Are Ferrari using the same RW as all previous races?

The lower DF wing that was brought to Jeddah and not used. Is that counted in the cost cap, or is it only if it used on track? Cheers.
They only major piece of bodywork that was changed in these 6 weekends was beam wing, two- and one-piece parts were used. Even front wing flaps were the same, only angle was changed. Cooling louvre changes on engine cover shoulders and g flap trim are a given :)

Low-level wing will surely be used in Belgium and Baku, so it will be a part of the seasonal costs in any case.
Belgium and Baku? Is the wing just a lower downforce and not LOW df? So they have 3 wings then for the season?

4? Monaco spec?

From high to low, they will definitely use Monaco (high), medium (the one used now), Belgium/Baku (low) and the lowest - Monza/Vegas wing. Last year they sometimes had balance issues, so had to use mid-high-level wing in some races where highest load is needed.

And they call it a stall. A STALL!

That Vegas wing might as well not exist. Can not see that livery without thinking of Charles sending it on Perez. Still annoyed at the Safety Car in that race.

Leclerc can not catch a break. What was Ocon doing...

Completely forgot about the Sprint race, only caught the last 3 laps how did Sainz fail to overtake Ricciardo?

I do not normally do this, but SAI has had a really bad sprint race. I don't care much about making a mistake when taking risks, but if you are racing to finish behind a VCARB then you maybe shouldn't be racing. Maybe something is wrong in his car, but finishing 11.5s behind your team mate in 19 laps is laughable.

Good pace given the lack of upgrades, especially given how the sturggles in S2.

It's practically impossible to overtake around here. I wouldn't say Sainz had a bad race, just an average one.

We need to get quali right or the race will be a complete disaster.
Pace was good. Race on with Perez and Norris providing we can qualify well.

He seemed too reserved to really attack, not sure why. The car had the pace, but he didn't overtake

If Max has an off-session ( or even a bad lap like he did in SQ) and qualifies outside of the top 3 then Ferrari has the pace to keep him at bay in the race IMO. It's very tight

If there is a DRS train, and he is stuck maybe but the RB in qualifying has been pretty much dominant till now so...

Ferrari main issue is sector 2 and especially in traction zones which makes overtaking extremely difficult even with a big pace advantage.

Also McL will be quick.

This is a car with almost zero upgrades that more or less kept pace with RB around here - super impressive and very encouraging for when they bring the big Imola package. If it’s anything close to what’s expected, we’re going to have a fair few more interesting weekends this season and we’ll set up for 2025.

Yeah, compared to last year Ferrari now is matching RB deg, but with less overall pace.
