[DGP123]

[Shrieker]

What even is happening

[Sofa King]

"Restrained jubilation" all week from Mercedes, just as I said

[tpe]

QA in the factory sucks big time.

And it looks like it's at least 3 teams fight (at least in Q1).

[101FlyingDutchman]

Yep. Classic underdog story

[AR3-GP]

Wow Mclaren really has fallen.

[Juzh]

So what wings are mercedes now running? barn door or medium load?

[fourmula1]

Feels like we still have no idea and need to wait until the last 2 minutes of quali

[101FlyingDutchman]

Wow Mclaren really has fallen.

Yep. Nearly a second down on the straight bits. It produces df at the expense of a crap ton of drag

[InsaneX_Badger]

So what wings are mercedes now running? barn door or medium load?

Exactly was my question. Think the bigger question is if they are running the same.

rb/mclaren were the two teams who didn't run on fresh sets (they were out on fresh softs when the red flag was called)

so there is hope for mclaren

[Juzh]

One other things with red bull drivers, I dont think they've done a single fast laptime in test or practice that was within track limits, especially verstappen. Now they have to stay on track they're essentially dropping laptime that was never gonna materialize.
