Or they are pumping George’s tires

or an “engine wanted”

It was above the rim Jerry!

What if he leaves because Red Bull was trying to cover it up last year?

They have changed the order of sprint weekend for 2024. No confirmation on if they will move parc ferme but seems more doable now with the main quali taking place after the sprint race

Think the biggest issue with sprint for me was the parc ferme happening after one practice session. I think they should try letting teams change the setup based on data gathered in the sprint

So how does this work with budgets, wind tunnel time, and regulations? Does the FIA send people ahead of entry to monitor things?

Be Right Back

Might be onto something there hehe

From early in the season:

“ The Mercedes specification is bulkier in the area closest to the floor, which limits airflow through the AMR23’s diffuser. This area is designed for a car with ultra-compact bodywork like the W14, as seen with the Mercedes ‘zeropods.’

Having a less efficient diffuser means the AMR23 needs more rear wing to compensate, which generates more drag.”

It’s probably because they are hoping the purchaser is using a spreadsheet going “x cents per sheet” and this is rigged to jump to the top of that sort order

I believe they only ran medium tires

All contingent on repairs and the track has to open to regular traffic at 4am local time.

And bots are already better than us at these tests. Might be better to assume if someone solves too quickly they are a bot. Sorry Mensa peeps

Let me bust out my tiny violin.

Williams left a car jack unattended right at the edge of their pit box and Tsunoda clipped it. So Williams would be at fault there I believe

No worries. It was the way you thought last year. They changed the format this year.

Sprint shootout (qualifying) is saturday morning before the sprint. This graphic is Sunday’s GP

Now I want to see Ricciardo as Hamilton’s physio/assistant for the rest of the year
