They are saying it's not power but potentially the fuel pump. We will see if the other teams have similar issues. Last week looked like a shit show for Red Bull. lol
The internets were not kind to Hamiltons poor qualifying performance yesterday.
So sad for Perez. Really wanted to see him in 1 spot. Great racing though.
Hamilton will get little air time if he’s not performing (thank goodness). Loved the action with Ocon and Alonso and the finishing laps for the close guys. Great race with close action and tactics while driving with DRS. Can’t wait till we are off the street type circuits.
I love speed so have been an F1 fan for many, many years but agree it's become all about the cars. Guilty of snobbery, I never bothered to give IndyCar a look believing it to be simply turning left for 2 hrs but I gave the Indy 500 a go when Fernando Alobso entered it and I was blown away! Insane speed and wow, those corners cause some spectacular crashes! I immediately followed the rest of the season and every season since. Variety is great with ovals, street circuits and tracks plus the main attraction...no one car is technologically superior so 8ts all about driver skill, the way it should be.
I believe Alpine's main sponsor (BWT) uses pink packaging on their products so it's probably a tie in with that.
Glad to see Max back on the top step of the podium. The battle between him and Leclerc should be good this season. I'm sure Mercedes are putting all their financial muscle and talent into finding a solution to their current problems. If they get it right then their unique 'no sidepod' design could be really fast.
I believe the pink on the Alpine is temporary. They will soon be mostly blue with some pink shortly.
This car (below) is what got me into F1. Not the best car of the season, but perhaps the prettiest ever. In my opinion.

My top 3 are the McLaren MP4/4 that Senna won the title in.
The Ferrari 641 from 1990
And the Williams FW14 that Mansell & Riccardo Patrese drove
The cars were much more beautiful in the 1980's and 1990's.
Interesting to see the changes in bodies over the years.
Flatfish- what year and track, please?!

1990. Maybe 1989.
Photo found on google.
Track unknown but it could be during test because there is some black contraption growing out of the sidepod. Hilly circuit wherever it is. Plus the rain. My best guess would be Belgium.
F1 needs to bring back the V10.
This video explains it all. Skip forward to 1 min 40 and crank the volume up.

Amazing! Thanks. (I am a newbie to F-1)
How many drivers have hearing impairment now?
Solo 1995 Ferrari V-12- clip. Noise starts about 35. Here it is, great sound.

I always loved Michael Schumacher's Benneton from his rookie year.
And the 2001-ish era for Jordan was also lovely. Eddie Jordan, thats when F1 still had characters!
