I'd say that is the best weekend that Carlos has done for the team, well done.
Charles...the less said, the better.
All drivers have some bad races in any condition, but on average he is very good in wet conditions. That is where he took his first pole in Formula 1 (Silverstone '22).
I trully adore your obsession with Leclerc, after everything Max won and you guys still can't miss a chance to make some false narratives. Did Bahrain and Austria 22 really hurt so much?AR3-GP wrote: ↑28 Oct 2024, 00:08I agree that it is a limitation for him. Japan '22 (last lap). Japan '24 (went off in degner 2 when under pressure from Perez in the first stint). Vegas '23 (went off under pressure from Perez). France '22. Miami '22 vs Verstappen. Today, almost losing it in front of Norris but that is the beauty of the sport. All the drivers have their limitations. They are all different. In spite of this, he will still win something. Sainz managed to win today but he is not perfect either.edu2703 wrote: ↑28 Oct 2024, 00:02
It's one thing to be overtaken by a legitimately faster driver. That's ok. It's another to simply give up a position because of a silly mistake. This is embarrasing and even more embarassing for Leclerc to continue doing this after years in F1. A driver who cannot hold his own on the track against other drivers will never be champion.
Does the new SF24 suffer from the cold? Mexico had a normal cold snap from q1 to q3, but it didn't bother Carlos and Charles.
Bahrain '22 will never be cleaned. Absolutely clowned Max in wheel to wheel racing.
Norris cut down on Sainz something like 15s on Hards, 10s were cut when dark clouds got over the track alone. I think it's crystal clear how sensitive to track temps the car is
It was +/- the same at Austin without the clouds, Lando was fastest at the end.
Norris may not be great at starts but his qualifying pace is great, aside from this weekend, and his race management has been solid since Monza. I don't see him being off the podium for the rest of the year.
Wasn't this close even though Leclerc was cruising and Norris had a very important tyre life and pace offset
