By markao Go To PostFound his hype last season a bit overdone, was more a McLaren that finally wasn't complete shit. And he did not shove away rookie Norris like I expected him to do, if he was top. But younger than DannyRic and if a bit slower, maybe the ideal guy next to Carlos, no internal fights, but getting the necessary points for them.Sainz is all about prestige. Or rather his father/family. He’s not better than Vettel or Nando and they couldn’t heck it at Ferrari.
DannyRic to McLaren is a sideways step, if Renault is serious, they are still constructor building their own car/engine. But maybe Danny saw enough and hopes that a budget cap makes McLaren more competitive (but could say the same for Renault?).
George Russell could potentially fill that seat at McLaren.
Going, completely voluntary, from a top car to McLaren in 3 years time. At least the Lando & DannyRic bromance will be good.
Vettel in a Mercedes doesn't seem right to me
Also would be interesting if McClaren can take it to Red Bull and try to hitch on as a fourth team ahead of the rest of the pack. Got more faith they'll do anything like that as opposed to Renault.

Stranger things have happened.
If Seb does not have a Plan B in this scenario then I believe he was pushed out of Ferrari.

It's lights out and away we go in july
Two races in one location is interesting. Logistically and given the time we live in now it makes sense to do them back to back. But sports wise it would have been more interesting with some more time in between the two races. Then teams would actually have the chance to improve on their first performance.

I'm starting to get used to the idea of racing again but it feels weird to get the the show on the road again given the events in the world.
Nico Hulkenberg has said that he wouldn't mind returning to Renault as an F1 driver. I genuinely thought that he closed the door permanently.

Looks good to me and good for them. If you don't do anything people complain and if you do you get the "put Brand here" complains.
And lets go, hopefully close race, so we have two fun ones and a good season. And looking forward to finally see that new Ferrari motor in action ;)

Mercedes' black livery can better disguise their testing ballast.

FP2 :
Race sims:
Merc 1-2-3
Merc mega from the get go , whats new in the hybrid era, RBR nervous (oversteer entry) so they have homework for tonight if they want to bother the Mercs (Max problem with frontwing). RP ahead of Ferrari and behind those two the rest of the midfield, close as always.
And Max had indeed a wing issue;

And what was bound to happen in Australia is now done in Austria
Can see this one go either way, so curious what mood the fia is in.

FP3:
Merc still fastest, specially S3, so if RBR wants to compete they need to find 2 tenths in the last 2 corners.. RP faster than Ferrari and midfield mega close. Bottom 2 Ferrari powered teams and Russel competing for the final spot in Q2.

Ferrari lads :oops: p10-p11 Vettel out , 1/2 slower than last years Q2 and pole Leclerc was second faster #nocheating
Max through on the mediums, Mercedes starts on the reds
By Lunatic Go To PostVettel is done
Wasn’t far off LeClerc. Car is awful. Well, engine mainly. Vettel 19th fastest in the speed traps.
Valteri 6.0 wow\
did not expect that
Great run by lando!! Curious how mediums at the start and 1st stint will go for Max, but on pace they cannot match Mercs anyway and Ferrari lost 0.6 over winter, sensational engineering.
Bottas 2nd run

Redbull need to start looking for a teammate to Max
Albon is seriously average. If they want a non entity alongside Max, then that's him.

By Vini.lad Go To PostRedbull need to start looking for a teammate to MaxBut who, Gasly was little more that 0.4 slower, Albon slightly behind that last year (but mid season etc.), so leaves a Vettel return, but doubt he will be a lot closer, at least will have the experience.

Q3:
Last year vs this year Q , RBR needs to understand car bit better, although think Max did not have the best of Q3 sessions of his live

The 2009 car at least developed into a winner car in the last part of the season
2014 was much worse
The 2020 is looking more like that one.

Did not understand yesterdays decision, so this seems logical call clearly visible from the 360 cam, good for the race.
grid:
And Max being a white privileged cunt, ok not the only one, shame:( even though the rest of the mesage is strong by f1 paddock!
