Fine Toto - I make more than both your drivers combined. Have a great season LOL!!

Keep me posted if Russell wins anything this year.

 

I'd refuse it too now if I was him lol

"I'm not here to make friends ..."

 

+1 Trillion. Thankfully we did see Oscar take on Norris and do well and win. The rest was a nice advert to DUMP Pirelli and stop the 'entertainment' by Tyre Management Formula!

 

Bino: We have to analyze and understand.

Vappeur: Ceci n'est pas un misjudgement.

 

Notwithstanding the DQs, two things stood out from the race itself:
1. Ferrari is still hard on its tires.
2. Ferrari is not working as a team.

Losing 4th was pretty much inevitable.
Max was able to conserve his tires while the Ferraris were chasing each other.

Chuck being underweight will make the Sky guys happier about LEC being faster than HAM despite the missing end plate.

("Oh, and HAM was dragging on the ground." )

 

What's Italian for "oops"?

 

Fred is being paid to fix it. Bring back Binotto lol - cannot help but laugh at all this today. Simply amazed. Not quite disappointed. That will set-in after dinner

 

DOH????

 

The same reason he wasn't considered for the seat this season.

 

The never ending optimism at the tiniest slight of a good result is what I find funny. Ever since the real dream team left (Brawn/Todt/Schumacher/Byrne) Ferrari has been a mess, just like they have been before the dream team entered.

The 400 or so million Lewis and his foundation have cost Ferrari are a waste. If Ferrari genuinely was serious they'd have made an open-ended bid on the Verstappen dream team: Max, Newey, Wheatley and Schmidtz. GP would follow no problem. With Vasseur at the helm that would be a team you can build on for a long term future. Let Max (+Charles) blow off steam in the 499P.

Winning Titles in F1 + Le Mans in the same season, imagine how many hats that sells.

 

Not exactly recent, but still very funny—especially in light of Lawson's recent 'performances'...

Gotta give it to Max, still the best on the grid.

 

Bas - Ferrari are really angry LOL - this is the priority after a 2x DQ LOL Please bring back Binotto lol

'A joke' - Ferrari angered by F1 radio of Hamilton-Leclerc swap
Ferrari has branded Formula 1's use of radio messages "a joke" and a deliberate attempt to stir up drama over how it swapped Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc in the Chinese GP

 

Thanks to Ferrari Liam finished 12th in the race... not exactly the worst position (Ok ok behind Hadjar still looks bad )

"We are checking...."

 

Priorities are at the perception then lol.

Well I can't really fault Ferrari for being pissed for FOM stirring the pot as if it's some sort of netflix episode, but they really have bigger issues at hand currently.

 

I am 30. I am not sure if I will be able to see Ferrari winning the championship before I have gray hair. I lost my tiniest belief when Vettel crashed in Germany.

Mclaren, the team that was mocked when Alonso and Button was suffering, and the team that really saw the bottom during Honda times, has been dominating the competition since last year. Now that's progress. That's how a legend shows why they are a legend. I love Ferrari. Absolutely. But I wonder what a midfield team can do with all the financial, social and political power of Scuderia. Now double DNF. Lessons blah blah. And what is even disheartening for me is that they may even go worse from this point on, and I would not be surprised.

This team really, definitely needs a total wake up call, since it has been sleeping for almost two decades.

 

Am I the only one who is flabbergasted at Ferrari’s repeated failure of not having their **** together year after year?

I mean, an energy drink company is more consistent and organized than Ferrari! All of their massive resources and personnel yet they can’t stop making simple mistakes like today?

What an embarrassing cluster ****.

 

Pick a race weekend, this is a normal issue with radio. It hardly matters and is easily mitigated lol.

 

Competence and organization within this team are only good enough for 2nd in the WCC.
That’s it..

 

just a fabulous job by both McLaren drivers and George Russell, and Kimi is certainly the real deal so far, just consistent and clearly learning.

appears Mercedes will be the car to beat at Monaco as it’s slow speed traction is incredible. After Japan we’ll get a better idea of the pecking order after McLaren, but so far it’s looking like Mercedes is the car, love it.

stop screwing up Ferrari! Ugh. Come on guys
