5s penalty for Leclerc
Actually quite impressive to get 3 track limits violations in 3 turns (13,14 and 15 in final lap). :shock:

Are any remaining tracks good for SF23? Seems like we have lost our way again.

The rest of them look fine to me. Vegas looks good but depends on tyre warmup

It's not that we lost our way, it's just that the car has fundamental limitations (non-existent front downforce, high wind/yaw sensitivity) that manifest at any circuit that has long-radius corners.

It looks like the car could be decent in Abu Dhabi and Vegas. COTA looks 50/50, provided we do not lose too much time in S1. Mexico is kind of a wild-card, and Brazil is going to be painful.

With next year's car we'll see on a real fight but all these years sainz has always been better than leclerc, 2022 was hard because he wasn't used to the ground effect cars

We have to keep in mind Leclerc had a DNF while running 3rd at Barhain (and 2 others DNF, while Carlos only had one).
I would add overall even if he was too inconsistent with some horrendous weekend (Netherlands & Spain or Miami) Leclerc has been much faster throughout the season imo.

If we argue about Sainz not being used to ground effect cars (Leclerc isn't ? He's not Niki Lauda) we can also argue about the fact that this car isn't fitting Charles driving style, even if he's trying to adapt to it.

And I think he will be ahead of Sainz in the standings at the end of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

Fuel leak in Sainz's car. Bad news.

Well you can't bame the team, this could've happened to any driver for any team. They've found an unrepairable fuel leak. It is most likely vibrations from the constant kerb strikes.

It’s not always us :). RBR just got punished for doing exactly what Williams did last race. Fuel leaks and similar happen. It sucks of course but better now than a bbq few laps in.
