By JesalR Go To PostStrange from Merc to two-stop him thoughHe was slow on hards, felt like they covered Lewis.
But strange others can 1 stop easy, when Merc on front limited track cannot
Lando all weekend own class, updated McL rockets hip, RBR19 dominant. McL need to pull all egs in Lando's basket, WC is there for the taking
Max maximized
Did not see Ferrari pace coming, great race by Charles
Oscar lost it in Q and at the start
Merc 40 secs behind Lando, did not see that coming before Summer
Pierreeee best of the rest

McLaren surely matter of time before they catch RBR
:0 I've missed some shit

Mclaren caught up and would be even ahead if they weren’t morons
By markao Go To PostStandings:Whoa, this is getting exciting. I know that McLaren has improving a lot the last couple of years, but didn't see them challenge for the title this year.

Williams Racing announces that Franco Colapinto will race with the team for the remainder of the 2024
Did not see that coming, by that I mean a rookie with no F1 experience. Vowles must have been seriously done with Logan to make a change with that much risk.
Ok move to put a Williams Jr in that seat, gives some credit to that Jr program for the future (getting better Jrs)

Sargent, one of the worst drivers I've ever seen
Scott Speed was better
How long ago did we have an argentine on the grid?
Mazzacane or Tuero, who was the last one? More than 20 years a go, surely.

RaceWeek, Round 16 in a very hot Monza for the Italian GP
Loooow downforce set-ups so hard to call,
- but last year Ferrari only one with a pure extra low downforce for Monza and they came close to RBR that weekend, will they have one again and can do better than last few races. (specially Q)
- others no real clue, but do not expect McL as far ahead (in Q) as in Zandvoort on a higher down force package, maybe Race pace again due to better tire management in this heat?
- Behind those four also no real indication, first time this low downforce
Other factors are the extreme heat, newly resurfaced track and slightly altered first chicane, made wider

Nah, already done. Just over confident and pushed a bit to hard to prove himself, no need to find the limit in FP1.

FP1:
- new tarmac looks low grip (dirty) and massive graining on tires, might become an issue if no improvement rest weekend.
- I think Merc and RBR (to much wing or PU down S1/S3 slow?) with two runs soft, McL/Fer soft/med

FP2:
-Kevin red flag was in the middle of the red q-sims, so some did two laps, while other did not put a time on the board on reds (Max for example, S1/2 less than two tenths behind, around Charles time). But top 4 teams all look very close today
-George, due to Kimi crash and Sergio (do not know reason yet) had to sit out half the session (repairs). So limited long runs and quick lap in around traffic (Sergio)
- Long runs looked mostly similar pace wise, but had unexpected for Monza time drop off (other than Lewi, who started slowly, but got quicker in the end), overheating tires?
- And feel that RBR can not get away this year with slightly bigger rear-wing, they give away to much free time, specially S1), wonder what they try tomorrow.
Longrun data:
Keviiiiiin, Lesmo 2

"Breaking"
Feels extremely risky, but I guess they're in the last year of this regulation cycle that they've been relatively poor during. Guess it's worth a shot to them?

The "extra" talent is there, so it is all about mental strength. And we will see that next year, hard to comment on that right now and Mercedes should know.
Don't feel where they are on the grid right now matters much. He was always Toto' s 2nd choice and with Max staying, choice was easy.

FP3:
- RBR long run, still pace drop off, graining? George long-run (lighter car) had no such problem, faster in the end.
- Single lap Ferrari really fast on old tires (4/5th push lap), but no improvement on new ones. George was also complaining about balance/grip, so teams might struggle to get tire working well in 1st push lap?
Pole, so close right now (Oscar/Max small error) that the right track position might determine the outcome if FP3 was representative.

By Vini.lad Go To PostMagnussen 100% caused that yellow on purpose so he could go throughHis board radio was suspect indeed. "oh no I went off"
1st run McL
Max error entry Parabolica, curb inside.... are they going to sacrifice Sergio? nope weird

Others mega close, top 6 less than 2 tenths
Max made mess of q3, big chance for Lando

RBR did not just lack pace, their execution was tragic.
Both q1 and q2, second run on used set fastest by far. Q3 to runs on new, someone needs to make that call. And why on earth Sergio was not used as tow, or himself after going off and abandoning his lap, is just dumb.
Race tomorrow top 6 was so close in long runs, start will be mega and DRS trains with RBR falling away bit quicker (tire wear?) if Friday pace was indicative.
