I havent seen this many teams complain about tires in a quali session this season since today, complaints about no grip and not getting heat into the tires

Its a lottery at this point. Even Albon mentioned it on the radio.
“And that’s part of the game, is being able to be adaptive, and we’ve got this new car – I don’t know how it’s going to handle, hopefully she’s great.”

Anyone else notice there's a bit more flex in the Red Bull front wing?

Do they need to indicate if profile is exactly the same just manufactured differently?
I remember that when they brought new floor where only weight was reduced (in 2022 or so), than that didn't appear in the documents either.

It can be the exact same specification and shape but different construction. They would not need to declare it.

Colapinto is incredibly impressive man. A month ago he wasn't really on the radar for any F1 team. He was considered a driver that was almost good enough for F1, but not worth giving a chance with drivers like Bortoleto and Antonelli in F2. Then he gets a chance out of nowhere and is absolutely on it.

You're both correct. I just assumed you'd have to change more than just construction if you were to design a flexi wing from scratch

It always flexes like that. The eyes of Redbull fans have a special filter though and never see these things. They also don’t remember things like budgets, valved suspension to run illegally low in qualifying, brake valves to rotate the car, rear wing mounts that bend etc

Or Williams have really fast car now and Albon is another average driver. We'll se next season when Sainz join them.
