Let's hope it's a good race to end the season

[TonyRizza]

it wont be for ferrari, looks like leclerc might be in a bit of trouble for "Significant difference between the declaration of the team and the amount of fuel inside the car" in qually

[tifosi1993]

Already up to a bad start:

FIA technical delegate Jo Bauer reports there is a "significant difference between the declaration of the team and the amount of fuel inside the car", breaching a TD. Matter referred to the stewards"

Not really sure what the rule is or why it's needed, are we saying for example we have 40kg of fuel but really have 60kg or something? why would it matter?

not sure why it would matter either. Maybe its for fuel flow regulation?

Possible DQ for Leclerc after the race.....I stress possible.

Because a fuel amount rule has been place since the start of this season. Teams have to declare how much fuel is in the car.

[Hornet]

I just want to enjoy some good racing on the track.
Whatever happens after that wont matter as the season will be over, and we'll be looking forward to next season

[tifosi1993]

Something like this:

"Ferrari said they had x amount of fuel on board, but when the FIA have checked, they found out Ferrari had y amount of fuel on board"

Ferrari basically lied to the FIA about the amount of fuel they will use for this race.

Ferrari basically lied to the FIA about the amount of fuel they will use for this race.

But why would it matter and why would we lie about it?

yeah i get that but i dont see why it would make a difference.
im sure we will find out shortly though

[tifosi1993]

I don't why they lied about it. And its matter because it's a breach of FIA's rule.

[tifosi1993]

Leclerc's losing 0.6-0.8 to Hamilton in the last sector...

But Leclerc is quite faster than Hamilton in sector 1 and 2.

Undercut Verstappen on the way to Hards.

[tifosi1993]

If Leclerc somehow get the DRS behind Hamilton, he will blast past him.

[chinmay]

Double stack Leclerc and Vettel.

Umm... really? He is half a second slower than Hamilton. And that's on the good lap.
