What a shitshow. All that Yuki data helped so much that both cars are out in Q1. The floor conspiracy theories are also dead in the water? Max was using the Monza floor afterall.
"Monza floor" by itself doesn't mean anything, unless they have the setup to go with it (like they did in Austin). From what it looks, they have no idea what to do, and are simply shooting in the dark. When I said 'gambler team' I didn't expect them to be like a drunk lottery winner at a casino. Right now, all the earlier talk from Monza about 'we found a new way to setup the car, working around correlation problems' is looking like 'they didn't really find anything, just got lucky, now it has run out'.

I am seeing posts expecting P7, some even expecting podium etc. Guys, let's be real, this is looking worse^ than Hungary, and even if it rains, the driver can't make a difference, if the car is not balanced at all (understeer in corner entry and oversteer in middle of corner) - it's undrivable. It will be some kind of redemption if going blind like this and starting from pitlane even leads to P10.

^they are all 'long corners' in Interlagos, unlike the few in Hungary, so the 'badness' is going to get amplified.

On German Sky, Ralf Schumacher just said that all Tsunoda does at Red Bull is burning fuel.

Fortunately Steiner is not in charge of the team :D

according to Jos Verstappen, Tsunoda is running the new floor, by the way. I hadn't seen this mentioned yet.

Wind is picking up. Rain drops are falling. More rain on the horizon.

.. Verstappen looking to be on a medium-lowish downforce setup eyeballing his rear wing :roll:

The intial sprint setup wasn't that bad with a bit of fuel and we only have seen that it didn't work with softs on light fuel.
Mexico was also bad on mediums but much more competitive on softs.
You never know.

If it's raining can they change setup again before race? Like already starting from pit lane anyways.

Thinking about it, low-medium downforce if probably the only way to go if the track stays dry-ish. Cannot overtake otherwise. They'll try to emulate Hamilton and combine that rear wing with a turned up PU and just give it all they've got.

Good question. What are they doing there?
