2024 Oracle Red Bull Racing F1 Team

[Vanja #66]

Both Red Bull and McLaren appeared weaker in the race than they truly were. At the start, Max had to take a lot from his tyres to cover Sainz (who also took a lot from his Mediums) and this compromised his first stint a bit. Then on Hards, seeing he'll have Norris on fresher Hards in the final few laps, I imagine he backed down and saved them to avoid going off the cliff while fighting. As for McLaren, I guess seeing how the Sprint went with suffering on Mediums and dropping to P4 for Lando they decided to drop the pace early on and extend the stint to have as much pace as possible to fight Max later on.

At worst, I think Max was 0.1s behind Leclerc in realistic pace, while realistically I think if he got the lead in T1 he would have won if he and GP wanted to win and not simply cover Norris

2 moderators: please move the post above (which looks more like a stand-up performance rather than serious post) to "Scuderia Ferrari F1 team" thread. It was posted in this thread clearly by mistake.

AMuS got some information on that part - its another setup change they made due to the high deg on the rear tires in the sprint. Therefore they made some adjustments (overreaction according to Dr. Marko) to reduce the load on the rear tires, which led to understeer. They tried the front wing adjustment during the stop, but it didnt help to fix it. It got even worse on hards.

It feels like they still need to find the ultimate answer regarding stability and drive ability - but they are heading into the right direction.
Looking forward to Mexico with more time to dial in and it will be interesting to see our efficiency with the high altitude up there.

Why didn't Lando got a penalty for the 4th and 5th tracklimit? Three are allowed.
They allowed the 5th because he (had to) overake outside the track but how about the 4th??

No. 39 wasn't track limits violation. They deleted this lap, because he breached the track limits on the last turn of the previous lap.

Well, round 38 was the fourth time but NO penalty at all! How come?

Case number 36 is T12 at Lap 52 with Max which was a deleted lap by default, but it wasn't considered his fault due to the incident so it didn't count as a strike

The 3rd in this list was when he overtook outside the track. So they probably didn't count it as track limit seperately. The 4th and the 5th are the same.. So number 1, 2 and 4 are counted and that is when he got the black and white flag. After that there was no track limit violation.

I know you are a Max fan (as am I), but is was 3, not 4 or 5.
