 when Gilles ended 14th, Jody 19th and Ferrari 9th in the championship (beating only Alfa Romeo).
That was a bad year...

FP2 sectors (top 6 and Ferrari)

Verstappen 1:03.660 (16.154--28.144--19.309)

Leclerc 1:04.706 (16.428--28.678--19.600)

Vettel deleted lap time 1:04.772 (16.379--28.765--19.628)

Actually...pace with heavy fuel load isn't bad. The long run pace looks quite good compared to last week.
But the engine is lacking pick power, which is going to be quite painful during qualifying, no so much during race day.

So we have decent performance on heavy fuel load on medium and as Leclerc showed last week decent performance on light fuel load in race trim.

is Ham getting old?

He has tended to start seasons a bit slow so I suspect he will be back.

[WS6TransAm01]

Sf1000 = scuderia failure Ferrari updates have failed scrap the car and withdraw from the season a total embarrassment to all that is good about Ferrari.Show binotto the exit door he is not the leader Ferrari need.

I prefer Suck-Fest Ferrari

Yea, but he is the leader Ferrari deserves.

[WS6TransAm01]

Too much time pandering and keeling to concentrate on racing.

But it's not the 80's. Back in those days, any private team with good financial backing could win the champinoship. But that's no longer the case today.
Money dominates current F1, and Ferrari is one of the richest, if not the richest team in F1. There's no excuse for battling with Mclaren or Tracing point, teams with half the budget, resources and workforce compared to Ferrari.

yep, sure feels that way.....Ferrari was in a 20 YEAR drought....until year 2000.

This could be the starting grid as it stands. Rain might disqualify FP3 and qualifying tomorrow.

credit goes to ferrari for developing such a car & launching it with a grand event.

Looks like the SF 1000 has caught the covid virus because it looks pretty sick to me, must be placed in isolation immediately.

Nah, Q can be delayed untill sunday morning, weather forecast is ok. FP3 can be cancelled.

[Ferrarichamp]

I think Max might win this one. Not sure Bottas can win back to back, and Ham is a bit slow.

At least marketing department is good

I hope not.

[KimiBot]

Well atleast the race sim is looking a bit competitive, matching Mclaren and Stoll

something almost positive, thanks

Okay... now THAT is funny!

[tifosi1993]

I'm still going to wait until Q2, before writing off the new upgrades completely. I refuse to believe that, the new package made the car 1 second slower on qualy sim but 6-7 tenths (even more)/lap faster on race sim.

Of course we are not going lock out the front row, but we are not going to be P9 and P16 either.

[Tony]

Is Rory Byrne still working with Ferrari in any way?

Any race sim comparison data you have ? 6-7 tenths/lap is a huge leap in race sim.

[FerrariF60]

Can Ferrari go back to Maranello and just get another car out of the museum!!!!

Or at least dust off the sf90 and run that this year...prolly 1000 better then this donkey

[Kyss4k]

Is Rory Byrne still working with Ferrari in any way?

He still probably does, but sadly even if he would be full time in the Scuderia, it would not change how down on power is our egngine.

[FerrariF60]

I cant believe that we end up calling competitive performance to match Mclaren and Stroll !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yup f Ing embarrassing....last year we were fighting for wins, this year we fight for top of midfield....I think Binotto gonna get sacked...

[chinmay]

Vettel says the car feels lot better and he hopes it stays this way. He says he can't even compare it to last week because the difference is huge.

From Friday car last week ,or the race car where he had numerous problems ????

Wow, haven’t watched FP2..but that looks painful....hues it’s fair to say that even the Honda engine is better than our DONKEY this season.....total embarrassment from.....Enzo is prolly rolling in his grave seeing how bad an engine Ferrari have built....especially going by his saying “aerodynamics are for people who can’t built engines”.....well it seems that NOT only we can’t build a solid engine, but we can’t even have a decent aero either.....lol

[tifosi1993]

Leclerc (today, mediums)

1m09.456
1m09.585
1m09.407
1m09.520
1m09.511
1m09.792
1m09.557
1m09.547

Leclerc (1st Austrian GP, softs)

1m09.925
1m10.271
1m10.310
1m10.287
1m10.596
1m10.611
1m10.511
1m10.460
etc

Of course, we don't know the actual fuel load of today's race sim, and I'm not including race sim from July 3 practice, since the track was more than 22C cooler, so entirely different condition. But still, it looks promising. And according to Vettel, the current car feels completely different than what they had a weeks ago, so another positive sign.

Also Leclerc: “I think we found a few things on high fuel towards the end of the day, the last run especially, so this is positive, let’s see whether tomorrow, or after tomorrow depending on the weather, if we are able to gain the lap time we gained on high fuel also on low fuel.”

So clearly happy with his long run pace.
