@balue Lmao….well that is official then!

@robbie I think the teams currently have more freedom to tune the tires to their cars than you are implying

On the contrary, they have no freedom to do that at all!! They all run at the mandatory minimum […]

Have you seen how Redbull treats its drivers?

It doesn’t sound like it is Ferrari who is wedded to the past….lol

And it wasn’t a steering column failure that killed Senna.

@balue No, there wasn’t divided opinion! the stewards checked the telemetry and could find no evidence of wrong doing. That is that.

It is all of the outside commentators and ‘fans’ that disagreed or had […]

@robbie Again, In Coulthard’s day the teams were free to set their own tyre pressures, no mandated minimums so the teams could tune the tyres to the chassis and get them into the operating window required. […]

The loads on the tyres are massively different now. The cars are 150 odd Kg heavier, generate massively more downforce and have to carry around the entire race worths of fuel around in them. Not to mention the […]

This! Budget wars are the new power play in F1. Wolff knows Ineos already have no more flexibility in their budget for this year so the game is to now pressure your oppositions budget by forcing redesigns on them.

@paulguitar Which is why it is sooo GOOOOD!

2018?…..Hmmm…..Another race where he was beaten on outright pace…..Interesting!

100% Agree….COTD Right there!

Oh God no! Please NO!

@kev-f1 Overtaking is not the be all and end all of F1.

@hazelsouthwell Mercedes have a frighteningly long car, the longest of the field Ok, lets not over exaggerate shall we. The difference between Mercedes’ ‘frighteningly long car’ and the shortest (Haas I believe) […]

@f1osaurus They seem to put in more fuel even when going for a quali run. AWS catches them out there though

I don’t think I have seen an accurate AWS prediction on car performance since it began. All […]

@paeschli in this case not so. The rules specifically outlaw the aeroelasticity that the wing has shown. The same could be said for the speculation around Ferrari’s engines in 2019 about legality and passing tests.

Errr..there is actual video footage of it flexing more than it ‘should do’ mid race when compared to other cars. How much evidence do you think they need?

It depends a little on whether racefans asked the question I suppose. It does seem somewhat leading towards a negative comment about Mazespin. The tweet doesn’t say who asked the question.

Lets not mention it will also be the 24th (?) anniversary of their last constructors championship!!

Where I think they’ll struggle with F1 is that a sprint race won’t work in the same way as T20. In T20, batters are less worried about getting out so they play a much more aggressive game and it really changes the […]
