box to overtake... who?
reminds me a bit of ferrari
Box now box for hard
Fr
come on ferrari people, we're still in this
albono p2 woo hoo
nah im letting my hopes down till Melbourne Q3
also Spain might change the field drastically aswell
a fair strategy
too far away, fp2
eeeh, teams have time to put a fix to the lack of flexing
I doubt we'll see that big of a difference
it seems like such a long time ago when aston martin had a quick car
Btw Red Bull were accusing mclaren and Ferrari for having mini drs
that's what happens when you're off the pace all of a sudden
Even though mclaren is pretty slow on the straights
oh btw prj
suh
low engine maps
the 1.34s fernando was doing on the very start of the race sim was with no drs
there's hope
Alonso having an average finishing position of 6.5 despite being with backmarker/mid teams for 12 years is insane
Yeah I'm try to see any signs of mini drs and all i see is McLaren's drs with flowviz
that's pretty good right there
there's hope part 2
whole lot of hope today
it's genuinely gonna be an interesting year
I feel the midfield battle will be one to remember
and it's quite clear, development mid season will play a massivd part
ehhhh
If Ferrari is actually sandbagging or just testing every possible setup because they are confident they will be 1st, I will be very happy but Im setting my expectations for 4th
everyone's fairly close
Unpopular Opinion; I don't think Aston are finishing #5 this season
How have ferrari managed to do this to me again what a shit team
i think imma cheer for gasly this season, he was doing really well last season
I think it'll be super close between Alpine - Williams and Aston but I think alpine or Williams will be #5
lad what
P7 or lower for sure
Like if you don't show me any proof of mini drs I'm not believing anything you say
Agreed
today they're definitely testing set ups. Telemetry yesterday showed all time lost to mclaren was in the straights
I got shit by a few people who believe Adrian made the 2025 car
Like wtf?
I didn't even argue about it cause if they don't know it's
what's the top time right now guys?
No point.
we're literally on low engine maps and race sims
2 weeks, we will see
yeah
Just looks like you're being desperate because you don't have an advantage.
1:29.650
why the fuck is the one anthem I didnt want to hear playing
Albon
Mclaren too fast bro probs merc too
PASTRYYYYY
C4
It's js testing?
PASTRY
have you ever heard of sandbagging
ah thx
Yeah that tiny opening is reminiscent of the ferrari but the sheer girth of the nose reminds me of this cruise ship of a car
Mclaren are sandbagging too like
indeed
29:566 now
Its not just testing bruh every year i say the same stuff but it turns out bad
everyone is sandbagging
eventually people will figure out we all watch testing just to yap
even mclaren is sandbagging
im not coping for shit
I'm now even gonna argue with you sir ππ»
williams pace real?
What happened so far
don't take it for granted
came back
on the c4
how is the redbull doing on the straights?
oh ok who?
only place where they're decent
came back here
MX
yeah we'll have to wait and see until melbourne
*Max
ah ok thx
oh i didn't mean that
Hope i am wrong but its been the same since 2020
Nww
ππ»
by the way, oscar third
Ferrari fans every year believing it's going to be their year "it's just testing" until the race weekend hits
albons lap was on the c4
and full push
reminder: kick sauber set the third fastest testing time of 2024
EXACTLY LOL
Some of y'all take testing very seriously
π
PIASTRI 3RD
When did that happen?
happens every year dw
verstappen first
confirmed champion
we should start getting some quali sims soon
It's the first time he's done a fast lap lmao
Glory Runs soon
kimi raikkonen sets fastest lap day one 2020
I didn't even notice it
exactly
and then, prost 2001 
Ferrari and Williams only teams that got softs
Idk why they didn't let Carlos do a run on the softs, I thought it was to get him up to speed
Wilissian
Ferrari should bolt on a brand new pair of softs on Lewis's car soon
Spin
Red Bull haven't actually done any long runs except Liam's 2 stints on day 1
SPIN!

