2022 F1 news/rumours

**FerrariF60** · 28th December 2021, 01:18

just read this comment on another site....

Benz have the least ground effects experience on the grid, guess who has the most by far ... HAAS! Not joking, Dallara have been supplying ground effect Indycars since 2007, dominated F3 for decades, besides their other race cars, and have the oldest and largest rolling road wind tunnel of them all, as well as a 40% scale wind tunnel. And because they were last in the constructor's champ this year, they get 115% wind tunnel and CFD FIA allocated time, Benz gets 70% ... could be interesting

can you guys imagine Mick winning races next year wiht Haas.....that would be wild....althogh prolly not reachable from Haas's point of view

Haas actually replaced alot of the dallara staff with Ferrari's. They only retained about 30 dallara employees.

Still, they completely abandoned 2021 so hopefully they've made good progress for next season. We need them closer.

We need all the Ferrari-engined cars closer to challenge the Merc and Honda-powered teams, so that includes Alfa as well as Haas. It will be an interesting year!

Should that not have been the opposite?

I can't really fault this list.

Would personally have liked to see Leclerc higher.

But overall, great to see the two Ferrari drivers rated so highly.

I'm surprised to see Lando in top 3, he had a v good 2020 compared to last year. And probably Vettel or Perez on number 10

#AMuS The Alpine PU lacked around 35 hp to the best. For 2022, a completely new PU has been created. Not only because of the E10 fuel. The test bench results confirm all the targets.

Team says: "If we can get the engine reliable, we'll make a big step."

This season is turning out to be pretty exciting!
A strong lineup for each team except for HAAS, Alfa, and Williams.

Agreed. He deserved to be in Top 10. I wonder what went into the thinking by voting Schumacher as drivers in Top 10.

Even if its serious, I wonder why Epson was offended. Maybe Toto was actually banging Bose headphones on Epson printer kept on the table. We never saw the full video.

I thought they were all jabbed up already? Or does this mean they need a 3rd, 4th and 9th jab as well? Will they still wear masks too despite being octo-jabbed?

Wonder how Philip Morris will rebrand their advertising campaign?

I doubt PMI will advertise anything. Santander will rebrand the missing "Mission Winnow" on the cars and on the suits-->drivers and pit crew.

If they don't, guess they will just rely on their red colour then.

Ferrari are lucky to have such a receiving relationship with Phillip Morris. I mean Ferrari's have been red regardless of sponsor, and now there is pretty much nothing being advertised to show PMI is a sponsor. I don't know what Ferrari is going to do if and when PMI cancels the sponsorship. No way they are going to get that much money from Coca-cola.

Yes. Hope they stay on.

Ever since 1997, the shade of red changed from the more darker burgundy or blood red to the brighter red of Marlboro. Their sponsorship is basically the whole paintwork.
