You are not reading cause i wrote "last stint", where they had same tyres and turned engine little bit more than conservative . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's not the reason. Ferrari were "fat with fuel" on that last stint, If you followed trackside observations Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are comparable to RBR. So yes, great improvement. And they raked up over 100 laps, as all teams did. Lets hope they can keep it up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not surprised, I'm sure many good people walked away, first they lost a title sponsor, then they had 3 rotten years with Honda, they have lost hunderds of millions in revenues, it's only natural that they have lost talent, what they did at that pit stop doesn't happen even in GP3, it's not a matter of lack of practice, it's a matter of lack of talent/ability Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

radical-one 0 Report post Posted March 9, 2018 23 hours ago, Sakae said: Boullier should work for a French team instead, where people will actually not ignore him. Right now he is there only when they need someone to take a blame for failures, but I doubt he has any say how team is being run. That's a serious issue. I know it is still early to say but Mclaren doesn't look like they are in contention again this year. Unluckily for their management, they cannot point the finger towards Honda any loner. Particularly when Torro Rosso is racking up all those laps. Some high ranking officials at Mclaren will get axed by the end of the season, including a SPANIARD....

Sakae 0 Report post Posted March 9, 2018 Alonso has parked the McLaren - again. I wonder if he got a Memo that Honda actually left McLaren, thus old tricks must be repainted with new ones. Poor guy, he can't get a break. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lipstick79 0 Report post Posted March 10, 2018 If the comments ARE to be believed. Boullier indicates THAT it is NOT JUST a PU supply change, The design guys in Woking HAVE come up with SOMETHING / a NEW philosophy. I had hoped that they would, I REALLY liked the third pedal idea until, FIA BANNED it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
