2023 Austrian Grand Prix - Race Thread

[patrese86]

Red Bull just ridiculous in S3.

[Greig]

Sainz only races hard against Charles....

[PURE PASSION]

MEDIOCRE?

The problem is , how many times we have seen Carlos driving/ fighting like this ??? If he was at this level in the majority of the race's, we wouldn't talk poorly about hom!!

[FerrariF60]

I think Canada was a fluke for us in terms of tire deg
I mean the upgrades have made the car better in that regard, but we still have crappy tire wear

I mean we’re still 21 seconds off the lead

[killer]

Carlos complaining Perez was too intimidating....really....

Would be a language thing. Overly aggressive, etc.

[JacKy]

We need 0.3-0.4 to keep up with RB. It doesnt look that big but it is indeed.

[FerrariF60]

Carlos complaining Perez was too intimidating....really....

Yeah, ridiculous
One should tell him to pull up his panties
This is racing

This was for this particular race really.

[FerrariF60]

Sainz only races hard against Charles....

Agreed

[drax]

Very good race from both our drivers and another step forward by the team… tire deg although not as good as Canada still pretty good.

Considering we have a new floor and front wing that we have barely had time to learn how to set up… thing are looking a lot better

Yes that's our target now . But 0.3 is not easy to find now since we're half-year behind RB cuz we had to fixed our problem

[killer]

Lando caught dead to rights

Sainz only races hard against Charles....

From faster than Charles to now 15 seconds behind and losing time every lap. But nonetheless, his performance today is impressive.

[tifosi1993]

Charles's lap times are now similar to Max.

[Aviamata]

From faster than Charles to now 15 seconds behind and losing time every lap. But nonetheless, his performance today is impressive.

I think reason why is that he destroyed his tyre while defending against Perez

[stefa]

MV pitted for FL. They have that much!!!!

[killer]

What a bunch of Red Bull are.

[Greig]

Max just never lets up.

[FerrariF60]

No t he was only faster cause he had drs

[tifosi1993]

I think reason why is that he destroyed his tyre while defending against Perez

He also had 3 DRS zones and Ferrari was asking Charles to conserve his tyres. As soon as he lost the DRS the pace difference emerged.

[killer]

A 5s for Perez would be nice

[Greig]

Good job today, best we could probably do, well ahead of the mighty Merc and AM.

[tifosi1993]

Well done to Ferrari. P2 and P4 and easily the 2nd best team. But we need bigger upgrades if we want to leapfrog Max and the RB.

[Aviamata]

Nice race ! , we're closing the gap on Merc and AM

[killer]

Good good effort today.

[Greig]

Only 5s behind Red Bull, gap is closed!!!

[stefa]

Good haul of points for Ferrari

[JacKy]

Race Pace order like ( For this race )

RB 0.0
Fer +0.4
MC +0.65
Aston +0.75
Merc +0.8

I mean we looked dreadful 2 months ago. It is nice to back on podium

[KimiBot]

Looks much better now. Next year hopefully fighting to win races.

[tifosi1993]

No t he was only faster cause he had drs

Yup. 3 DRS zones is a huge advantage.
