    Re: 019 Spanish F1 Grand Prix in Barcelona

    I don't buy it that they make Leclerc deliberately slower than Vettel, however, they don't seem to be on top of things... they are reacting rather than acting. Where Mercedes and Red Bull are quick to respond to changing circumstances, it looks like Ferrari is doubting, thinking "what if", etc. Then when they finally decide, all the potential advantage is gone already.

    I doubt that they try to slow down Leclerc, too. But why are they doing so stupid things?

    Why hard tires? More than 1 sec slower - so in 22 rounds you would lose one extra stop???

    Hard to think they do it deliberately but .... what would the board think if the 3 million investment is faster then the crazy 30 million one  That is enough to push to make purposeful stupid decisions .....

    The board would say - what a great deal with Leclerc - bravo! So they look meanwhile one of the most stupid teams.

    The farmer:

    I guess I enjoy it more because I drive such a car myself and know about ten of the drivers. On Telly it looks easy, but I know how hard the push these cars and how hard it is to drive it on the limit. wink

     

    And the jump in skills of the drivers between Super Cup and Carrera Cup and Sport Cup is huge.

    Farmer is around above mid pack, about 4 seconds off the top Sport Cup driver, that top Sport Cup driver will be about mid pack to the Carrera Cup and that top Carrera Cup driver will be mid pack in the Super Cup.

    Correction, I was about 3-4 second behind the top super cup guys in ME this winter. But that is 3-4 tough (impossible for me?) seconds to find..yes
