2024 Circuit of the Americas Grand Prix- Practice, Sprint & Qualifying

[PURE PASSION]

Sector 1 + sector 3 a little bit slow


P3 + P5 - clean side on a new-resurfaced track is not a bad result but could have been better

I thought Lec had purple S3??!!

I thought Lec had purple S3??!!

My mistake, it was S1+S2

We lost 1-2 tenths to the Max in S1 and then another tenths in S2 to Russell

I feel pole was there for leclerc. His S1 ruined the chance. But I am happy that Ferrari is competitive at this track where everyone got the upgrade package & Ferrari none.

[nani_s23]

I will be at the track for Sprint Race/Quali & Main Race.

Hopefully Ferrari lock the front row. Please

Guys, any working links?

I feel like Max got lucky with that pole. I expect him to drop out of the top 3 after a few laps of racing. Max can do a special lap but the advantage they had at the start of the year where the tires seemed to last forever is gone (I think it had something to with the cheat brakes..). Max is a good starter so he will be in front after first corner. Whoever is in 2nd after the first lap will win the race.

just saw a video of Lec on S1. It was awful and really bumpy!!
And that he still managed to grab P3 in front of Norris ,after this , it was a bit impressive !!!

Charles is a much better driver than he is given credit for.

[Brembo]

Ferrari for sure agrees with you! A top car next year will do the trick.

[Greig]

Sainz is gonna take both cars out.

[racingbradley]

What on earth was Sainz doing? He pushed Charles off the track!!!!!!

[Greig]

Pace looks quite good.

[racingbradley]

Charles got past Russell

[elnano14]

Leclerc fastest man on the track now

[Greig]

Red Bull return to pace is sad to see.

[Kyss4k]

Impressive from Carlos

[drax]

Well I think we can fight for a win here, at least do the most points on the WCC

Great result no upgrades and very fast 2025 looks solid grat points and race win is on the cards The days of redbull sailing into the sunset are well and truely over.

[GoodtimesF1]

Good job from Carlos. He was clearly the faster driver out of the 2 in this race. Win could have been possible without the fighting but it's only a sprint race.

[tifosi1993]

We have the pace to win this race. So, let's have a good quali and then get the job done tomorrow.

Red Bull return to pace is sad to see.

It's possibly the asymmetric braking...

[elnano14]

We are faster than both McLaren and Mercs, much better tyres management

And despite spending most the race behind dirty air there's not much between us and Max

We could have won this race is yesterday was better and/or better start / not spending time fighting each other

Pace is pretty strong. I'm optimistic

[racingbradley]

RB in Max's hands still look the car to beat. Norris cracks under pressure so a definite 2 & 3 should be ours for the taking tomorrow and with a bit of luck maybe even a win!!!!!

[Greig]

It's possibly the asymmetric braking...

That cheating is banned now.

[jgonzalesm6]

That cheating is banned now.

It never took place to begin with.

[Greig]

It never took place to begin with.

Yes it did

[jgonzalesm6]

Yes it did

Prove that one too.

Oh, I have seen articles from the media about asymmetric braking but nothing confirmed by the FIA that RedBull had asymmetric braking.

[PURE PASSION]

Ι consider that Sai was over aggressive on his fight with Lec and risked a double dnf , but a give a bit of the blame to Lec that he was not fast enough to not give him the opportunity . So all in all happy but not enough. Lets hope that in Q and mostly in tomorrows race we will show the performance we look to have here and fight for the win.
Till now it looks that our Monza upgrades works quite good and have transformed the car making it genuine win contender in every track. Please let it confirmed also tomorrow and in the next races, mostly bacause this show that thet have understood the pros /cons the tunnel/ track correlation works well and all this lloks good for next year !!!!
