2022 Scuderia Ferrari F1 Team

[AR3-GP]

Sadly, I don't remember her name, but Ferrari had a lady strategist a few years ago that was doing a fantastic job, but they lost her to another team (AR?). It's very clear now how important she was to their race success.

They should get her back ASAP, IMHO.

Ruth Buscombe? She joined Haas at the end of 2015.

Maybe she was pushed out by Rueda...

Leclerc to start last according to Duchessa. Another worthless weekend,

How come last? a full new engine and ALL ancillaries?

If leclerc takes 4 engine components (or more) it's a botg start. From Duchessa's info it sounds like this is what they are planning for

2 engines related DNFs and 3 times starting from the back. Absolute disaster.

Wasnt there rumours he was going to take the upgrades reliability engine? Or is that just social media speculation?

I can't believe Perez will finish second in the WDC lmao.
I can't with this team. They are in another league.

Didn't Lec start last only a few races ago?

Didn't Lec start last only a few races ago?

His most recent engine change was Spa and that unit will have done 5 races by now, so it's about time for a new one

all Ferrari teams have introduced new ICEs every 3-5 races until now. I'm actually more surprised that only Leclerc takes one, and not Sainz as well. I guess it'll be his turn next week then.



(this only shows the introduction of the ICE # into the pool btw - teams obviously may still have used old engines later on)

This table just shows that 3 units per year is an insane request for such a long season. Even RB will use unit 6 surely, or risk DNF in final races.

It's only insane because the engines were frozen which means the teams can't really adapt. Toyota, Porsche,Audi developed 1000hp powertrains that could race for 24 hours so I think it's technically feasible without the freeze.

Or simply a way for FIA to "spice" the show... Just like with the useless tires.

Ham and Rus used number 2 for nine races. Most of all. And then only 1 and 2 races with third engine.
Strange.
I belive Merc could do it with 3.
Maybe that is the reason for lack of grunt this year?