Ocon

10s to ocon
Sbinala
sbinlla
10 year prison sentence for ocon
a bit too early to be doing donuts
The drivers?
OH
Yeah it's up to the team to decide ig idk
I mean the whole car must get fitted with new parts
I assume engine components get yeeted while the chassis can be kept as a spare
Max and piastri out with new tyres
REPLA Y is back ππ
Mfs forgot to save the changes lmao
mazepin has been spotted at alpine
NO
and mercedes?
Do not let that egg near our sport ever again
NAHHHHHH
Verstappen spin
max spin
Red Bull are fucked

a max spin is a very clear sign he's just pushing hard
Verstappen doing donuts already?? jk

McLaren gonna run away with the championship
I wouldn't take it as an alarming sign
He's testing his championship winning donuts
spinning in testing is fine
yeah
we won't let that happen (as if)
just a spin
come on, we have won 16 championships
forza coperari
forza coperariποΈββοΈ
lol Ferrari seems to be 4th car rn
dawg my discord crashed out
i really don't care about the constructors' (i want mclaren to win constructors)
Spinalla
you spin my head right round right round like a record baby right round right round
When was the last ferrari championship
oh where did u see that
2008
they're packing up, shown on the sky f1 italy broadcast
ok car is cooked
oh. so ferrari is done with testing
they didn't seem interested in fast laps today
be optimistic
whyd they pack up
and been championless for 17
They're putting the fries in the bag
not that bad
ahhhh i wish the race were here sooner
its better to be doomer to then get good surprises rather than be optimistic and get ur dreams crushed
can't wait for melbourne
test
an early dip could also mean they've checked what they wanted to check
it's that
you don't dip otherwise
not like you can do long runs in 20 minutes
bro the williams is kinda looking promising...
Max 5th WDC?
woopie
midfield yea
Yeah they already did their plans
m5x
my midfield kings
yeah ofc, but much better than last year's i think.
Holy sh if he gets 5th then just 2 more md bros a 7x
can u say merc is the wildcard
I don't but ferrari gives the feeling of being the heaviest out of all 10 after Haas
mercedes could surprise both ways
they're looking good however
surprised carlos is quicker than max
they look heavy
Ferrari and red bull don't look very promising, haven't seen much of mclaren but they're doing other kinds of work
no thatβs williams
nah, the car has been pretty nimble when on the right set up
Mercedes look surprisingly good
true
I didnt watch today just looking at the live timing is there any reason for Ham hving a better time than Leclerc
yuki ahead of leclerc π
Leclerc focused on balance and set ups
lewis tried a few fast laps earlier in the session
lec stopped running early on to go eat ice cream and meet his therapist cuz ferrari back
then also focused on set ups
I see
i agree tbh
they were fairly matched in yesterday's long runs
can hulkenberg see or no
No he's driving around the track blind
hulkenberg 1:36:514
when
albon on out lap
nico huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuulkenberg
That's not worse than driving a sauber
ocon on out lap
π
tsunoda on out lap
today is day 3 right
yeah
yea
sf1000 instead of f2005
nothing is worse than that
just ferrari things
79 laps for Oscar that's good
Audi isn't looking great at all for next year
127 laps for albon dam
driving a life l190? 6 minutes off the pace in imola 
nice call from sainz
bortoleto w that job security bc everyone will blame the car
No shit the team they're going to take over is SAUBER
cant wait for the actual race π
Audi has had control since like mid last year
He's got a two year contract, and Sauber isn't really known for booting underperforming drivers. He's safe
Has Hamilton gone out yet?
he looks good
no
Then they're doing a shit job so far, they better have a lot of money if they want to fix this mess
someone here said that ferrari's done for the day
Points: 204
Points: 101
Points: 51
Points: 33
Points: 24
Points: 13
Points: 8
Points: 6
Points: 4
Points: 1
Points: 218
the smart move is to invest that money on 2026
look who's second
teams that sucked last year will just have to deal with it
let's go oscar!!!
