2024 Scuderia Ferrari F1 Team

We are in a much better place compared to yesterday, especially with Leclerc. We need linear Q1 and Q2 to build confidence because it looks extremely close

[Space-heat]

Norris blocked Leclerc, but so annoying if that contact is a grid penalty.

[MV8]

I doubt he gets a grid penalty, probably reprimand for LEC.

Charles Charles Charles. That was silly. Pole is possible today and absolutely NOT the day to be playing games like that.

[Shader]

That was a grid penalty there... I don't understand why would someone do that in any kind of scenario...

[Fakepivot]

what a stupid UN-nessasry action from Charles, disappointed.. i won't feel sad if he gets grid penalty, driver sometime need teaching in a hard way possible not to do stupid stuff like that.

[Autobahn303]

100% grid penalty, such a childish behaviour.

Totally agree. Break testing someone regardless which session it’s in needs to be severely punished

Norris impeding Leclerc on purpose is something else. On an outlap and never bothered to move, unbelievable... If this was Q, a 3-place grid penalty would have already been given

However unbelieve or unprofessional Norris was, what leClerc did , in retaliation, was petulant school-bully stuff. Didn't expect this from him.

Imho LEC just took a tight line, unnecessarily. Contact was caused by NOR not expecting it and relaxing his line through the corner which eventually resulted in contact. You can check NOR wheel distance from the grass on the front view.

Anyway unnecessary from LEC but also from NOR.

Yea…. If you ignore Leclerc slamming on the breaks and pulling a load of downshifts

[Macklaren]

I think NOR and VER were just taken by surprise that Ferrari were still doing fast laps after time expired. NOR happened LEC but that's usually a reprimand in FP. Driving into a competitor deliberately on the other hand....

Norris was on the racing line and Leclerc tried getting past. Norris, looking left side the whole time then straightens the steering wheel, moves a meter and hits Leclerc. But yeah, let's always blame Ferrari drivers...

VER was on a push lap, he was blocked by Norris as well so bailed out. Norris will argue that was due to Charles incident which is fair but they are at fault for the initial incident of blocking on LEC push. Ver, Norris and another then blocked Sainz.

Realistically, it is on Charles as he unsettled Norris and caused the following VER and Sainz issue but he did block Charles. If Stroll doesn't get a penalty for his, then Charles might get away with it.

I think Norris was playing games, he was blocked by a William on his early quali sim much earlier and may have been annoyed or maybe his engineer just did not do his job. Charles was probably more annoyed as he has had limited running with the old spec in FP1 and then a set up change in FP2 limiting running. No excuse but might explain it slightly.

Honestly, I am all for villain arc Charles (minus unneeded contact).
