They will destroy us in the race with our troubles with the tires

If it is going to be like this, yes

[JChan]

what can we ask for CL?

bahrain P1 P1
saudi P2 P2
aus P1 P1
italy P2 even P2 is good

[stefa]

Kinda disappointing here

[tifosi1993]

Here comes the overreactions. This season is over I tell you!

[totox]

Soft aren't the best tires for the race. Let's see tomorrow with mediums

If that's the case then we need to make sure we limit the damage but you don't know how we will perform on harder compounds.

We still don't bring any major upgrades and look strong.

[KingCharles]

2nd and 4th still gives us options

It’s like a home GP. Hence the disappointment will be there.

I think Ferrari needs to bring some upgrades. Look at top speed of RB.

[DJTaurus]

Max probably told lec. You had problem with the tyres ?

[Kyss4k]

I don't get it... last race we dominated with the tyre treatment, today Redbull schooled us with it. How is that possible? Really disappointed losing the win in the last lap. Oh well, that's the price you pay when racing a car with no development I guess. Hopefully after the updates come it will be worth it.

Yup. Enough waiting around. The car is very good. But they need to put some major upgrades. I think they had more enough time to learn the car.

[PURE PASSION]

It's not all over for sure, just thing's (like tire management) that supposedly was our characteristic suddenly charged hear, and this make you think what else can change. Well let's hope for the best!!!

Porpoising is definitely an issue on straight line.....this needs to be fixed.

[ferrari4life]

so we cant change setup for tommorow?
wth happed to all our pace from AUS?

[458 Italia]

Oh well onto the boxing �� here's hoping Ferrari come out swinging tomorrow as well.

We just don't know how MV push his engine harder for 21 laps, tomorrow he gonna push hard for 63 laps? maybe it will not last for his driving style. 84 laps for 2 straight days pushing hard.

[jgonzalesm6]

No, parc ferme rules. (to your first question)

[Tifoso Svedese]

The track temperatures are so low just like in Jeddah and that's why Red Bull had no degradation there. We've yet to see 40 degrees or above on any track this season bar Melbourne but that's going to be the norm going forward.

To win tomorrow Charles has to stay ahead of the other Red Bull at the start and then use the mediums well.

[nani_s23]

Porpoising is definitely an issue on straight line.....this needs to be fixed.

Yup can’t go with basic car every race. Since 4 races drivers are struggling with such issue.
I heard somewhere RB reduced their car weight to further 10kg less & ferrari to 5kg less.

It’s race of development/upgrades & reliability.

[nhiepka]

CL said his front left tyre had problem.

[tifosi1993]

The F1-75 is very good on tyres in general. I think it a was setup issue on Charles's car. It happens. Sainz had a good pace and didn't suffer any graining.

Tomorrow is a different story. Mediums and Hards are the tyres for tomorrow's race.

Russell P11 and Lewis P14.....where's the skills and talent of a 7x WDC title holder????? Crofty??? Kravitz????

The young gun is showing up Lewis.

Not that surprising. Hamilton is getting older and Russell is much younger with a big learning curve ahead. It happens all the time, with Alonso being the only exception. Age doesn't seem to affect him one bit.

still out of Q3. Merc is good for Q2 only lucky to go for Q1.

It’s just Lewis can’t handle midfield car. Gets beaten easily.

+1

[tifosi1993]

So,

Charles 78 + Carlos 38 = 116

Perez 36 + Max 33 = 69

Russell 37 + Lewis 28 = 65

[jgonzalesm6]

agreed. He's a spoiled diva.
