Grand Prix thread GULF AIR BAHRAIN GRAND PRIX 2024 - Quali Friday

Thought this was worth a reference point.

It shows a little bit about where the setups are - perhaps Aston, McLaren and Merc are higher downforce- will be intriguing to see if that helps them protect their tyres and whether any one of them can go one stop and pinch a win or podium from under a two stoppers nose!

 

Everyone starting on softs! That wont make things interesting will it!

 

Verstappen already out of DRS range.

 

Let's see how long Ferrari can stay close.

 

please remove the last 3 words

 

nice one george and lando

 

…err…

 

I'll get my coat.

 

ferrari struggling mass8vely.

 

Bottas is so useless, what a waste of the Mercedes seat he was when he was there.

 

Red Bulls front wing isn't half flexing! Not seen anyone else's yet.

 

oh great drs train.

 

I'm feeling quite depressed with all this.

 

All as feared I'm afraid. Red Bull have an 8 tenths per lap advantage in race trim

 

Aside from the poor car, Leclerc is having a shocker. How many times does he want to fall off the road at turn 10?

 

the second they fell off russell perez walk by.

Russell has no tires. flying back now from verstappen.

Once perez gets drs he should sail by russell but can he then break the tow and make this and easy 1/2 and make us all turn off.

 

Budget restrictions mean that the only bakes Ferrari had left for Charlie were pulled off an old 1983 308 that they had out back.

 

Well that's the 1/2 done.

 

The worst thing about all this is that we have 24 of these **** shows to get through.

 

Should be used to it, been like this since 2014, was Mercedes then.
