2023 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix - Buildup, Practice & Qualifying Thread

[KimiBot]

Vamos Carlos and Charles

[PURE PASSION]

I hope I am wrong and Ferrari surprises and gets pole or gets close to it

Mee too mate !!! Me too !!!!

[drax]

How are we slower than a HAAS ?

[patrese86]

Ok....

That's horrific if that's true pace

[JacKy]

Oh this is gotta be a joke

[330 p4]

How are we slower than a HAAS ?

I'm calling it now. Ferrari are running the whole weekend with engine turned down just to collect some minor points. They will not turn this engine up at all this weekend.

P15, mega lap from Carlos 2.32 seconds back

Ferrari is nowhere. Leclerc 1.31 seconds off of Verstappen. On to 2026.

[ferrari1.8t]

Better lap from Leclerc, still way off though

We will not make Q3 with this pace

[drax]

Ok that is better

[elnano14]

Max's pace is just untouchable

[Ferrari312T4]

We did a lot of laps on those softs. Did we set that time with some fuel?

[fastcarchar]

Next 2 sessions should be less traffic, this track is so congested lol

Atleast 8 laps worth

[drax]

Saint Leclerc

[tifosi1993]

Engine problem for Max

[drax]

Oh RB also has engine issues

[stefa]

MV out

[ferrari1.8t]

This would be Ferraris chance to crawl back some points, but knowing them they will throw their support behind Carlos who is 1.2 seconds behind Charles

[drax]

Leclerc at 0.1 same tires, common Sainz

[stefa]

Leclerc at 0.1 same tires, common Sainz

CS is just mediocre driver

[gump1480]

Sainz is pathetic...ain't he !!

[patrese86]

Well they just goes to show that Red Bull's reliability isn't bulletproof either

[ferrari1.8t]

Leclerc at 0.1 same tires, common Sainz

And some people around here still wonder why he should be labeled #2. What could have been last year had we properly supported Charles.

[KimiBot]

Max's pace is just untouchable

We don`t have to worry about that anymore.

[elnano14]

I swear if Carlos can't even beat the Mercedes

[jgonzalesm6]

We've got a race tomorrow.

[jgonzalesm6]

Well they just goes to show that Red Bull's reliability isn't bulletproof either

Looks like a gearbox issue....again.

[jgonzalesm6]

Alonso for pole?

[stefa]

CS was -0,5 on S2 and at the end he is +0,2
