2024 Mclaren Formula 1 Team

Need to drive 2 tens faster in the third sector without losing in the first two, and then everything will be great. But I am completely happy with the current situation. So far everything is developing well.

I think he needed to ease off, not go faster, he was on for a purple S3.

Yes. Leclerc beat it by .06 of a second on his next quick lap and Lando was over 7 tenths up so I rounded it.

Leclerc then improved not by 0.06, but by almost 0.7.

I looked at the telemetry, I'm forgetting. Lando was 7 tenths faster than Leclercs fastest lap on softs at the time he went to the gravel. I did check before I posted, but then forgot that I checked.

It's looking promising so far. And the top speed is not too shabby. Of course the real test is on Sunday, but this upgrade is looking like it enabled a lot of options for them (setup-wise) even if the car's weaknesses remain.

Yeah I feel the same. I'm usually very against predictions on a Friday but it's hard to hold in the words row, and front...

Given the huge amount of aerodynamic testing today, they still have a lot to learn about the chassis.

He could always have just misspoke genuinely.

I was thinking that if we could sign him then we would. But £20m is a lot of money to find. But then he knows everything about how to make the car a title winner.

Edit: its worth saying that the speed is coming from the corners. Straights are a little better but not a game changer, that said, a few tenths of that 7 tenths was on the straights so it is noticeable. But that could well be fuel, engine mode etc...

Eddie Jordan says a lot of stuff though, with the source often being his own a**.
Others are reporting he signed with Ferrari already, but also not from reputable sources. At the moment, unless an official statement is made at some point, I am just assuming Newey is heading to Ferrari.

His own arm? How strange! He normally talks from his ass.

You are right about Eddie, but you know he is Newey's agent, right?

[MTudor]

We are for a really good weekend because we never looked good on a friday,we usually come alive in FP3,so I'm optimistic for a back to back wins
