    Barring any engine failures with the Red Bull I don't see how we can win with our tyre performance going off so quickly. This race can always throw up surprises though with safety cars and such. We might need a lot of luck today to get the win.

    Such a shame the red bull is bullet proof everywhere.

    Horner coming out of the Ferrari hospitality and giving the "bird" (middle finger) to the cameraman.

    Rumors are circling that Fred is trying to poach top or senior engineers from RedBull. I say good for Fred.
    It's not how start but how you finish.

    Agreed, I'd be more than happy for a podium finish for Charles, but it's all up in the air on a circuit like Baku, anything can happen and with our tyre deg and reliability worries, it's hard to be too optimistic. Forza ragazzi.

    I'll be happy with a 3rd place today. Any other luck would be that perez and verstappen take each other out.........( unlikely, but its worth mentioning )
    Drive it like you stole it!

    DRS is naff. Never been a fan. Eddie Irvine said it years ago: it should be difficult to overtake