pastry kinda fcked up the last turn

+0.374
I think Audi needs to bolster their technical team. James Key is just not the right guy to have.
rushel might cook
last lap for oscar 1:29.940
russel goes 1st
58.3 brake balance change
delayed for me
Gowan george
1:29.545
RUSSEL
how is mclarenβs car looking chat
Rapid
Merc faster than rb confirmed
whatβs up with the mercedes engine π
They haven't shown much today but it's obvious they're the favorites (probably)
?????
it's still testing
why would it be confirmed π
LMAO SAINZ STILL HE THR FASTEST OVERALL IN A WILLIAMS
that tab should have said, don't forget to touch grass xd
They haven't gone for fast laps, focusing on on race pace and consistency
i did. i play football every day for like 3 hours? one at school, 2 at home.
What were you and chatgpt talking about?
sainz domination could bore fans
Alonso confirmed to win 3rd world championship this year π
how has albon done today? Haven't really watched anything
I don't believe for a second that Williams will mix with the top 4. I do think they will be 5th or very close to it though. Looks more promising than Aston, at least
williams pole in melbourne?? (i wish)
Russel set the fastest lap
in testing.
heβs 3rd fastest lol
π
Bro it was a joke lmao
i will be going outside for the first time in 3 days, so kudos to you for being this energetic 
can't be a joke if it's not funny
sainz pole position or podium possibly for australia
Ok buddy stop crying
as a sainz fan i wish but thats too far lmao
Thatβs a bit delusional ngl
i wantto be genuinely interesting
russell on outlap
i guess
lmao nice, loses an argument and pulls out the "stop crying" card
Man mclaren has been edging us with those fast laps, and Oscar's iconic last corner fuck up
my wild prediction for the '25 season is that carlos will be in q3 for 22/24 races
I love williams but, nah π
ok jesus
Continue to program
2 mins left π
All man is doing is complaining to other peoples comments xddd instamad

uh huh
for real LMAO
please learn the definition of "complain"
one more minute to go
one min left π
- this is a public server, i have the right of replying to any message i want as long as i don't break any rules
Nah i am a freebird with no will to learn today. its time to touch grass in 1 minute and 5 seconds
chill out neckbeard nobody is attacking u
the vc π
practice starts?
did i say that
man this community fell off bad
Bro lives for the argument
Respect π«‘
times up πππ
RIP testing π«‘
russel impressive as usual i hope he fulfills his potential
fp1 π₯
Thatβs another 15 days away π
im not even arguing
alright fellas, see you in 2 weeks
GG guys for hanging on. Now time to wait till the real season start
Carlos Sainz YOU π«΅ are the 2025 F1 Driver's Champion
Why does the Williams lowkey have pace π
It's Joever, see you fellas in 'Straya
I can't see shit bruh
i really want us to be good
1st
it's blurry yes
You literally just said βlosing an argument, and pulls out the βstop crying card
fr

Ferrari 4th car π
took this in a hurry
well that's kinda my mistake tbf
cuz that wasn't an argument
but anyway
are we doing practice starts?
Fair
ok i guess we are
hungary...
has to be one of the weirdest things in f1
history
What is the top 3 for today?
ok 3 cars out
Russell verstappen albon
Alr
Time for me to get delusional
In conclusion: gg red bull
damn yesterday's time remains faster
really surprising that noone pushed a lot today
Pretty sure everyone got their qualifying runs yesterday
Does anyone know when the new opening titles come out?
Gg
I want them now π‘
zak brown was in qatar this morning
How you know
wec
prost 2001.
