Why is Lec time so low?
Then I don't know if it's my problem, but they're completely ignoring Ferrari when doing fast laps and showing how Ham chills in the pits... Frustrating.
Ferrari per sempre !
Something doesn't add up about Charles time. He's definitely not 5 tenths slower than Carlos. He knows the car better and no disrespect but I think he is more naturally gifted so i'm cautiously optimistic he could be around Max' time.
Sky is slowly trying to replace Hamilton with Max, they are actually talking more about Max than Hamilton. The narrative has been set....Max Vs Ham.
~FORZA FERRARI~
CL is quite not there....
Any long runs???
FERRARI FOR EVER !!!!!!!
We aren't there on long run pace i don't think...
Think we will be fighting for 4th, at least here.
Hard to say, long run pace looks okish but teams are clearly running lower power modes. Merc and red bull in a class of their own.
Verstappen/Hamilton doing 31 flat S1, mid 42.4 S2, 24.1 S3 on mediums 7 laps old
Sainz is doing 31.3 S1, 42.7 S2, 24.3 S3 on mediums. 5 laps old
Norris doing 31.15 S1, 42.7 S2, 24.2 S3 on mediums 4 laps old
Leclerc doing 31.35 S1, 43 S2, 24.7 S3 on softs 9 laps old
Leclerc has gone on to mediums now and did
First full lap 30.8 S1, 42.5 S2, 23.9 S3.
comparable to the Mercs/RB but again hard to say fuel loads and session ended after his first full lap plus those guys did mid 1m 36 and beginning of stint.
I think we are fighting for 3rd/4th best which given last year is the best we could have hoped for.
Good session. Think we are just off the Mclaren, Mercedes & Red Bull but look good compared to Alpine, Aston Martin and Alpha Tauri
Did Carlos use the DRS cause I saw him not using it on the back and main straight in his last lap?
Ferrari per sempre !
Wow, Sky actually saying that Sainz long runs look good....
~FORZA FERRARI~
Chandhok looks the most bearable to listen from that bunch. JB and di Resta are OK too. Croft and Brundle sometimes are just crap, even if Brundle has lots of F1 knowledge.
Ferrari per sempre !
Sainz only 0.05 slower than Ham.
Don't worry about Leclerc. We don't know what he was doing and what Sainz was doing exactly. Times in FP are not that important, as long as one of the cars is on the right pace we can trust the other can do the same if he has to.
You can run like the wind, but you'll never outrun the Prancing Horse
Sick of mercedes bluffing. Does my head in.
when Carlos and Max were teammates, there were not so much difference

I personally switch all commentary off and go to FX mode on F1 TV. This way i don't have to suffer the biases of sky uk and co :D
GJ by the team considering that leclrec will surely be faster than carlos :) at least this was the case the past years, always 2, 3 tenth behind vettel and come qualy always ahead by as much
Encouraging day but I always said I was worried about Mclaren as well as Merc/RB, we are definitely in there and Carlos ahead of Charles in FP2, surprising but all will be revealed over the weekend.
The official website says Charles suffered from traffic on his fastest lap, which should explain the time.
I hope for one car in the second and the other in the third row tomorrow.
Yes and on 2nd one he made mistake...
