2019 German Grand Prix - Hockenheimring, July 26-28

[McL-H]

Hamilton all 4 over ? No delete?

Very strange as he clearly exceeded track limits there.

Mercedes went back to the tight bodywork, but it doesn't seem like an instant cure to say the least.

Ferrari seemgly wants Vettel to say "no more, i'm done".

Ferrari continue their habit of screwing Quali for their drivers home race (Lec in Monaco, Vettel in Germany)

Mercedes trying Mediums??????

[matt_b]

Merc are nowhere today but with a wet race tomorrow they just need to be on the second row.

Maybe running more downforce in preperation for wet race?

Might explain the middle sector deficit, we will find out tomorrow though.

[Restomaniac]

Suddenly Mercedes finds 0.7s on a slower tyre

[F1NAC]

Verstappen also with power problems

[Restomaniac]

Not Verstappen too?

Maybe they are overheating the Softs and get along better on Mediums. We've often seen them being relatively better on harder tyres.

[Pyrone89]

Tyre disadvantage for RB tomorrow

[Bill_Kar]

Nooooooooo, Verstappen also out

He is on track

[dans79]

With Ferrari and red bull having problems maybe Mercedes have just been saving the engine all weekend.

[Pyrone89]

Still massive lag problems for Verstappen

[Pyrone89]

RB is going to hope for rain tomorrow to cancel out having to start on the softs vs the mediums for the other guys. They definately intended to start on the mediums.

I doubt pretty much that Ferrari and RBR are having issues because they might have pushed their PU a little bit more. They know exactly how and when to push. I don’t think that today’s PUs are that unreliable.

all the manufacturers have put a substantial number of laps on the power units they are running currently. Not to mention they all put them through a lot of stress in Austria.
