Leclerc was complaining about deployment in FP3, I wonder if it's the same problem

Also both drivers complained about the radio quality and they can't hear the engineer...

The gap between #Leclerc and #Russell in this Q2 is purely and simply one of power. #Ferrari makes up ground in all the corners, even quite a bit, but on the straights it loses out by a lot. 10 km/h on the back straight, another 10 at the braking zone for Turn 11, and anyway you can see it clearly from the top of the graph.

Mercedes has a superior engine or ICE. We will come to know more about it post 1st June where the tests kick in and see if it's trick or genuine

Also Race Day it's going to much hotter than Qualifying so both engine and Aero will be tested

So we absolutely need the rear wing if the 5km/h advantage is real.

Australia is also a power centric circuit which shows Ferrari and others lag to Mercedes on engine side

They keep complaining about the charging... could it be a software issue?

Add the RBR FORD power train ICE as well, both used the same compression loophole, Merc may be a bit better than RBR FORD, creating something original and vs a copy is the current difference in performance.

Battery stopped them from showing their true pace, but its typical Ferrari to run flawless all weekend in every practice session, then when the chips are down they have a problem.

I feel cheated… Ferrari car and PU are good. Merc is cheating but why Merc clients are not benefiting so much ?
