it is odd that leclerc has been quite lucky this year.. very Unusal...
Soo I predict he will be on course to win but his engine will go PUFFF this weekend..
why u gotta be like that
Oof sorry.. seems only part of this came true.. lol
So basically now Carlos HAS to win and Leclerc has to pray that he can recover while a McLaren gets caught up in an incident pretty much. I'm sure the McLaren drivers will be told to just bring it home no matter what and that their only job is to not crash the car, even if that means finishing off the podium.
That is unless Leclerc has a rocketship like Hamilton in Brazil 2021 or Verstappen at Spa 2023.
At least Ferrari have the advantage of having literally nothing to lose. Leclerc needs to finish ahead of both McLarens, so he can go all out and take any risks required.

Fred: "The penalty? Since last week, we were in survival mode, giving mouth-to-mouth resuscitation to the drums between all the sessions, and now, it wouldn't work anymore. So, we didn't want to take any risks: we're taking the penalty, but we're going to try to do our best."
I don't know, maybe I'm wrong, but I would invite the drivers who are left without a place in F1 for 2025 as Ferrari simulator drivers (Bottas or Zhou Guanyu, whoever). They have experience driving these cars in the current Venturi era, in qualifying and race modes with a Ferrari engine. Give them the opportunity to drive F1-75/SF23 and let them sit in the simulator on the SF25 looking for good settings next year instead of the current drivers. Who is their simulator driver in Maranello?