Williams world domination
prost 2001.
williams donβt even have good long run pace
this is just an overreaction of seeing a team that focused on quali sim
Max still winning
And it's also an average team at the moment
Guys I think sauber is slow this year
or was it still average
Top 3 kinda behind Ferrari
After that Miami upgrade they started being serious challengers
yeah
let's hope it's an interesting season
Or Miami race
made a well-balanced car the best car
They got confidence after norris win
π€
Active aero in whole new different level π
no they werenβt lol
Anyone know why max flipped his finger? π π
Someone was filming his car
CHUCK π
Nah were back, not sure if were 1st, 2nd or 3rd.. I reckon Mercs are 2nd but were back
that race stint from russell was mighty
Matching norris pound for pound in a slower presumed car.
Mclaren top speed is so fucking ominous
You can tell that engine was so turned down
That should be a sticker
It's zhouver until you get zoints
2nd? π³π
Day 2 it was turned up all the way
Was it ? We wouldnβt know
Some say mcl was like a second faster per lap compared to the rest
But nothings a fact till we get to Melbourne
Itβs testing, so really it means nothing
Yesterday was when lando got the fastest lap right?
Or was that on day 1
Anyway, mclaren weren't even using 8th gear (not sure about today i haven't checked) but it's clear they were atleast trying to sandbag
The only time testing matters is when ferarri or McLaren are fast
Otherwise itβs just testing
can someone explain the last tiktok about lando on formula1 account?
what's happening with the tyre
lmfao they are going to cook so hard
they were ripping those lap times going 10kph slower
Itβs whatever the opposite of sandbagging is
but gotta take the small wins when they come
Yesterday yes day2
yeah regardless of how testing differs to racing, topping the testing days is a great step for williams π
How do you think sainz will do this season?
Still canβt believe that they got sainz
Watch Williams just win every race this season just like Red Bull did in 2023



actually they didnt win in singapore π€βοΈ
Did Mclaren chanage something with the car? Testing 3 car's air intake opening looks different than I remember
Wtf I heard there was a bus on track???
mm im gonna hope that if the car is in compliance, heβll do pretty well with an occasional off weekend
what do u think
And then I wake up.
His ass was not using 8th gear and i didn't notice until someone mentioned it
Aston Martin 9th best team
π
Aston Martin has the best factory in the sport and this is the shitbox they make?
Man i can't wait for Adrian newey because this shit is so baffling to me
is he a miracle worker
I mean he did make the Red Bulls that won championships back then and recently,
Also helped mclaren win some championships back then (I think)
and there was also a 7 year gap between those two title runs
He also helped Williams
Because Red Bull decided to use a shitty Renault engine
the stuff back in the 90s, yeah I won't doubt he did a lot back then because teams were much smaller and your role had a lot more responsibility
hey those shitty renault engines got them 4 world championships
Yeah but they weren't working anymore
yeah it kinda went off a cliff
And without a good engine Adrian can't do his shit
He did make great cars, but it's about the combination of a decent engine and a great car
Newey left Red Bull because he didn't feel like he had enough control, Lawrence saw that and decided to give him a LOT of control, we are yet to see how that's going to go
And that's also the reason why Adrian didn't go to Ferrari
Ferrari is a prideful team, their logic is that no one is bigger than Ferrari
Ferrari was not going to give Adrian the amount of control he wanted
Lawrence has a lot of money and is willing to hire the best of the best (please fire lance) so he gave adrian everything he wanted
Basically His own team, ownership situation is going to be very interesting with Adrian newey entering the scene
And Lawrence might have opened the formula one Pandora box by doing that, but like i said, that's yet to be seen, right now Aston might have another shitbox on their hands
No worries about Aston ..shitbox is a shitbox even theres Adrian on team
He hasn't started working yet
He starts in March
Yup doesnt matter ...it remains a shitbox untill next season
Most people put it as 5th-6th car
still a huge improvement
i wld say 5th sounds about right
Yes
Haas 9-10th fastest
Haas definitely sandbagging, Komatsu doesnβt try to put himself onto the level of the other teams, heβs done his own thing last year and will do it again this year
Williams the most improved team?
