At least we're not the only ones misreading telemetry.
Both drivers performed. Excellent result today. One on the podium tomorrow is the target. Weather hotter too, so Mercedes should continue to suffer

I said I hope, I didnt say I realistically believe it. I think it should have been obvious to you in my previous commentMB_Racer wrote: ↑28 Jun 2025, 17:49ismail1991 wrote: ↑28 Jun 2025, 17:43I hope Ferraris race pace is better and we can put some pressure on Mclaren especially at the pit stops
Do you really realistically believe that this is possible during the race ?
Sorry, but I'm going to be completely honest here – aren't people the comedians who praise a driver's past achievements and say that you can't compare him and his actual abilities to someone who consistently beats him in the present? Hamilton may have achieved what he wanted in the past, but what counts is the present and this is what was talked about. And there he is, simply slow and repeatedly beaten by his teammates (Leclerc isn't the first), looking anything but good. And past achievements don't make a driver incomparable in the present. Of course he is. And the comparison in the present paints a clear picture. He already looked bad against Russell at Mercedes, and now he's doing the same against Leclerc at Ferrari. So actually, in my opinion, a comedian is someone who draws on long-past glories to evaluate a driver in the present or to place him above another who is currently and continuously whipping the floor with him. Its the here and now that counts and what the "comparison" was in relation to, not what was 10 years ago.
Hamilton is doing fine, he managed to outqualify leclerc last time out and was less than a tenth away today. even when both drivers do well people find something to criticizeAndi76 wrote: ↑28 Jun 2025, 18:12Sorry, but I'm going to be completely honest here – aren't people the comedians who praise a driver's past achievements and say that you can't compare him and his actual abilities to someone who consistently beats him in the present?

Interesting also the direct comparison between #Hamilton and #Leclerc. It's the first time that Lewis's aggressive approach at corner entry pays off well on the stopwatch. In #Ferrari, they had previously told him to brake earlier in past races because he was carrying too much speed and ended up losing more at the exit than he gained at the entry. Here, however, the 44 had managed to be 0.2 ahead of the 16 at the end of the slow corner section, thanks to the ability to enter hard and at the same time get back on the gas quickly, somewhat confirming the aerodynamic load that seems to have increased even in the low range, giving him more confidence on the throttle. In the fast sections, however, Lewis still loses quite a bit, but the snap at turn 6 is evident, which probably took away some confidence and rhythm for turn 9. At turn 10, though, Lewis this time dove in hard, almost losing it again. It will be interesting to see if the challenge between the two Ferrari drivers becomes more heated as the #SF25 becomes more loaded and stable with updates.
We’re miles off one mclaren who has been 0.2s consistently faster than the other all weekend so far.Xyz22 wrote:We are miles off McLaren but did better than the others. Depressing.
Yep, Adami said it was turns 6 and 7 where he lost the time. They'll be qualifying together and higher up more consistently if they bring a solid update that stabilizes the rear.DJ Downforce wrote: ↑28 Jun 2025, 18:39Yawnnnnn just some trolling
Boys did well today, shame Ham messed up the last sector would've been nice to have a 2-3. But under a tenth doesn't warrant criticism by h2h waving trolls
Lec needs a good start and to slipstream his way past. The McLaren drag will affect their chances of overtaking. Could make it hard for Piastri too.
Its not about pace, its about tyre deg, and did they fix the brakes so that there were no more lico in the last third of the race.ismail1991 wrote: ↑28 Jun 2025, 17:43I hope Ferraris race pace is better and we can put some pressure on Mclaren especially at the pit stops
