2024 Bahrain Grand Prix - Practice & Qualifying Thread

The question is, why did Ferrari send them out on mediums?
Typically Ferrari...

Umm...I see nothing wrong with it. They have 2 sets of C1 available and the C2 did only one lap.

[hakanabi]

Clearly rb were sandbagging lol

[tifosi1993]

Yet to see Ferrari go below 29.000 in the first sector

[Aviamata]

No mistake for our guys now

Yet to see Ferrari go below 29.000 in the first sector

big question is, will it happen???

[faloupas]

At the moment it seems that nothing changed...but lets wait for Q3.
If we are behind McLaren than its another lost year

[FerrariF60]

new boots, common guys lets SEND it

[tifosi1993]

Monster sector 2 and 3 from Charles. But some people here can't help themselves and always have to say something bad about him....

[ferrari1.8t]

Let’s goooo!! Forza Ferrari 1-3…1-2 is in reach

[Kyss4k]

It's now obvious we went for high downforce setup. We are monsters in the second sector but are losing on the straights. Hopefully we won't be sitting ducks in the race

[tifosi1993]

It did, but still 3 tenths slower than Max in that sector

[Aviamata]

S1 is killing us !

[tifosi1993]

Charles's engineer told him to abort the lap but he ignored him

[FerrariF60]

It did, but still 3 tenths slower than Max in that sector

so what's maxipad adn red fools doing differently than??

[Tony]

Careful, the track was getting a lot faster at the end, times are not representative...

[tifosi1993]

I still think it's engine mode. If it was drag then we would've been a lot slower in the final sector

Really? I really don’t understand what is going on between Charles and the Pitwall.

That's good mentality from him now ! Compare to last year

[faloupas]

Charles...great lap..we something more in S1

[elnano14]

Max had a very big tow in his fastest lap, probably worth ~3 tenths
His 2nd lap sector 1 was only 1 tenth faster than Leclerc

[FerrariF60]

I still think it's engine mode. If it was drag then we would've been a lot slower in the final sector

we'll find out soon enough if and when ferrari will turn the WICK at its highest mode

[Aviamata]

Funny how where SF-23 weakest is now SF-24 strength . S2 is monster

[FerrariF60]

Really? I really don’t understand what is going on between Charles and the Pitwall.

maybe they didn't want to show their hand jsut yet adn wait for Q3

[ferrari1.8t]

maybe they didn't want to show their hand jsut yet adn wait for Q3

That’s what I was thinking.

[FerrariF60]

LETS GO BOYS

[tifosi1993]

Charles out on scrubbed softs but he only did an outlap with them, Sainz on brand new

[Aviamata]

Now let's go full power and get a double front-row

[FerrariF60]

Now let's go full power and get a double front-row

that'd be SIMPLY AMAZING

[Aviamata]

Let's hold our breath for Charles's 2nd and last run !

[ferrari1.8t]

Charles in beast mode on used tires!
