2024 EMILIA-ROMAGNA Grand Prix - Practice & Qualifying Thread

[Aviamata]

That's leave 0.5s for RB to find in FP3 , but i think the only threat are Macas

[elnano14]

How is our race pace??
McL look really strong

Neck and neck with them
Not too much different between us - McLaren - Red Bull, Mercedes's pace on Hard is promising too

[racingbradley]

Oh heck will Charles be penalised? He couldn't do anything about it as Perez was in his way!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They are investigating the incident for impeding and it was Perez who impeded Charles. So Perez is the one who'd get a penalty. (But it was practice, so I'm expecting a slap on the wrist, probably a fine)

Everyone in top 6 has the chance to win in this weekend . Merc surprisingly good so I'm really afraid for Sainz right now , he need to get in front of these Merc atleast

[PURE PASSION]

Not the most consistent stint from Lec ,compared to Norris whose was longer .
BUT Lec had some very fast laps (he did 1:20:00 & 1:20:19 ) .
So we are not in safe, we are not clearly faster but I think if we have a good weekend with no troubles ,Lec have a big chance to take pole -win

[Kyss4k]

As I see it from watching the times, it's between us and McLaren this weekend. Red Bull may yet sort out their car, but so far they are not in the fight. McLaren looks really fast and consistent, we seem to have faster ultimate lap time, but the consistency during the long run is kinda lacking.

[elnano14]

I just think Leclerc had too many traffic in his long runs, so it affected his long runs pace, eliminate his traffic lap times and his long runs looked consistent again

Charles (7 laps old scrapped mediums at the start of the stint)
1:20.869
1:21.033
1:20.196
1:20.023
1:20.512
1:20.631
1:20.654
1:21.277
1:21.433

[elnano14]

Also the hards look like the fastest race tyres this race with very good deg
Both Ferrari in Fp1, Piastri + Mercedes in Fp2 pace on Hard were very fast compare to other Medium runners

[racingbradley]

We need a good day to-morrow especially in qualifying. I reckon RB will burn the mid-night oil and break the curfew to try and sort out their car!!
McLaren are quick and consistent and Merc cannot be ruled out.
Let's hope we have some luck in front of the Tifosi.

[Aviamata]

According to Jock Clear , there is no panic from McLaren pace and they will work on improving tire degradation in FP3

[FerrariF60]

the Ferrari is solid, bar any mistakes from team and/or strategy i think Ferrari/Leclerc will easily win it

[racingbradley]

Carlos and Charles 1,2 at present. now it's time for qualifying sims. We will see how that goes!!!!

[PURE PASSION]

The answers in Qualy

[stefa]

McLaren is a real threat

[PURE PASSION]

Didn't watch after Perez exit . It was a red flag with a few minutes to go. How Norris managed to complete the lap???

[FerrariF60]

Looks like it’s mclaren vs ferrari of old days and with Max in the mix

It’s game On for quali……bring it on

[FerrariF60]

McLaren is a real threat

McLaren vs Ferrari of old days mate….hopefully we’ll come out in top

3 tenths done on his teammate

[Aviamata]

Ferrari vs McLaren is real F1 , it's been a long time since 2012

[Aviamata]

Top 4 teams all only have 4 sets of soft tyres for qualifying so good first run during Q1 and Q2 will be very crucial

[drax]

Starting Q1 on mediums curious

[Aviamata]

We should have tyres advantage if we don't need to use new soft in Q1

[tifosi1993]

Charles made few mistakes in the first sector, otherwise he would've easily done 1:15.7. Pace is really good.