Yes
Also he just simply wants to be closer to family since the HQ is like near his family
sainz might just have chosen the correct team
Well the choices were Sauber/Audi who have been honest about being back markers until 2028, Alpine who implode twice a year minimum or Williams who finished 7th in 2023 with one driver
And could have done better last year if Albon/Sargeant didnβt send it everytime they got into the car at the start of the year
Albon scored most of their points tho, and it wasnβt exactly a points capable car every race
Williams top 5 constructors this year? Iβm going to lose my mind bro sainz will cook
They ruined themselves by crashing and ruining their development budget
Williams probably feel Faster in Testing
I just hope they get a Chance for a Podium
Why would Alonso improve Alpine's performance but not Aston Martin's?!
I dont know what Alonso has to do with the comment i made about Aston performance with Adrian in this year .
Fact is that the car is not good , even theres a couple Adrians working with it
Maybe next year things are different
Who else with me has Haas delulu syndrome
Thinking haas will have a great year
And alpine will have a shit year
Ferrari not looking good at day 3
A little late huh ππ
Remember El Plan? And how it was a factor in Alpine beating McLaren in 2022?
Now, why would a French team use "El" in the nickname?
Almost like Alonso was a big help in their technical surge
So I guess he is just biased to Alpine because if he actually had an Aston equivalent to El Plan they would be at the front by now
So who's to say Newey won't sleep on the technical side of things?
At this point Aston's gonna withdraw by the end of the decade. At least Caddy is coming
Heard this in the Morning
isnt el π ±οΈlan a meme
And another season of
E L P
I N
RELE
SE ME
i think haas is cooked
Nah
They work differently
They're the second team with most laps
Let Komatsu cook
Nah haas has cooked
Serious question, what is the most promising driver from preseason testing
williams wcc confirmed
Sauber is cooked
OMG YES
Like it was atleast there
Tell me something new
Has anyone here heard of formula H2O?

Man i love when F1 fans are like "MINI DRS MINI DRS BAN AND ARREST THEM IMMEDIATELY" and then use this video of nothing as evidence https://fixupx.com/robertofunoat/status/1895858652973842811?t=QtI5CkRHyFj-RtWHSjpD1w&s=19
Per quanto riguarda i sospetti di βMini DRSβ sulla McL39, ho estratto questa breve inquadratura dellβala posteriore in particolare alla estremitΓ . Onestamente non sono in grado di esprimermi con la medesima certezza ostentata da Pierre Wacheβ #F1 #McLaren #McL39 #RearWing
And if you ask, the part where the arrow is pointing at is not physically moving or changing
F1 is back everybody
Hoping I get F1 TV Pro for my bday this month
Happy early birthday
Thanks! It's 29 days away but it's a 30/30 bday lol 
I might just buy myself the replay plan for the year at 30$ if not
I'm not doing fantasy this year.
But anyways testing has looked cool
Was that sainz I saw on the results at #1 for a session the other day? 
Yeah
Looks like Williams improved, but they're obviously not going to fight for podiums or wins
They'll fight for that 5th place though, best of the rest
Followup
Do they know what they're doing?
Every photo I've seen of the car in testing looks different 
It's like when Adrian Newey left they just said "Fuck it we can do allllll the things now!"
No
They had some problems actually
They brought a new floor and it didn't work
If anything mclaren are the ones sandbagging, even though they weren't able to hide much, what we saw from them was pretty spooky
I didn't get to watch so feel free to share the details if you want
2 Weeks Left, Team!
Bro is scared for his life
Let's just get ready for his Home Race next 2 Weeks
Itβs been one day without f1 and Iβm losing it to the point that Iβve signed lance stroll to redbull and sold max verstappen AND I have signed Logan sergeant to redbull
Iβve lost the plot
Bro, you're going for the impossible difficulty
Switched from easy to impossible
Iβve lost the plot
Winning WDC (destructors) championships with an unstable duo and unstable car
π₯
And both have crashed into each other ππ
Seeing the number 44 on a Ferrari feels wrong
I guess I've played too much F1 Manager that it looks natural for me.
since when did we have a pre-season testing channel
how long have you been living under a rock
welp, been into F1 just this year.
since like, last week.
this is the chat that changes during different grand prix
so in two weeks, this chat will be named the aus gp grand prix
idk what exact names we use for the channels
Me after sometimes yes but like it's undeniable: I say I am like when the now and
β€οΈ 5 (5 emoji no were. I search)
Max
australia-gp is the next channel name
Oh
Okay thanks for letting me know.
