Anyone who knows the basics of F1 should know this. Limited to 3/4 engines per season, yea that's a guarantee they are going to be ran at full power.

Great to see Williams and specifically Albon doing better. It's down to money. The limit on the number of engines plays a big part, long gone are the days of engines just for qualy and just dropping in a new one when it suited.
Those were the days!
You've also got the general cost cap holding teams back. To level things up they need to impose bigger restrictions on the winning teams.
Spot on. Whilst the cost cap is clearly working for the mid-field, it isnt for the teams at the front.
So Damon is saying Merc have a winning car for '24 and Rosberg says Norris is on the move in '24 rather than seeing his contract out.
Similar things were said about last years Merc..
I don't think I'd like him at RB, unless Max clears off he's never going to be #1. Pains me to say it but I don't think he's as good as Max
The drinks company is his team though. The car is built to exploit boy wonders abilities, and does so stunningly well. Doesn't make his team mates with different driving styles look so great though. Would he beat Norris in last years McLaren? Maybe, but it would be very close. Which one would prevail in a Haas i wonder?
Norris, Russell and boy wonder are the future of F1. Its just a great shame that the former 2 haven't been given the machinery they deserve to show their talents. Leclerc has potential, but he throws it in the wall waaaay to often.
Only driver who ever looked like going full power round Monaco was Senna in my opinion.seven wrote: ↑Wed Sep 06, 2023 10:15 amAnyone who knows the basics of F1 should know this. Limited to 3/4 engines per season, yea that's a guarantee they are going to be ran at full power.
100kg of fuel per race, definitely guaranteed to be ran at full power.
'Lift and coast'.
Fastest race laps 3-10 seconds slower than qualifying laps(on the same engine map setting BTW)-yes there can be a tyre usage deficit, but that can be worked out by the lap time difference.
Monaco-is it even possible to do Monaco on full power?
That makes no sense, given what an F1 car is capable of and the nature of the circuit no driver has ever gone at anything like full power at Monaco, even Senna with his 6 (?) wins there, they'd be just flying off the circuit everywhere. If you mean using the maximum amount of power possible for the circuit then, yes, probably.Red-Eye-Knight wrote: ↑Wed Sep 06, 2023 5:23 pmOnly driver who ever looked like going full power round Monaco was Senna in my opinion.seven wrote: ↑Wed Sep 06, 2023 10:15 amAnyone who knows the basics of F1 should know this.

I do like the Mclaren livery, a tad too busy maybe but very nice indeed.
