Well it wouldn't be such an active campaign to get Ferrari back to the top if that top wasn't important. I think after Elkann got burned with his favorite toy Juventus, he switched to a new one called Scuderia Ferrari F1, and now it is obvious that a lot of attention and action is given to the team.AmateurDriver wrote: ↑09 May 2024, 19:01Let me just say I'd bloody love to be proven wrong and way too pessimistic.
Agnelli/Elkann are upside-down King Midas.

Xavi built a backlog of things he’s checking and now has all the time to check.Luscion wrote:
There is no way that Norris did not push not only in last stint, even at the end stint when the first victory in F1 was looming, more than sure that he push on all hundred to get the maximum possible gap in case of a surprising vsc at the end.
But right now Ferrari in a best position in a turbo era ever, and can turned to some similiar as Schumacher, Todt, Brawn era, after Vigne was moved away from interfering in the team's affairs and Elkann started acting on his own.AmateurDriver wrote: ↑09 May 2024, 19:14Agnelli/Elkann are upside-down King Midas.

Goodbye to dreams of hearing the monster duo of Xavi + Ham on the radio.
Predict every outcome, quote the post which ended up being correct after the fact, look like you know what you're talking about.AR3-GP wrote: ↑09 May 2024, 18:54I don't have enough time to find the post, but in a different post you said Red Bull would have an easy win in Miami. I remember it because I was annoyed by it.
In any case, your own post are contradictory:
In one you say Imola will be like Japan and China. In the other you say Ferrari will get close in Imola.
You know what you are doing. Stop this.
I agree. Norris was pushing until the last 4-5 laps.yooogurt wrote:There is no way that Norris did not push not only in last stint, even at the end stint when the first victory in F1 was looming, more than sure that he push on all hundred to get the maximum possible gap in case of a surprising vsc at the end.
I’m sure some people will say that the gap wasn’t representative in S2 because Lando could’ve been saving the tires just to avoid any major surprises, but I find that unlikely. Norris kept doing strong lap after strong lap, and it wasn’t until the last few laps that it was clear that Max wasn’t going to get to him. You can even see how from laps 46 to 51 Max picked up the pace and tried to close the gap, but was unable to.
Montezemolo was key to Schumi-era greatness. He was as passionate as Enzo and has always been a Ferrari man and a racer at heart. On the other hand, if you were italian you'd know one has to expect nothing good (and nothing new) coming from the Agnelli side.yooogurt wrote: ↑09 May 2024, 19:25But right now Ferrari in a best position in a turbo era ever, and can turned to some similiar as Schumacher, Todt, Brawn era, after Vigne was moved away from interfering in the team's affairs and Elkann started acting on his own.AmateurDriver wrote: ↑09 May 2024, 19:14Agnelli/Elkann are upside-down King Midas.

Nothing could be further from the truth. Please also keep your posts on topic of Ferrari. Juventus and other business ventures of Agnelli family have nothing to do with Ferrari
On the one hand maybe, but on the other hand Luca Di stayed at the helm and made decisions that did not allow the success to continue (just let Ross be a TP cmonAmateurDriver wrote: ↑09 May 2024, 19:33Montezemolo was key to Schumi-era greatness.

) I think the main ingredients for success in that era were still Schumacher, Todt, Brawn and Byrne. And now we had some similar happening, just the thought of Byrne and Newey helping to build a 2026 car im very excited.A few words only, since I have been warned not to dig too much into the implications of Agnelli/Elkann controlling Ferrari (and I'm aligning to moderator's request even though I don't agree with him). Marchionne (let alone Elkann) would NEVER strive (and pay) to snatch Brown Byrne Schumi from the competition.yooogurt wrote: ↑09 May 2024, 19:49On the one hand maybe, but on the other hand Luca Di stayed at the helm and made decisions that did not allow the success to continue (just let Ross be a TP cmonAmateurDriver wrote: ↑09 May 2024, 19:33Montezemolo was key to Schumi-era greatness.
