Sainz's first sector was really good. Was he having a tow ?

No tow.

So 0.150 off Bottas with no tow isn’t bad...unless the Merc dialed down the engine for practice....

It’s only practice after all, we’ll get the true picture come quali

Any free links for FP2?.

Thanks

Don't expect any non-merc car in top 8 except Verstappen. Huge power advantage for merc cars. Ferrari doesn't stand a chance here or Monza.

Yup, mercs been playing with red bull Honda this year by letting them win a few races and letting them think that Honda is as good as the Merc.....now we see the ugly truth when Merc is turning up the engine YET again as we’ve seen in the past....

Sadly Hamster will easily get his 8th this year.....makes me sick to my stomach

**patrese86** · 27th August 2021, 13:46

All we needed.

**ferrari1.8t** · 27th August 2021, 13:47

Red flag! Charles in the barriers

It is like that since the beginning of this new turbo era... It is discusting!!!

**stefa** · 27th August 2021, 13:51

So what about that new engine? Are we using it or not?

**stefa** · 27th August 2021, 13:53

Hope it is going to rain on Sunday, so maybe it will be red on roulette

**stefa** · 27th August 2021, 13:58

Great on board, from FA helmet, camera!!!

But first they have to fix Charles car as he crashed

**stefa** · 27th August 2021, 13:58

MAX crash!

Driver error, just lost the rear out of turn 6. Bit of an odd one.

**Nick Singer** · 27th August 2021, 14:17

Oh dear, seems the Scuderia is going to give me as much stress and (quite possibly) disappointment this year as my other team, Norwich City!

Rain at Spa is about our only chance..

**PURE PASSION** · 27th August 2021, 15:01

From the 37 second mark of the video.

This is going to be a difficult few races for the team, Charles trying too hard to get the under-powered SF21,maybe? If only we had the upgraded power unit before Spa and Monza, we may have stood a better chance. Weather is bound to play its part, hope the car isn't badly damaged, and FP1 had shown some promise so let's hope the set-up will be better for quali.

**jgonzalesm6** · 28th August 2021, 08:20

F3....track is wet. Rain currently.

**stefa** · 28th August 2021, 10:14

Track is wet. All on INTER

**20000rpm** · 28th August 2021, 10:23

Edit- nvm, got it.

**gump1480** · 28th August 2021, 10:35

Are we still this slow in wet.. My god !! Looks like Ferrari this year has absolutely no idea why the car which took poles on certain tracks is battling with Williams and Alfa Romeo on others.
