2024 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix - Race Thread

At least it'll be interesting.

We suck and our updates suck as well

[Red is Best]

Leclerc looks much faster than Norris.

False alert

[Tifoso Svedese]

Absolutely pathetic upgrade as usual. Once again being circled by McLaren around an engine circuit with a much stronger power unit than them.

Absolute pathetic post as usual.

So many "fans" don't understand what these updates are.

[drax]

Charles seems to have pace to fight the mclarens Carlos a bit less

[Red is Best]

Second place is still possible IMHO.

[Tifoso Svedese]

Absolute pathetic post as usual.

Well top lad Elkann has made sure there can't be any further upgrades by getting paid off by Liberty to not fight the budget cap which has turned F1 into a participation trophy American sports league where small teams get artificially levelled. So yeah, unfortunately not much to do this decade at least.

Why don't you enlighten us

Crazy that Verstappen is dominating and Perez is not more than a moving chicane.

We were much slower than McLaren in Miami so the updates have added performance, just not as much as needed to overhaul. From the race so far our degredation is no worse than RB and McLaren and that's been out Achilles heel for a long time. You are talking a tenth here or there per lap.

The difference between Max and Sergio is just bonkers. Sergio might not be getting the maximum out of the car but throw Max in that McLaren or Ferrari and he'd still be six seconds down the road.

[Greig]

Why don't you enlighten us

Why don't you go read about them before telling us they suck.

[tifosi1993]

And now we are not losing much time in the first sector

[drax]

Either we are two stopping or Charles looks faster than bothe McLarens

I still think that RB has the better car, but yeah that difference is insane. Maybe it doens't suit Perez at all.

Frederic Vasseur : "the Imola updates have been conceived before the start of the season, so they are not designed to deal with the limitations of the car that emerged later. They are meant to improve load and aerodynamic efficiency at high speeds, therefore Imola will not be very representative of the gains obtained."

Not a good sign

[tifosi1993]

Overtaking is very hard here

[Greig]

Cmon Charles keep the pressure on.

[DJTaurus]

Is everyone going till the end ?

[Red is Best]

The car has really good race pace, it's encouraging. We could have won this race with better qualifying and strategy. We are not that far.

[Aviamata]

I'm so worry but do we have hope for a good result ? Look like LEC is flying in this car

[tifosi1993]

Bozzi: "I think it will happen at the end, keep some juice in the tyres"

Couldn't agree more.

[drax]

It’s going to be very hard

[tifosi1993]

Mistake from Charles

[Greig]

Cmon Charles..

[drax]

Small mistake

[stefa]

CL made mistake

[stefa]

I am afraid that 3rd and 5th is what is going to be today
