Can't wait to see what Charles can do with this car. Less understeery front tyres, stronger front end, it should suit him nicely.

Is that straight that much bumpy, or it is porpoising?

I don't think I have ever seen the F1-75 sparking on the straights as much as the SF23. So Ferrari already running the car much lower than they ever did last year, even before the TD39. Positive sign.

Is the engine used for pre-season testing excluded from the 3 engine limit per season? What about other components such as ERS etc.?

Few screenshots of the comparisons between the SF75 and the SF23

Early days, but nice to be at the top

Didn’t watch the testing footage, but I’ve read that our car had was the most bouncy or porpoising out of all teams, is that true?

Honestly I had couple of glances at the broadcast, and I am not sure it that porpoising or that track is bumpy

Same here.
ALSO, it is the first day, noone can take anything from this. Maybe on day three.

So it's testing so the component allocation allotment is NOT included. This also includes filming day and Pirelli tire testing. Teams can change out as many components as they like during these times.
It's not how start but how you finish.

2022 Bahrain GP - Leclerc’s Pace;
Full Fuel Load with C3 Tyres Pace: 1.38.500-1.39.000
Half Fuel Load with C2 Tyres Pace: 1.36.500-1.37.000
We can have some idea with race stints.

Just watching Leclerc now, still some noticeable porpoising...
Rest in Peace Leza, you were a true warrior...

Drive it like you stole it!

To my eyes it’s a bumpy track, not porpoising

It's just the 1st day but we only have 3 of testing so it matters.
From the little I managed to read ,it looks like RedBull is a step in front. From the medium stints Ves is the only one capable of setting the fastest lap on his 1st lap and then continue lapping super consistently for 10 laps ALL in 1:36s.
We haven't managed to do that and nobody else.
Let's see .
FERRARI FOR EVER !!!!!!!

Redbull is terrifying

Yup
And I don't like it
Full Member
yeah, i know it's just the first day of testing....but they are FAST straight out of the gate and we look just average
Full Member
We kind of do.
To me we look like W13 last year to be honest, i would love to be wrong
Full Member
Well said. Precisely what I’ve been thinking of.

It finally looked like Ferrari did some actual testing today. Rather going around the track, doing short runs-long runs, topping the timesheet and racking up laps, they actually did some meaningful testing today.
The car is fast, and it will be unleased in the qualifying. Until then, hold on to your nerves.
(I am expecting the car to be more dialed up for tomorrow.)
