Mercs looks strong, only FP1, but...
Okey, now it looks better, I was little bit worried
Ericsson and Wehrlein out, and Giovinazzi and Leclerc in. rumour

Mercedes diffuser. The tiniest of details matter, like the vertical fin, a late season addition, with the tiny stay steadying it against the flap.

Ferrari's monkey seats, they keep keep the air flow attached to the rear along with help from the exhaust flow. They're not quitebanned next year, but will not be allowed so close the exhaust. Red oxide in the tail pipe hints at fuel additives to reduce knock.

Ferrari's late season wing spec. Note the little vane between the wing and endplate.

McLaren's wing one of the most complex in the pitlane. Cue tweets of "all thats wrong" with F1, overtaking and costs etc etc etc.. NB Neat little flap angle adjuster.

OFF topic.....why is there NO martini stickers on the williams cars???
So 2023 started off bad, but managed to claw back some lap time come end of the year. Lets hope SF24 will give us tifosi something to smile about.
new track record or
It's very quiet on this thread for a GP weekend, hardly surprising as the WDC/WCC are done and dusted, it would be nice to think we could end on a high and we're OK so far in FP1/2 but HAM still has the edge. As for Sauber, I'd love to see Leclerc and Giovinazzi there but Ericsson's involvement provides a lot of their operating budget. Difficult situation but Marchionne usually gets his own way, Sauber-Alfa is OK with me.
Man, I think this track is so deathly bland and boring.
or is it just me?
Mercedes look a bit faster. Only friday, we will see tomorroe in qualy. Finishing with a win would be nice, maybe a double podium too
Hamilton : Vettel just went very wide on the exit of Turn 1 , don't know if that's allowed...
I did read somewhere that Honda next PU has +30 HP . Toro Rosso could be another top team next year.
New lap record from Hamilton with a 1m 37.627s to go half a second quicker.
Mercs are miles ahead
