My poor Ferrari team. Car can't keep its tires alive even at 75% pace.

The car literally does nothing particularly well. Eats tires, lack downforce, isn't very fast in a straight line, apparently extremely difficult to drive, and drivers don't know how its going to react to any changes in fuel/tires in the race.

At least Mercedes had the advantage of being kind on its tires since last year. Just didn't have the rest of the package. Will be interesting to see if it continues to be this quick as it was fast in Spain last year even with the OG W13 design.

Ferrari this time last year compared to now is mind-boggling. Charles has got to be thinking of bailing, but where to?...

Nowhere to go, only logical place would be Aston Martin but Lance got a job for life

He can't go anywhere. Lewis clearly hasn't lost a step. George will extend here shortly. Red Bull could dump Checo, but Max would veto a Leclerc partnership immediately. They'd rather have Yuki or better yet, Lando or Piastri anyway. And like @nyknick said, Lance is locked in. Alonso will won't retire until 2030 or Lewis retires whichever comes first.

Might as well stay and hope Ferrari finds its way.

Getting rid of Binotto was a mistake. I'll maintain that for ages. You don't get rid of the guy with his technical ability and 25 years of experience in the company.

This Lance Stroll stuff gotta be coming to a head soon. I know that’s his son, but man got a car that could compete for the title and junior is slumming it.

MFs will trip over themselves to argue otherwise.

Verstappen in major Hamilton claim: 'People will start hating me'

The Red Bull driver has put himself and Fernando Alonso above the seven-time champion with regard to a specific area of F1.

Explaining how drivers are able to compute outside influences whilst driving, Verstappen said: "You are talking to the engineer but I am also hearing a pit stop by a Ferrari car. I asked, ‘Did they box? I heard that on the radio.’

Verstappen is a puppet, he would do best to keep in mouth limited in thge medias, I see him being exposed for some odious ideologies down the line.

Something something car, something something competition, something he should go to a different team and win a championship . fukk Max and everyone who supports him.

Your car being at least second per lap faster allows you the luxury of tuning into everything else going on. He didn't have this magical ability when Renault was supplying RBs engines.

Lol don't worry about Max, he has a love in with Alonso because he knows he isn't a threat.

Let that man cook. Ignorance and pride comes before a fall.

At least Vettel had the self awareness to tell the team the run won't last forever.

Ofc hed said that. Alonso is not a threat to his legacy

If you run with the narratives they like to put out, it's even worse for them. Y'all got trounced by a man that supposedly doesn't have extra mental capacity, doesn't understand the technical side, and whatever other argument to denigrate Hamilton... so what does that say about your skill? Once is a surprise, twice is a coincidence, three times is a pattern. 7 times?

But like I said, it's about time to turn the arguments back on Verstappen. He's never had a teammate that was a legitimate challenge , his championships came in dominant cars , let's see him go to a midfield team and win a championship , put anyone in that car and they'll win too .
