F1 2019 season discussion and chat.

So hang on... Ferrari pulls team orders on LeClerc... Then leaves him out on old tyres whilst Verstappen is catching at 2sec per lap, just so that Vettel can get 1 DRS run from LeClerc in an attempt to catch Bottas.

Then Vettel can't catch Bottas anyway, and LeClerc is relegated to 5th because of utter stupidity on the part of Ferrari.

I think that Ferrari needs to start treating LeClerc and Vettel as equals if they are to stand any chance in the constructors.

Great drives from Ricciardo, Perez and my driver of the day, Albon.

Edit: Also nice to see Gasly where he should be.

I think Ferrari is just confused by the Sponsorship.
They read "mission winnow" as "mission minnow" so are trying to become a little fish in a big pond.

I really think ferrari has lost the plot when it comes to strategy, the new guy with the where's Wally glasses doesn't seem much higher on the intelligence totem pool. If LeClerc keeps driving like this he is going to become the number 1 driver.

As for those Ferrari supporters who thought Bottas got a bum deal last year...

Leclerc will probably be wishing Ferrari would treat him like Merc did Bottas last year .

Ferrari really are stupid...

That stacked pit stop just summed up Merc’s weekend.

Ferrari will get it right but they need to stop this team order business. Le Clerc runs a stronger race craft than Vettel. He showed it constantly in F2. Vettel is over the hill. He should have retired like that other German side-mouthpiece Rosberg.

Read the comments on F1's FB page and it seems like everyone agrees what a boring track China is. Its so boring that even Bottas didn't stand a chance to have a go back at Hamilton during the race.

Thank you. Wonder if they can fix Seb’s car in time for quali after he finds the wall in FP2

Well it rained in Bahrain so it could rain in Azerbaijan

Rain not required, just the tears of the Tifosi.
