If only quantity correlated with quality.

So frustrating watching F1 these days. The TV director never shows the cars on track always cutting away to pointless pit crew garages cars that aren’t even on a hot lap or show pointless replays or even cut away from someone who is on a hot lap

Verstappen went with Monaco BW + RW in FP1. If they run that and can qualify well which fp1 seems to suggest, you would assume they will keep hold of their tyres well.

Red bull with a lot of degradation on the soft + high fuel

McLaren run looks good. Most impressive run I would say

did Ferrari already burn two sets of medium ?

[Sergej]

seems a very tight pack at the front

[Sevach]

did Ferrari already burn two sets of medium ?

A lot of teams did(including Mercedes and Ferrari), Red Bull and Mclaren used only 1 medium.

did Ferrari already burn two sets of medium ?

yeah, this is what they'll have left after FP2. I guess Ferrari is confident to be able to race on softs (or to do a one-stopper)

[Luscion]

Seems like the softs are only good for one run, they fall of a cliff by sector 2

[zibby43]

Strong pace from LH and fastest in the medium speed corners.

Merc race pace nothing to write home about. RB looks fastest with McLaren/Ferrari a little off.

This might even be a 3 stopper for some. No way anyone can pull off a 1 stopper. Everyone is falling off the cliff with degradation.

Max is telling GP his tyres are cooked etc

Max: "The tyres are too hot, so I'm just sliding on every axle."

Max: "My tyres are completely cooked. No grip."
GP: "Still useful learning Max."

[Luscion]

is this accurate?
