F1 2023 Season

Great stuff from Lawson considering. Definitely a big danger for Daniel.

Albon deserves a fast seat. Maybe strolls?
 
It will be fun if Ferrari wins pole and gets 3 place fine :lol:

But then Max isn't even that much behind and he made a mistake.
 
Norris gave me hope last weekend, can Leclerc/Sainz do it this time though?
 
Where has Ferrari's improvements come from?

The car look painfully slow for past few weeks, what upgrades did they put in the car for this week?

This track is very specific, 70% of the lap is full throttle. They have configured the car to be very low drag , but that can work very well in one lap. RB still have advantage over in race pace due to tire deg.

Turned the engine up.

They can’t do this every race because their engine eats itself
 
Aye, but none in fp1 and hardly any in fp2! It's not difficult!
Whats difficult is to imagine that as an excuse for finishing 8 tenths behind his teammate on a track like this.
For reference thats the gap between 1st and 16th in Q1,

The lack of prep is not an acceptable reason when he had qualy simulations in Fp3 and finished a decent 11th. Its not like he's been dropped into the car at the last minute like Lawson FFS
 
Question is will Stroll Snr also pull out of F1 if his son leaves it? AM have Honda engines coming in 2026 so if Stroll Snr and AM pulled out then what happens?
Why would he pull out after investing a shitton of money in new factories etc? He might be a cnut but he is not dumb

If all he wanted was for his son to get a seat, he could just buy one from Williams/Haas. He bought a whole team because he genuinely loves the sport and wants to win. If Max says he wants to drive for AM with Alonso, Stroll would dump his son before the call even ends.
 
Yeah Stroll Sr gives his son a seat but he’s in it to build a championship winning team from scratch. Stroll jr winning races is a distant second.

He won’t ditch him for a Gasly or Ricciardo but Leclerc, Norris etc would be a different story
 
He wants his son to become World Champion, thats why hes in the sport. Lance isnt going to lose that seat to any driver on the grid.

He's improved the marker value of that team substancially. If he got bored and walked away he wouldnt lose any money.
