Anything is possible, but we saw in Japan that he was just as fast as Yuki despite getting only one real practice session.
As a multiple race winner F1 driver, Ric being as quick as Yuki will not be enough to secure his seat at RBR.djos wrote: ↑16 Apr 2024, 04:20Anything is possible, but we saw in Japan that he was just as fast as Yuki despite getting only one real practice session.
If it wasn’t for the bad start (which Yuki also suffered from) and Alex trying to disprove the 3-into-1 corner rule, it’s likely he’d have had a decent race.
Tsunoda will have learned the track from the simulator.
Some f1 drivers claim they only need 2 laps to find the track limit.
Combined Driver+Seat weight requirements should more or less null any driver weight benefits. I think weight now is only a problem if you're already over the combined weight, so extremely large drivers might have a disadvantage but i don't think there's an inherent advantage in being shorter, except maybe that the seat ballast could be placed lower.
Spam? Please, feel free to post the positive ones if they are worth reading and do not just accuse Wouter. This is a forums, you can show why the articles are not good and that you have better ones.
I am not 100% sure what you mean with tabloid articles. What I saw is not the classical clickbait, but people writing essays that may be biased or not. So same as above...please post what you think is worth reading and tell us why you do not like other articles. "this is negative" is not enough, sorry, I do not know what you mean.
I do not think this will take this long at the current trajectory. As djos wrote, the data was promising in Japan, but this is the minimum...if he stays at a tenth behind this will end in summer.

You are so full of it! The claims in your tabloid bog roll have already been rebutted by the team CEO!Wouter wrote: ↑16 Apr 2024, 12:48.basti313 wrote: ↑16 Apr 2024, 12:35.

Thanks for posting this @basti313.
There were one or two posts removed. All my posts are still here.
Also my reliable post from Motorsport Italy is still here. It isn't a tabloid at all.
Honestly, I’m just sick of the one sided negative nature of his posts, and I’m not the only one, just one of the more vocal members.
The only way this bickering will end is when one of them decides to mute the other, which they refuse to do! Its either that or we bear this until Ricciardo is eventually booted.CMSMJ1 wrote: ↑16 Apr 2024, 12:55The forum should be balancing itself in lots of ways - right?
Just be grown ups.. Arguing like kids and banging the table all the time is tiring!
Have your favourites, maybe even learn to disagree agreably about their performance but remember that the F1 game is brutal - you must perform, or you are spat out.
DR3 - he has lost his edge. It is plain to see and it is a shame as he is a really charismatic dude who you'd want to do well. Stopwatch and results doesn't lie though.
@djos - that last post..man, really? Could you and Wouter not have a sensible chat at all?
