"If we were trying to draw that pattern together then probably the strongest correlation that we can make at the moment, is that our competitiveness drops when the track is warm, when the day is at its warmest and therefore the tyre temperatures rise with those of the track. [...] From FP3 to qualifying in Melbourne there was not a set-up change."

"That will be that there are underlying characteristics in say the aerodynamic map that you've engineered or the suspension characteristic that is aggravating that particular feature."

The team's performance dips when the track heats up, and it's not just about setup changes. There are underlying factors in the aero or suspension setup and design that Mercedes need to fix.

If Sainz becomes Ferrari's top driver this year and challenges for the championship (unlikely with Max's dominance), it'd be ironic. He's matured at Ferrari, while Leclerc's still making old mistakes, lacking progress.

It’d be ironic if Sainz ends up as Ferrari’s top driver this year and even challenges for the championship (though I doubt it with Max’s dominance). He seems to have really matured at Ferrari, evolving into a well-rounded driver.

Meanwhile, Leclerc’s got the speed, but he’s still repeating the same mistakes from his early days at Ferrari, showing a lack of progress.

Russell has a knack for getting into sticky situations, then pointing fingers later. But that crash? Looked peculiar on the replays.

Seemed like he had the speed to pass Alonso, but got caught off guard by Alonso's slowing Aston. Let's wait and see what the stewards make of it.

Edit: Alonso received a penalty. The explanation is intriguing: Russell, closely trailing him, anticipated Alonso to maintain his recent driving style. However, Alonso opted to slow down in the corner to accelerate afterward, catching Russell off guard. While Russell may have exaggerated, with him tailing Alonso so closely, the move was unexpected and perilous, leaving Russell insufficient time to adjust.

Seeing last year's driver championship results and the his performance all weekend long in Australia, I see more potential in Sainz as in Leclerc.

Dude crushed it in WEC! Top of his team, earning props from seasoned drivers (not just daddy Wolff doing his marketing). Lewis, better keep an eye on your seat for 2025!

Erstmals spricht Peter Altmaier als Umweltminister im Bundestag. Den Einbruch beim Ausbau der Photovoltaik sieht er als Erfolg.

Nennt die Idioten beim Namen. Sie sind doch stolz drauf.

It's exciting to see Bearman in a Ferrari, but Sainz needs to get back in the car ASAP and prove he's worthy of a seat next year (he definitely will find one though).

I'd love to see him outperforming Charles, to be honest.

Es ist absolut absurd wie die Union mit faktisch unhaltbaren und populistischen Argumenten immer wieder die politische Debatte beeinflusst.

Faktisch haben von 5.5 Mio. berechtigten BürgergeldbezieherInnen in DE knapp 13.838 einen Minderungsgrund durch Verweigerung einer Maßnahme erhalten.

Populistisch klingt Totalverweigerer halt zutreffend, auch wenn es weder belegt noch dokumentiert werden kann. Und das es vom Grundgesetz noch nicht mal erlaubt ist Menschen zu 100% zu sanktionieren, lassen wir einfach mal stehen. Aber was genau ist praktische und reale Lösung, dass so viele in diesem Land Bürgergeld beziehen müssen?

Nur verbaler Durchfall der Union wird es nicht lösen. Wir sind so lost, wenn dass die einzige Opposition neben der Afd in unserem Land ist.

As entertaining as he was in "Drive to Survive" and interviews, Steiner's handling of drivers and lack of leadership were the main issues for Haas. While he was the right fit for managing Gene's unambitious investment in F1, he wasn't the right guy for managing the F1 team tbh.

I think Mercedes might opt for a seasoned driver and place Kimi at Williams for a year or two.

  • My realistic picks for the seat are Sainz or Alonso.

  • My choice of hope would be Vettel.
