So, Ferrari suspects that the Baku PU failure is related to the PU failure in Spain.
Meaning, the safest approach is to change the whole PU and not just the ICE.
Just my 2 cents.
As far as I was aware he’s detonated both of his so far and is already running #3JPower wrote: ↑17 Jun 2022, 22:17FP1 might’ve been Sainz’s best practice session all year. Hoping he’s taken a step forward.
Leclerc seemed to have some heavy deg at the end of his long run. Might be something to watch. I imagine his PU1 is pretty tired at this point as well so the times looked a bit slow.
PU2 is gone, but PU1 is still ok. But because he didn't took new turbo that could be PU3 in the back of #16 car.Swed3120 wrote: ↑17 Jun 2022, 22:21As far as I was aware he’s detonated both of his so far and is already running #3JPower wrote: ↑17 Jun 2022, 22:17FP1 might’ve been Sainz’s best practice session all year.

I think they will, Charles just used a 2nd set of softs in FP2 instead of Mediums and Softs like everyone else. They'll start from the back.Sevach wrote: ↑17 Jun 2022, 23:18https://twitter.com/Vetteleclerc/status ... mPgr4IEayw
To be seen...
Unlikely Leclerc will bother fighting through to Q3 whilst starting from the back of the grid; no point risking the car etcJPower wrote: ↑18 Jun 2022, 02:02With a new engine, Charles will have more than enough pace to fight his way through the field. Might run into traffic if Vettel and Alonso are as quick as it seems though.
Long runs looked solid. I think RB might have a long run pace advantage but hard to tell given fuel and PU settings are unknown.
I think Ferrari can still qualify 1-2 though.

How good will the tow be at this circuit? He can still give Sainz a nice tow in Q3. Maybe get Sainz his maiden pole.organic wrote: ↑18 Jun 2022, 02:20Unlikely Leclerc will bother fighting through to Q3 whilst starting from the back of the grid; no point risking the car etcJPower wrote: ↑18 Jun 2022, 02:02With a new engine, Charles will have more than enough pace to fight his way through the field.

Long runs look very good. Could be Sainz's weekend
Same as every circuit, you can feel it only within 2s of the car in front and will likely give you 0.2s tops (In baku it was 0.4s max and that straight is 2x longer).codetower wrote: ↑18 Jun 2022, 03:18How good will the tow be at this circuit?
