Verstappen had some kind of PU issue in Monza so it might just be that Red Bull are stretching the mileage on some very old PUs for free practice with his car. They don't have any margin with the PU pool to waste engine life in free practice. Perez's pool seems in a better place. I don't see any difference in the rear wings.
seems plausible

are you still sure he will get to the end without more engine penalties ? :twisted:

I am optimistic about the weekend for the first time in ages

If Perez is fast then the car is behaving better

Red Bull looks good? Perez is usually far off from the pace in FP2.

Monza 2024 was like Mercedes in Bahrain last year. One of the darkest Sundays in Red Bull Racing history. It's good to see a bounce back of sorts.

I'd only say it was a good first day for Perez. I'm not convinced about Verstappen yet. He and the team have work to do otherwise it could still be a bad day tomorrow.

A bit bittersweet from Horner, maybe.

I also read that they have different floor configuration, is this true ? work to do overnight

I also think Verstappen did his long run on the set of mediums that he partially flat spotted at the start of FP2. He said after the incident that he thought he could continue.

Much better looking for Red Bull here. Ferrari seems to be in the mix again.
Honda!

Suggestions that only Perez is running the new diffuser?

Saw Max and Perez with an onboard camera. The car is just different in terms of handling than in last 2 races, just a tiny bit of understeer. Otherwise it felt the same as in Japan this year or China, not like a "boat" in the last two races. Tomorrow we will know more, hopefully we can at least fight with a proper car. A fast Perez usually means an even faster Max...

Typical media made-up - focus on two words... what's wrong with his statement? Have you ever seen such a big event (stream,...) for an announcement? You could get the impression AN had his first official day at AM.

And what is not mentioned in the clickbait headlines: also from CH in the same interview
https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/horn ... /10653769/
...it will be a new challenge for him and it will be sad to see when he leaves next year but we wish him all the best for the future.

I look back with great fondness to the time, the 20 years almost that we spent together, the highs and lows during that period, but look forward to the future and I think we are well positioned for that.
