    Their engine is the best by a substantial margin.
    Best compromise all around.

    So strategy is overall better this year.

    Drivers are basically the same (downside is no improvement).

    Seems like the biggest issue is the car itself and Ferrari doesn’t seem to have answers there in terms of keeping up with other team upgrades. Whose fault is that? And can it be fixed for next season?

    Should Ferrari throw in the towel at this point for this season, and invest it all on improved car for next season?

    I doubt anything would have happened with Mclaren if Honda stuck with them.

    Mclarens ethos is "It's my way or the highway!"

    The mistakes he made in his early career are still there.

    I think they would have not had reached the depths of F1 as they bounced around from Renault to Mercedes

    2nd or 3rd in the constructors standings is much better than 8th or 9th….

    100% fact. If it’s not the car giving up the ghost, it’s bad strategy. If it’s not bad strategy or the car, the drivers make a mistake. I’m actually happy Ferrari are failing. They do not deserve and have not earned a better position in the constructors standings above 4th or 5th imo. RB and Merc have demonstrated what pinpoint accuracy and professional execution can garner these last 10 yrs or so. C’mon Ferrari! Wake the eff up become the team your founder created!

    It's engine though. Mercedes, Honda and Ferrari are extremely close in power.

    It's extremely efficient aerodynamics.

    I was wrong, Max’s pass on Hamilton at the start was well done.

    Horner said to Autocar that future owners could convert it into a road car if they wanted to..
