Qualifying for the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix did not provide many surprises as Max Verstappen was fastest once again. Ferrari's Charles Leclerc will join him on the front row of tomorrow's starting grid, making it the 6th consecutive time they lock out the front row among them.
the problems are mainly the cars, I think. On these tracks with no risk of rain they find a solution, but it could actually turn into a realy problem when leaving this part of the world.
If this is going to be a recurrent issue I'd rather have them check the drains and postpone the session for a few minutes than have a drain cover up a driver's bum.
How about, this might be a real weird thought I'm having here, check everything thoroughly IN ADVANCE of a race weekend?CaribouBread wrote: ↑07 Mar 2024, 19:54If this is going to be a recurrent issue I'd rather have them check the drains and postpone the session for a few minutes than have a drain cover up a driver's bum.
Ok imagine that they do a pre session inspection, alright? And now imagine this, they do an inspection after a session to see if anything has changed? Wow I'm living in willy wonka world! Barbieland!
his rear end issues have returned...setup faults? then to further compound a PU issue (though it looks like its been resolved in the pits)....
It's not like this stuff isn't properly sealed. As brought up above, the problem is that the cars have more and more downforce every year. A track which was fine for ages, now isn't anymore.
