Further motivation to bring Bearman early.
Just messy like all the other onboards, understeer on entry with oversteer on exit.ScuderiaLeo wrote: ↑28 Nov 2025, 20:20Well I wasn't even expecting Q3 so this is an overachievement..
Hamilton's post-session comments weren't exactly enlightening. Waiting to hear what Leclerc has to say. He was very mad on the radio about Sainz impeding him on the prep lap
Does anyone have a clip of Leclerc's final lap? I saw the first sector which looked pretty bad but then my feed cut out.
I wonder if Hamilton will start from the pit lane with a different setup. Probably won't make a difference in result but might be useful to gather info for the real GP..
They've been having a lot of issues with prep laps the past 2-3 races, I'm not surprised if he felt it was compromised even if it was only a small interference. He said in his interview that it wasn't impeding and Sainz had a right to do it, it's just annoying (for those behind him) and since they were already struggling it made things worse
yeah, thanks, I just rewatched it, and Sainz almost came to a standstill on the straight indeed, which probably wasn't ideal for his preparation. Alonso more or less did the same ahead of him, so I guess it was more of a chain of events,with all those cars trying to get ahead of the Mercedes going through the pits.ScuderiaLeo wrote: ↑28 Nov 2025, 22:09They've been having a lot of issues with prep laps the past 2-3 races, I'm not surprised if he felt it was compromised even if it was only a small interference.

Ferrari dropping the ball after making some progress has been the one consistent thing about the engineering team after the Schumacher-Brawn-Todt era. 2011 after the 2010 title fight, 2016 after the promising 2015, 2019 after the 2017-2018 title fights, 2023 after 2022, and now 2025 after 2024. Whenever they take a step forward, they make sure to take one back subsequently. The reasons may vary, but they always flounder with the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th best car, never making that important step to be a consistent title challenger.SoulPancake13 wrote: ↑28 Nov 2025, 21:19Wonder what Ferrari will do when both Charles and Lewis leave in 2027. Ollie sure, who is the second driver then? Even making it to SQ3 was a miracle for Charles given this awful car. It's depressing how 2024 ended compared to the sh*tshow of a season 2025 has been. First season without a win in this regulation set where you started with the fastest car, just embarassing.
I hope Charles leaves to go to a team with a WDC worthy car, because Marinello won't be doing that any time soon.
