2022 Spanish Grand Prix - Race Thread

Well I saw the pace on full fuel on softs on 50°. This should be the worst case scenario for us from what we have seeing in previous races.And Lec was tenth by tenth faster then Ves and kept his tires for 22 laps !!!!! I'm pretty sure he had the edge over Ves !!!

Then that’s good for rest of the season. Now the next issue to resolve is Straight-line speed.
We need a 2019 kinda engine for rest of the season at high powered tracks.

3rd win in a row... And a lot of people here are saying we are the fastest

So Ves took the win because HE was fastest!!!!
You should stop watching races, just watch the results!!!!

Carlos really needs to step it up ASAP. Any more mistakes/underperforming and we will slowly but surely slip out of contention of the WCC. I hope this spin in his home GP doesn't destroy his confidence even more. It's embarrassing watching such a great car's potential be wasted like that.

He can't step up. Last year made him look way better than he actually is. He's not a WDC material and not even close to Charles-Max's level. And right now, Checo looks way better option than Sainz.

AAAAAAAnnnnnnnd the quitter gets the fastest lap currently.

In 2019 was not just the engine. We had the most speed efficient car with not so good aero.

Foolish comment. Sainz was ahead of Charles last year, so I guess that made him better driver, by applying your logic that is.

Red Bull-Mercedes had no answer to Charles and the F1-75. So quit trolling and go sulk somewhere.

Another problem is Carlos Sainz performance.
Look at Perez, he blocked Leclerc at imola & now in P2. He’s doing wt RB & Max wanted.

Sainz need to step up his game else I don’t understand his contract for 2years. But I feel he’s much more stronger than his current form. Not sure whether pressure is taking on him.

Binotto seems to have a lot of faith in Carlos.

Hamilton chasing Sainz...ok...

We don't even need him to be championship material. If he starts to consistently finish on the podium (consistency being the quality he has been famous for), it's more than enough.

Leclerc was the fastest man on track even on the first stint. What's wrong with saying that ?

[samboozik]

Pole position number 13 in his career, he was bound to have some bad luck.

[MSC Fan]

Okay, what the hell is Hamilton doing on the tail of Sainz? How did Mercedes get so quick?

[Noquarter]

Hopefully Ferrari will get rid of Sainz after this season.

if you believe in that sort of thing.

he just got a 2 years extension

We can say what we want, but Max won 3 race in a row and that's a fact, we lost 40 point lead in 3 races, but yeah, we are the fastest, yeahhhh so happy

[WS6TransAm01]

I’m out.

Two Chains passes Carlos and I’m done.

Hamilton from P18 catches and passes Carlos…we have the fastest car? That’s just the icing on the cake for me for this disaster of a race. Unbelievable.

[nuni]

Sainz is a useless 2nd driver.

[Kyss4k]

It's Sainz.

[elnano14]

So we must are crying and so defeated now instead of hoping for a better future with those upgrades already working
I swear all of you guys are the most negative people I've ever seen

[ferrari1.8t]

It's Sainz.

No, it’s Mercedes developing a turd and finding over a second in 3-4 races.

I said LECLERC AND F175, not SAINZ AND F175

[Ferrari312T4]

Sainz is indeed useless. How many times did he bin it this year?

[Ferrarichamp]

looking forward to Charles winning in Monaco, and forget this race.

Tell me one thing, for how long to you hope we can win the championship?

[nani_s23]

We don’t have straight line speed that’s evident once again. For carlos he doesn’t have anything in S2&S3. Not sure what set up he’s gone for absolutely stupid.

[ferrari1.8t]

Unless his Monaco luck continues….the way this year is going I wouldn’t doubt it.

[Schumiklub]

Sainz is useless lately, I followed his pace while Leclerc was still leading, he was miles slower than Leclerc and on the same tyre.