Does anyone think that mc and Ferrari are still using a mini DRS thing??
I saw a few clips and it seemed like the wings are still a bit flexible
Well, they're carbon fiber parts, they will flex even a little bit no matter what happens. The anti-flex rules were in place to prevent excessive flexing (which promotes air flow)
And from what i know, the weight regs make it hard to reach the limit so they kinda had to make a lot of parts as thin as possible, which may make the carbon fiber flex easier (Like we saw with haas' wrecked engine cover, the carbon fiber was paper thin)
@vague light redbull did sandbag, according to a website i saw, they have the full throttle datas, it showed that redbull wasnt showing their cornering abilities.
sorry wrong pin
man red hill is cooked
@snow swan
red bull
Did i mentioned that as we get ahead of Australian Grand Prix that i already create a Banner Last Month ago in #creative
Itβs the GP channel renamed
i played too much f1 carrer mode, seems pretty normal to me.
oh
Finally, He start his First Day

Thanks! I'm just ready for the cars to go fast lmao
And so the domination begins
Look at Aston brining a dominator to Melbourne
Four years from now they'll have a rocket ship
Both lonso and lance will be gone
Max and lewis battle it out at aston
Cinema of the absolute kind
Dawg, they brought a new floor that didn't work
And if Red Bull are hiding then mclaren were hiding a lot more, even if they couldn't hide everything
Ferrari were too, and Mercedes were really stable
But it's pretty clear which team is the one to beat
No teams are sandbagging. What they may do is try different engine maps and such
But not to hide their performance
why would they drop their engine modes then
If they won't use those during the races
To test performance compared to simulator for example
Yes, but if they want less variance from the driver, they can change the engine mode so each lap is more consistent
Please tell me that this is a one-off. Hate the FOX cartoon bullsh*t.
Anyone seen this?
omfg can the F1 site update with the new driver images
Except haas and maybe Aston Martin (I'm still confused about Aston, data says they suck but the team and Fernando are saying the opposite)
there was limited long run data in terms of Aston, I don't think they'll be as bad as it might appear, but they're not in as good a spot as they really should be
Decent is enough for them, their focus is not on this year anyway
oh yeah for sure, newey will probably be almost exclusively focusing on next year
You could kinda say HAAS was since they never did proper qualifying simulation for whatever reason.
Tjenare Felix
But they didn't do that to hide their performance, which is what sandbagging is.
frrr
Well they kinda did since they never showed their quali pace.
Well they never showed anything actually
Komatsu's way of working is really interesting
No one knows apart from HAAS themselves where they are in qualifying pace right now.
So? Doesn't mean they're sandbagging
They looked bad in testing but itβs testing so π€·π»ββοΈ I think theyβll be about the same as last year
alright cool
They didn't look bad, they just did do anything that raises eyebrows
They did this last year
The only thing that looked bad was when the car decided to strip itself naked
Oh god what's happening here
yeah true
10 more days for FP1
Yay
2-3 days till new driver portarit
How do you know?
From what I think the new driver portrait will usually release about a week before the new season start
Ah
Then why did they do it? (I genuinely donβt know what advantage there is to not doing a proper quali sim like the others)
They likely just felt that race runs was better for their tests and so prioritised it
The more I look at Stroll, the more I see the man really is dejected from Formula 1. The guy missed the last day of practice; he isn't in with the other drivers in the garage, he isn't trying to amount to anything in 2024, and now his 2025 helmet. We might see Stroll crash in 2025 when the car continues to go to the back of the pack.
i feelnbad forh him
Whatβs wrong with his helmet?
