Esteban Gutierrez and the entire Haas F1 Team were left to rue another near miss to a points scoring finish as the team saw its cars finished the Italian Grand Prix in 11th and 13th positions. Esteban Gutierrez' chances for instance were quickly ruined as he completely missed his start and dropped to 20th by the first corner.

Hulk complained that the cars Balance was "Crap", and said they have huge room for improvements (on the mechanical side)NAPI10 wrote:Perez FP1 & FP2 fastest times are identical ; surprise to see no improvement by FI.
That's a big nope from me. We were seeing something similar in other rounds as well. Amazing the pace of development and a few years of stable regulations will do. Which is why I was hoping 2018 would be when the new chassis rules should have been introduced to see even closer racing like we have been getting this year. Mercedes is staggering there is no doubt but Red Bull and FI have seriously upped their game. I really am enjoying this year a lot!dans79 wrote:Anyone else surprised to see that the top three cars are already under last year's pole time?
I think Red Bull can match the Ferrari's pace, their low downforce setup is really good, they have maybe the best traction. So the key will be the tires deg and also the track position, and when you konow how fast Ricciardo can be on one lap i think one of the RB can finish ahead of the Ferrari.Vasconia wrote:I doubt its true. If this would be the case, RB would have destroyed Ferrari in Spa and it didn happened(forget the initial incident, Ferrari´s pace was good).NathanOlder wrote:Didn't Ricciardo or someone similar say the Renault is equal to the Ferrari PU now ? If thats the case, Red Bull surely have a better car ? Red Bull will fill the 2nd row tomorrow ?
