What is the deal with the FIA saying they will clamp down on dominance, if Redbull is so much faster will they start to be legalised back into the pack?

Did Leclerc slide off because he climbed the kerb and caused a sudden loss suction from the floor?
Always find the gap then use it.

No seems caught out by the crosswind. Then overcorrected

No that looked like classic outside wheel on some slick curbing / over the curbing / power on oversteer.

Remember the new tires have stiffer sidewalls and the new cars are set up super stiff as well. Not much compliance over the curbs which is also where the now banned inerters help a lot.

Why is the classification bar on the left is not shown for minutes? Graphics need tons of updates.

How do they clamp down on it though?

Yuki power steering failure?

I can’t imagine what these cars would be like to turn at speed / making down force without power steering.

Anyone know if Leclerc was on new or used tyres on his spin lap? 4 tenths down in the first sector on that lap, suggests redbull has this one sewn up
used tyres from FP2, yeah. Ferrari hasn't used new tyres yet today (but one more set than normal yesterday)

The original comment also needs removing too as its just an attempt to blatantly troll and get reactions like it did.
Why?
Because it was also a stupid comment. This isn’t Reddit.
Was it that stupid? Hamilton seems to be in the mix just fine.

Yes it was. I’d say the same if the names were reversed as well.

If this were my forum, I would ban any thread not related to tech. It would be like ten people, but hell with it.
