2022 Scuderia Ferrari F1 Team

..... but its the " Sainz is better than ...." nonsense that is drawing these reactions.

But nobody say Sainz is better than anyone (Lecrerc), so those reactions are overreactions

That´s what I tried to clarify at the end of my last post

Max got this one because of the straight line speed specially on this circuit. i think in any other circuit Leclerc was through.

Well done Leclerc. Great tactics, the man is the beast. Hope that we can keep development race with RB

I think he got this one because after the VSC he managed to cut the distance to 0.7s instead of 1.7s as before. By that time I think LEC had pushed the tyres a bit much and he wasn't able to get good traction out of T27 and some other corners any more. RBR had slightly better tyre deg in the last 10 laps.

I think Ferrari has a few things to figure out with tire warm-up but I'll take a P2/P3 any day.

Strategy was good. Pit stops were quick. Car is fast and good on its tires. The team looks ready to compete for championship this season.

Leclerc should have prevented Verstappen from being in DRS zone. Once he was 0.9 Charles was in trouble.
Sainz not really on pace this weekend but prevented the same thing from Perez.

Also worth noting.. double stack, both under 3 secs... team seems massively improved in all areas...

He should have but could he ?

imo on first overtake Max repeated Bahrain mistake but after that realised and instead of making the move right away he changed his strategy and decided to built the overtake , got the momentum for a clean pass with the help of RB's superior speed and made it stick .

The first try was Bahrain like, but speed differential was too great to even think about slowing down, even Button said as much. Did Leclerc slow down purposefully on that moment?

It was very close. Leclerc managed the gap well before the VSC between 1.0 and 1.5.
I think somehow Verstappen gained a bit under VSC, the Ferrari had more trouble to get heat into the tyres.

Impressive weekend from Ferrari again- a great foundation and I wish them well in the development race against Newey. Two very good cars going at it.

My gut feel is that the smoother Red Bull might edge them as we head to Europe soon but it is so close and what a chance to build on this and fight for the title.

Overall a really nice job from Ferrari! Leclerc has been excellent yet again.

Impressive car. Don’t forget that it’s still the same as in pre-season testing. Let’s see what the first developments will bring. There surely is room for improvement left already by completely solving the porpoising alone.
And we’ve not seen the full potential of the PU either.

Next up is Melbourne. That’s going to be Ferrari territory I believe.

Binotto said Australia and Imola should see the car at its best. Fingers crossed.

Didn’t know Binotto said that, but this confirms my assumption, which is cool.

I was just thinking of the strengths of both cars and I don’t see any on the RBR which could give them the edge over Ferrari in Melbourne.
Ferrari was the class of the field in sector 1 in Jeddah and Melbourne as a whole has a really similar layout.

Track became a lot faster, much higher full throttle percentage, honestly i don't know.
