We need a lot of rain ASAP !

Max didn't even look as if he was trying that hard! It was so satisfying just watching him reel the vaders in 'nice and easy' and then the twitching viking getting mugged by HAM. Wolff was looking like a student who just got 200 lines,'I must smile more in class'.

if DAS is not activated there is no difference with a car with no DAS in suspension geometrywise.. only difference can be the drivers setup thats all.. besides McLaren had heavy blisters as well.. besides vol2 blisters were not only on front tires, rears as well.. there is no DAS on the back..

besides vol3 i told you mate things can change fast and it changed..
though im not sure how much.. things ll be much better in Spain for Merc's..

His last pitstop in Silverstone 1 was not necessary . Imagine ...

Mate .So ,"You" tested DAS in extreme heat ?

As far as I know , is the whole Merc is build around DAS .
Pretty much everything is changed . They had to rebuild the whole (higher) rear axle , chassis platform , suspension , and as for the balance the entire weight distribution !
By this , the whole geometry of the Merc is completely changed .
The aero-package had to follow with more downforce ...

All this in combination with the heat ,1022 ponies and in Party-Mode 1172 ponies .
And finally as you could see they run with a "rubber crusher machine" in the heat !

BTW..Spain will be even worse . As I already told you that the cooling of the RB16's PU is improved to avoid power loss in the heat .

Mate . Let us really hope for more exciting races like we saw yesterday

Silverstone 1 was so close to victory for Max, HAM took it with half a lap puncture with 5 seconds to spare but his luck can't be in all the time.

RB took the dark side down . They will be very nervous in Spain !
While MAX is filled with self-confidence ...

RB figured , and finally they fixed the balance of the RB16 .
Even Albon said : Now the car feels great.
Hope that Albon is ready now , to help MAX with some race strategy....

Mate .Everything in the F1 world is top-secret .Let me think ...It was strawberry juice !
Toto would never tell his (hidden) secrets for free...He sold some of them to the Pink Mercs

Schumacher drove 5 years with the first "Traction Control" , while the other teams didn't even knew the meaning of the word !
Of course MS was the best rain driver of the field ...

I too am hoping that Alb will be more positive and help Max out at Barcelona. Dealing with two vaders can be a job even for Max in some circumstances.

Thanks to Max for making it worthwhile to tune in. What a talent. I haven't browsed all 30 pages of this thread, apologies if repost



Footage in that vid prompted me to find this one. Always fun to watch an F1 talent around a circuit you've driven.

Floridian? I went there last year in one of PCA club events and only then I appreciated how fast race cars are when LMP1 can do it in 1'43"something and I did it in 4'11" (although I did it in an old 911 &#129322. But that video is seriously cool.

Not officially, but spend some time and try to hit Sebring as much as possible.
