S-M-S for Charles?

[PURE PASSION]

S-M-S for Charles?

We run a lot on C1s (Hard) so i think they have this in mind

[patrese86]

Not sure we have a fresh medium. Sure I've read that the medium compound isn't ideal and that's why we tried to get them out of the way in Q1. Maybe Soft-Hard and then see how we are fairing later in the race

[brucewayne]

Hards seem to be better than Mediums. Maybe S-H-S

[tifosi1993]

S-M-S for Charles?

S-H-H

[patrese86]

Leclerc has to take a new energy store. So it begins..

any stream link? its not available in phillipines because it's been taken by espn, last year it's available with premier sports channel

[djmorin27]

It's just a precaution that's all.they said they're going to use 4 engines so they will take a new power unit when they take a 4th engine if they need to

[djmorin27]

I’m still looking into race stints.

2022 FP2 stints and 2023 FP2 stints are very close. 1.38.582 vs 1.38.508 for sainz (same tyre set)

So i think we have ~0.500-0.600 sec. more pace in our pocket. Especially for Charles.

We must be very close to RB

[alfaromeo]

Ferrari cl 16 replacement ers .. ERS 1/2

[FerrariF60]

S-M-S for Charles?

Unless we wanna be brave and use the hard?? We have a set of new I think

[FerrariF60]

Does anyone know what tire allocation we have going into the race for our drivers?

[FerrariF60]

S-H-H

Are we gonna be competitive on the hard?? Can’t remember using them in free practice

[FerrariF60]

It's just a precaution that's all.they said they're going to use 4 engines so they will take a new power unit when they take a 4th engine if they need to

Energy store is separate and not part of engine
You can take another after the 2 that are allocated per season, but there is a 5 place grid drop???? Anyone know how many grid drop places it is?

[jgonzalesm6]

So a change in the CE(control electronics) and ERS for Leclerc.

[jgonzalesm6]

Hopefully Sainz doesn't hit the anti-stall button like last year.

[JacKy]

LOL idk why but everybody ignoring us. Like Aston Martin is 0.5 second ahead of us.

[tifosi1993]

Are we gonna be competitive on the hard?? Can’t remember using them in free practice

Yes, we will be competitive. Hards are the best race tyres.

[Greig]

Merc seem to think they will be racing us and Aston today, I hope not.

Battery change for Carlos also.

[Hornet]

Excited to be watching a new season
Hope we are competitive today

[Greig]

[FerrariF60]

Yes, we will be competitive. Hards are the best race tyres.

So S-H-H will be our strategy for Charles?
And probably they’ll put Sainz on a different strategy yiu think?

[KimiBot]

New hope, starts today.

[stefa]

[458 Italia]

COME ON YOU REDS!!!

[FerrariF60]

Let’s hope for a clean start and good luck to both our drivers

[drax]

Clean start please