Lazy design, cut copy over and over
Heβs never been forced to fight for wins, he had an illegal F3 car then was bought a seat into F1 before super license points were bought in
Aston will never compete for a WCC trophy with him in the team
It shows his character. It is plain boring and shows us lance is the type of guy who doesnβt think how he is perceived by the fan base.
i am inlove with boreletto helmet
Senna copy paste
And Sainz
Honestly all cool except I donβt like the colors on Alonsoβs
And strolls is hella boring
Boreletto
not really with the white n black stripes
but yeah can def see the resemblance
because of him no junior drivers can really show their true powers
Wdym, Fernando is right there
He's the newest rookie
It was actually discuss back 2023 Monaco Grand Prix when Ferrari talks around a possible transfer of Lewis before the February 2024 Announcement https://x.com/autosport/status/1896839755859415476?t=WLQQEDu0V_j_gkwLWkErhQ&s=19
This could explains why Charles during the Press Conference back 2 Years ago calls Lewis in hesitation π
...
true
i see ppl writing off max from wdc
from some sims apparently red bulls race run are +.15 and merc and ferrari were +4
to mclaren
if thats the case i can bet on max
bro can go on a rampage
he has nothing to lose too its not like hes coming to the season having the strongest car
like we've seen him do enough to win in 3rd fastest car
idk im coping and venting
π
and unlike other teams like merc and williams red bull will look for atleast trying for wdc
coz 2026 is unknown to them
Tfym +4
How can a team be 4 seconds off pace π
i mean i saw somewhere
nah ferrari race pace didnt look that good in race sims charles was constantly +.340 on avg
to norris
they werew both doing race sims at the same time
McLaren
Merc/ferrari
ferrari/merc
redbull
williams
alpine/haas
haas/alpine
RB
aston
sauber
Thatβs how my guess goes
But haas is a curveball here
We donβt know their true pace
So I suppose wait till aus
hmm idk red bull havent been running too much but acc to some sims race pace is better
than ferrari and merc
idk it was pretty cold in bahrain which is good for merc
i doubt australia will be cold
max posting in something other than red bull kit
lets gooo lmaooo
Thatβs why itβs a Ferrari/merc combo
Due to the cold factor
Hmm idk but max con still fight for a championship
He did it last year with on avg the 3rd fastest after Miami
Dude β¦
After Miami ? No way lol
They were on par probably until Hungary
I mean after Miami he did score the most points
After that on ciruit specific tracks McLaren were absolute fastest
But redbull were in no way third in the middle of the season
but that was the turning point red bull were not the clear dominant Ferrari merc and McLaren caught up
Merc def no. Ferrari were still off from redbull
there were on pace in British gp they were the only reason max was second was cause of the tyre blunder by McLaren
Cold tracks which caused merc to go up
Hmm there was an analysis bro after Miami red bull fluctuated from 2nd to 3rd to sometimes 4th
Overall redbull was not the shitbag people make it out to be
Source ?
