2024 Mclaren Formula 1 Team

Oh the same old crap!!!
I'm tired seeing this kind of articles!!!

It’s only been an issue since Lando joined the team, no big deal right? Right?

F1.com puts us in a tight fight for second.

For what that's worth

I'm pretty sure their analysis is "take results from last race and sprinkle some insights from this race". This time we looked much worse in FP1 and FP2 yet they put us much closer than in Bahrain (where we had good results/pace in FP1/FP2).

Not the way we want to beat Ferrari...hope Carlos to get well soon:

"Big news from Ferrari as Carlos Sainz has been diagnosed with appendicitis and requires surgery.
Ollie Bearman will replace him for the rest of the weekend in Jeddah, starting with FP3 today #F1 #SaudiArabianGP"

Anyone got any details on this floor ?

[genarro]

Foor change because the old is damaged dueto bottoming?

[Seerix]

Lando on P1 pace S1/S2 and pits again, similar to Oscar yesterday. Looks like they are hiding the pace maybe?

[billamend]

Lando was on a fast lap (asked for Strat 2) and then Will told him to abort on the last corner.

[Macklaren]

DAMMIT LANDO...another abort after first to sectors were within a hundreth of Max on 5 lap old Softs

[SilviuAgo]

Here we go again ))))) Lando purple in S1, green in S2 (+0.047 vs Max) and...box. Even the guys from SkyF1 noticed it and compared now with Oscar yesterday.

Commentators even think there sand bagging

[Amaro]

I hope the boys can manage a good lap in qualifying

[Zaamy]

That last lap for P5 was on used softs as well

[Ground Effect]

That last lap for P5 was on used softs as well

Yep, he had done at least 3 push laps on them.

[BosF1]

The free practices have been a bit odd regarding the aborted push laps. It's not something the team has done in the past years. And rightly so, because all the teams can extract relative pace from others due to GPS data, even if the lap was aborted. So you would not do it to hide pace from your competitors.

Why would they do relative many aborted push laps this weekend? Any thoughts?

I'm not convinced the car is up on par with either Ferrari or Red Bull yet no matter where we go but hopefully that is the last car that's gonna be designed on the old tunnel and the upgrades that hopefully will be coming are from the new tunnel and have to make a huge difference. Hopefully I'm wrong and today Norris will get front row. In that case I'm ready to eat my own words on a silver platter.
