    Of the remaining tracks this season, which do you think best suit Mercedes, and which best suit Ferrari?

    From what I’ve seen, Mercedes works well in the corners, particularly the long and fast ones, whereas Ferrari have been exceptional in a straight line.

    Spa – Ferrari in sectors 1 and 3, Mercedes in sector 2.
    Monza – Ferrari.
    Singapore – Red Bull seeing as they work best on the slow and twisty circuits.
    Sochi – Ferrari.
    Suzuka – Mercedes.
    Austin – Mercedes in sectors 1 and 3, Ferrari in sector 2.
    Mexico City – Ferrari.
    Brazil – Mercedes.
    Abu Dhabi – Ferrari.

    @brickles would you not say sector 1 and 3 in Brazil is Ferrari? They are mostly straights

    Looks like a tense end to the season :)

    @vettelfan17 – You might be right on that one. Plus Interlagos is quite high up above sea level which could arguably strengthen their straight-line speed.

    Who knows though, both teams might bring upgrades that completely flip the form book once the season returns at Spa.
