what an absolute mess
idk if it's possible at this point but i wonder if they can do something like increase the fuel flow rate for 2027 so that the ice/electric split is closer to 65/35

because currently this is Not It

[FrukostScones]

yeah yeah yeah.

what is this buffoonery.

The FIA is still going to evaluate the SM zone during and after FP3.

Its not realistic to change anything after FP3. Teams would have to change ride heights because they can't run their low ride heights if SM mode is not active in this part of the track. The cars bottom out.

Weekend at Briatore's.

I don't think Antonelli is making qualifying.

On 1 lap old tires no less.

Cooking. Kimi may finish on the podium from pit lane.

[djos]

Ouch!

The Ferrari's and Oscar all seem very quick over 1 lap - Qually is going to be interesting.

George did a stint of 7 laps. Starting with 1.22.2xx and after 4 laps, dipped into 1.21.2xx and finished the last lap with 1.21.4xx. Any guesses what fuel load is that?
