It took me a few days to process the result from Sunday... I'm not going to comment on it.

I think the next few races coming-up however are going to favour Red Bull quite a fair bit. Baku with its long straights should suit them very well, though Ferrari might pull a bit of time back in S2... Canada is a hard one to read, as I think it could be a balance there, though again a slight favour to Red Bull for the straights alone. Silverstone I think could be a potential Ferrari place, especially in S1 and the final part of S3, but let us see how development goes.

The harshest reality is that the last 2 races Ferrari could've/should've won and slammed dunked... and they haven't. I still feel Red Bull just continuing to stretch it's legs now and Mercedes is closing in fast...

I don't think anyone posted this before, if yes, please accept my apologies.
All in all, it looks like Ferrari in Monaco acted in panic (we already new that, but then again they took some risks that probably should not take.
The insight is nice but I still think they were reckless.

Gradually Ferrari will run out of favorable tracks to pull back on the point difference. This is the make of the championship which is super competetive today, you lose out on capitalizing on your strength and there is no way to claw back. Never saw Ferrari come back to take the lead back in 2017 or 2018. Once they lost the lead they were never even there to challenge the Merc.
However there may be some more suprises on the positive side for Ferrari if there RBR somehow manages to lose on their favorable tracks like Baku and Canada.RBR is such a professional team and they showed immense character the way they fought tooth and nail with Merc in 2021.
People say its too early to conclude the season but historical references do show us that if a team loses momentum, there is no way to get out of unforced errors/strategical errors even when you have the fastest car.
Team Ferrari has to re-group, there is nothing to do from past event. Give 100% for the remaining season and push for as much to put RBR under pressure so that they make unforced errors and the lost points can be definately regained.
The team really needs someone like Pep/Klopp, change the culture to be able to fight back and not give up.

They don't need no one at the top. They have Mattia who is good enough to keep that mentality. Look where they were in 2020, and where they are today.

They will fight back and won't give up. The question is, will the deveolpment race be good enough, and will they be able to extract maximum from deveolpment within budget cap limit.

Binotto has constantly talked about it being a young team and it's showing, they're looking so amateurish compared to Red Bull, if it's not driver errors it's team errors and technical issues. Rueda has been with Ferrari for years he shouldn't get the "young team" excuse to cover him. I just feel so bad for Charles.

As for what tracks favour who it will all depend on Ferrari's new low downforce wing and how effective the DRS is on it because that's Red Bull's strength. If the wing is good I see no reason why the Ferrari shouldn't be competitive in Baku (if Red Bull aren't bringing updates).

And they are correct as people were saying the same things about Mercedes at this point last year.

They were 37 points behind in the constructors'. Lewis was 12 points behind Max in 2nd. Bottas had a worse start than Sainz is having now and was in 5th behind Checo in 3rd and an upstart Lando(2022 is George).

Hamilton had his own mistake at Baku and a few questionable strat calls from the pit wall to deal with. Very similar start to Leclerc this season.

Its a long season. I see no reason to panic like many are doing now. Binotto has shown that he and the team can respond quickly to challenges and I expect them to do the same going forward. The car is great, and both drivers are driven to win.

I was just thinking about where Carlos (and Ferrari) would be without his two avoidable DNF.
86 pts + [all things equal] (15 [with the SC he would certainly have passed Perez in Australia] + 12 [don't think he would have been able to overtake Perez + Charles mistake]) = 110 pts. Equal in points with Perez.
In the WCC : 199 pts + 37 for Ferrari = 236 pts. For RB : 235 - 3 [Perez 3rd and not 2nd in Melbourne] = 232. Ferrari ahead in the WCC.

Would be a totally different scenario ! #-o

One crash between Charles and Max and they are back at a 4 driver battle for WDC.

TBH this season Ralf opinion is way off. But his point of winning and losing together stands. What were Charles mistakes? Imola is only thing i can recall really. Else was perfect to the tee. Lock up here and there is given when u chasing/or being chased by mad Max. Also Scuderia strategy's were quite good this season. Maybe couple bad pitstops. Heck even that area is on average one of best in F1 (no 2 on overall distribution off all pitstops).

Interesting article about Sainz:

Carlos Sainz wrote:You can see from the cameras and everywhere that I’m not there yet with the car compared to last year, that I’m not driving naturally; the car is a bit too pointy for my liking but that’s it, that’s the way it goes. You can either adapt yourself or bring your car a bit more to your liking. Anyway, these two things, they take time, and they take knowledge and experience. It takes mistakes and trial and error, and this is what I’m in the process [of doing] now and what I’m going to try and correct as soon as possible
Mattia Binotto wrote:Carlos is struggling, but he will get there very soon I’m sure. I am sure he will get there at some stage because that’s the attitude of Carlos – studying the data, trying different driving styles, adapting himself. He will maybe take a bit of time, but he will get there.

I don't think that there are issues. Certainly, he needs to adapt by seeing that he has done a couple of mistakes, which are important. But nevertheless, I think that he is improving himself, he is going faster and faster

It’s maybe the first time in his career that he's got a car which is fast enough to compete for the best positions, and he simply need to get used to that – but he will do it very quickly, because I know how smart and how capable he is to manage the pressure
Sainz about Lecrerc:
Carlos Sainz wrote:He’s a great guy, we have a lot of mutual respect, which helps our working relationship. He’s doing a great job adapting to the new car, the new regs, he’s extracting everything out of this Ferrari that I’m trying to do also, and in certain ways copy. I’m having fun with him, we get on well – and we work in the same direction, which is important.

He’s driving at a very high level, he’s putting together super-impressive lap times, an impressive way of driving and I can only admire and try and in some ways copy, and in others try and put it a bit more in my liking to be faster. Sometimes it goes like this and as a driver you just need to go through a process and challenge yourself.
