Normally I really like street circuits, but this is my least favorite one.
I like street circuits because of their usual bumpyness, and sometimes really slow corners, which demands a totally different setup, but this one is neither. My prediction: 1. VER 2. LEC 3. SAI 4. HAM 5. PER 6. GAS 7. RUS 8. KMAG 9. ALO 10. TSU

How many times was HAM let off inexplicably for misdemeanours which should have been punished or even more action taken, I don't suppose you have heard the saying 'What goes around comes around' if not then 'Even Steven's' should be known to you

Provided RB can solve their fuel issue (or whatever it is), I give VER a chance. LEC is just as VER a very very good qualifier which of course is very important on a street circuit, but maybe RB can give VER a tactical advantage during the race by letting Checo do some disturbing things (go box really late and slow down the red Ferrari train). So I put VER on #1 and PER a bit lower. I still rate RB tactically the best team. Last race Ferrari could only fence off RB during the undercuts because the car was better but every undercut VER won 4-6 seconds, and it forced LEC to use softs where maybe mediums would have been better if he would have continued his racepace undisturbed. But lets see and wait what happens, it's just a prediction. I'm also mostly curious if Mercedes is coming with a car that looks totally different within one week or if upgrades will take more time. 1st test session in barcelona they of course had a more conventional looking car.

Same here. As long as MB doesn't win, I'm good - but then again, just goes to show, even Ham being a great driver, cannot take a decent car and make it a winning car. Enjoy watching him in a car that isn't multiple standard deviations better than the next best car(s).

I don't see the RB competing with Ferrari at Jeddah even with higher trap speeds. Charles was a few tenths faster - the difference is pretty big. I think Max gets P2 just because he's a beast. I'd like to see Max in P1 but I'm not sure it will happen at Jeddah. I think Australia will be Red Bull's first win.
Folks are still underestimating Charles and Ferrari. They look exceptionally good right now - their main mission is to keep up with upgrades along side their competitors. |

He must do it in QF-3 by shaving walls like crazy ( remember last year ) If he can pull P1 in QF ..That's the only way to beat Ferrari on this rat-trap- track . And in the race ,then It's all about elbows out while he closes the doors .. Otherwise It's P1/P2 for Ferrari again with the World Champions Car ! Mercedes won't be there in the top-5

Literally proves nothing... Even if sainz out qualified Charles it doesn't factually prove they were on different engine modes.

Also; why would they purposely run 1 car de-tuned? Makes zero sense

Ferrari played with 2 cards : A King and a Ace ... IMHO. Nothing can stop Ferrari ! EDIT : Binotto => https://www.gpblog.com/en/news/10682...di-arabia.html

Charlie => Pulled away from MAX very easily : A gap from 3-5 sec. in 5 laps . Sainz => No way he was able to follow MAX . I've seen the whole race 3 times now ... The Ferrari power situation (distribution) was more than clear ! On the other hand : Where was Charlie last year ? And what showed Sainz last year ? Sainz wins next weekend ! This discussion is over ...

Car setup (drag) has a huge effect on speed. I can definitely see then trying two different car setups.