only in Brazil and Qatar they were fast
The race
they are on track reporters
It was released long back so I canβt go search for it now
lol McLaren on pace had the fastest car but max capitalised so much on their mistake
Well they only had PΓ©rez to analyse from
π
And Ferrari did look pretty good anyway
Itβs supposed to be nehungary isnβt it
Yea
My point is max can win ik ur a norris fan so its no point itβs just copium
For me
π
I mean itβs not that max canβt win
Itβs just saying redbull was plainly the 3rd fastest car is what I didnβt like
People act like βoH hE wOn In A sHiTbOxβ
I said on avg it wasnβt the clear fastest
mclaren had the bes car on pace the same times as red bull
But they didnβt win when it was
And itβs not like Norris should have won but atleast could have dragged it to last race didnβt matter if max won
on many races like Singapore and zandvoort max came 2nd to minimise the damage
Of course I donβt expect max to be 1st in the wdc board it will probably be mixed
throughout the season
The thing is
The first year you fight in the front
And you expect to be fighting for the wdc
Itβs gonna take a while to adjust
Letβs see this year
How lando has improved or not
Yea but still it was not really fighting for wdc
I wouldnβt call it a championship fight when Norris wasnβt even below 50 to max
gap
it shouldβve been
but it didnβt
He def would but max at this point knows how to fight and he has nothing to lose coz the expectations arenβt there
I mean most of the sky sports pundit predicted Charles or Norris
Or George
no one mentioned max in the fight
Thatβs what ticked me off
Cuz so far , red bull seems lik they need to improve the car
Yea but they said theyβve taken a step ahead compared to last year
They said the car is a bit more stable
But no improvements has been msde
Like fundamental issues are gone
Yoo yβall already have a very good car lemme have some copium
ππ
π
Enjoy lol
Fuck no
Letβs see Charles get demolished
Norris wins the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix ! And along with that wins the world driverβs championship
Alr thereβs a chance Lewis beats Charles but it wonβt be demolition
Nahhhh
Charles will get Lewis
Charles deserves it more if u ask me current on form 1)max 2)Charles 3) George 4) Norris
Iβm a George hater but I think George can be better
Fuck no
No way is George better
As a lando fan my guts say lando
My pinkie toe says lando will win
Oscar is good as well
Yo
Yes obviously
Heya
I mean he is doing better and better
Where do I get the roles for your profile ?

Norris lost pole at turn 1 to Charles and Charles is this year wdc!!!!! WOOOO LETS GOOO DELUSION ON THE HIGH
No more bottles
Why thank you @proven leaf
Tis fine !
We say Abu Dhabi
And Qatar
apparently ferrari are blocking an employee from leaving
from joining ferrari
apparently hes supposed to start at aston as chief technical officeer
and aston wanted him at 25 jan
but ferrari are like no
What are they scared of
The contract has to be honoured. Nothing about being "scared"
They used images of the cars with flowviz on

You can't make this up
Atleast it's better than last year where they completely forgot about updating some of the images with the new cars
You know, I'm seeing a lot of talk about the mini drs popping up again
But I'm barely seeing any evidence
guys is that me only who thinks that kimi antonelli is a bit too overated?
merc didnt handled a rookie before so maybe if he is not up to the mark he could be replaced by bottass potentially?
No but I do think Lawson and Doohan are.
nothing against kimi but i just want to see bottas drive for merc again
especially since i only started watching f1 after he had left
he has a good track record, let's see him race before judging too harshly
who knows if he'd even get replaced by bottas
there is no way he'd be replaced
even if he crashes every weekend, Toto believes in him too much
but I too wanna see Valtteri race once
kimi glazer doesn't want to see valtteri
he only wants to see kimi
he wants grid full of kimis
20 Kimis
...
i deadass wanna see Valtteri return
okay
19 Kimis
1 Valtteri
i should mention this message is sponsored by Dreamcastβ’οΈ
I actually have nothing against Bottas back in the Mercedes but for good reasons I don't want it to happen.
Because it would mean something happens to either George or Kimi.
yes, its too early to make guess lets see how he performs.
lol
same, this sesason i wanna see him drive for merc for atleast 1 weekend.
No it doesnβt
8 Days Left until the Season Opener!
π
Even Leclerc is now global partner with Chivas Regal
Now f1 will give out a new rule don't drink and drive
polish vodka
that definitely means Robert Kubica comeback in 2026
Global Ambassador for Clothing Brand like UNIQLO, Levi's is much Better sometimes
inb4 we get an official whisky partner in Glenmorangie too
Poverty
irony.
nice powerpoint slide
Apologies for image spam, but how the fuck have we got the situation where grand prix promoters are posting the driver photos when Formula 1 have been so lazy with their site they haven't even posted them yet
lol
Lol, f1 is slacking
fr though
