Ferrari F14T

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

Don't think the Ferrari would have hit 330kph with a 75hp power deficit. Top speed is pretty much there with the rest, so it's a case of useablity and power delivery management rather than outright power figures.

And we can assume that this was not a low-fuel run or a high-performance run, seeing they haven't done any yet.

Any known issues with the Car today .. Kimi sat in the pits after 12 laps whilst everyone is piling up the numbers.

I have a strong feeling the car will next come out with some major updates e.g. a new front wing

In addition to repair some parts of the fairing also be changed in a moment. After the lunch break to proceed for Raikkonen. Not exactly a good start to the week.

In theory this should result in greater reliability for the next few hours, and a new configuration for further progress in the development of the car.

Being a racing driver means you are racing with other people. And if you no longer go for a gap that exists, you are no longer a racing driver because we are competing, competing to win...

11:55 A cryptic explanation from Ferrari for the problems that restricted Raikkonen to just 12 laps this morning:

"We found a small problem that needed fixing and required some time, then fitting some new parts simply elapsed the time a bit more."
The front wing will certainly not have taken time to change, so you'd imagine there are other new parts on the car now as well.

Hm, 7 layer front wing now. I cannot see the underside properly, but I think there's one vertical strake less (compared to early F138). Better picture should reveal.
