They can change, but Mercedes wasn’t the only team struggling in the hotter conditions last week especially in the morning.AR3-GP wrote: ↑18 Feb 2026, 13:06Antonelli looks like he's on lower fuel in his runs today compared to Leclerc. He had a few moments off the track and last week they struggled with setup. Russell said car was not as responsive as Barcelona due to track temp. Its only a snap shot though. Things can change again.
And I disrespect people behaving in a cocky way and making fun of others.
Not really. But you could do me a favor and start following another sport. Problem solved then.
Nobody is riding the "Mercedes unstoppable" wave just yet because remember Mclaren does use the same engine. Now in terms of them being the "favorites" I can see why people would jump ship on that. And there's nothing wrong with that, it's just playful banter.Emag wrote: ↑18 Feb 2026, 18:16I think people are riding this "Mercedes unstoppable" wave a bit too early. Ferrari has shown some strong signs of competitiveness these last couple of days. Unless Mercedes is somehow hiding more than half a second of pace, then it's not going to be a whitewash at least.
I don't think McLaren is going to be in it at the start of the season, but we are only going by what teams are showing us. And from what Mercedes and Ferrari have shown us so far, they're quite close to each other.SB15 wrote: ↑18 Feb 2026, 18:19Nobody is riding the "Mercedes unstoppable" wave just yet because remember Mclaren does use the same engine.
