    Not sure what to make of RB here. Yes they seem quick but last race Ric's engine failed and now Max has another engine issue?

    They seem to say, they want to limit the engine as it's seeking more oil. Horner said to skyf1.
    I think these mid reg eng change is damn bull s...

    Personally momentum has disrupted becoz of this change particularly Ferrari.

    Long run pace on US
    Ham > Ric > mad max > bottas > vet > kimi

    Pace on Soft tyres
    Ric > kimi > bottas .....Ham n vet didn't run soft tyres

    Pace of SS tyres
    Only vet had SS run, other drivers didn't do stint on SS tyres.

    Interesting note: Ham on race sim went out on US tyres. N stayed on it till the end of the session. N doing high 1.21's.

    Not nappy with our performance.
    But once again it's only Friday so let's wait and see .
    However, the SF70H did not change its behavior, perhaps because of the lack of grip shown on the track that did not get rubberized although many cars were still running. Vettel, however, was astonished by improving his time at the end of his long run with a 1'20 "7 that predicts Red is going to improve!
    FERRARI FOR EVER !!!!!!!

    Loose screws, faulty spark plugs are very common in F1 esp to a new to the sport team like Ferrari. Forget about working on areo, pu, chassis, tyre choices etc. Loose screws is where high tech comes in. Just imagine how Seb feels! ! I can't ! I'm just glad Seb got home safe.

    Too many beginners faults by team.... Don't know who to blame, but things like this are not supposed to happen... Any way, hoping for far better things today!

    Super counter to horner n RB. Who always threaten to leave sport for their competitiveness sake.

    If Hamster is fifth or better, then he wins WDC this weekend, is that correct?
