This forum contains threads to discuss teams themselves. Anything not technical about the cars, including restructuring, performances etc belongs here.
All true. From my perspective I was talking to emag about the performance on the straights vs FP3 because I was of the opinion previously that Ferrari were pushing the car a bit more in FP3. This could be engine, fuel or anything else.
Curious about used vs softs though. I'm sure it's a coincidence but Ferrari weren't as slow as expect on used tyres in FP3 and Max was slower on new tyres than used.
The track conditions could have changed a little. The asphalt temperature, the wind (if there was one). It's hard to say. One can only complain that the chassis of McLaren's rivals is more sensitive to external changes.

Tire deg is low here, almost negligible, but only until you start graining. Then it starts falling apart.
Tomorrow it will be a race of whose tires will give in first.
McLaren should give Oscar a direct order to stay alongside Lando and block everyone else until turn 1. They can start racing each other after that
Well, Lando won every race i didnt watch this year, and i probably wont be able to watch the race tomorrow, so fingers crossed. If it happens again, i want some compensation for skipping races in the future
If i would get the money to start my own F1 team, i would revive Arrows

Ferrari I can sort of understand, ish. Actually as I write that it does make sense. The new tyres are only going to be a bigger benefit over used when your pushing harder than anyone would in FP3, I guess.
But Max in Q3 is still very odd.
But clearly he will be a threat tomorrow.

Yep, as the telemetry suggested, pretty bad exit out of the first chicane. Other than that it doesn’t look bad though. Maybe a tiny bit of hesitation at parabolica.
Scuderia Ferrari Monegasque driver Charles Leclerc and McLaren’s Oscar Piastri were at risk of penalties for incidents that occurred during Free Practice 3 for the Formula 1 Italian Grand Prix.
The FIA’s decision
The International Federation has decided that there will be no consequences for the McLaren driver and the Monegasque.
