Aside from Max, I’m really looking forward to an interesting and mixed podium.

Also not sure how Ferrari are you to bottle it this year but I’m thinking engine or gearbox failure for Leclerc

Ferrari doing anything they can to get the Clerc ahead of Sainz only to Sainz to overtake him twice already.

Asymmetrical brake balance for Leclerc is a new one, I had a car like that once but it was a 30 year old piece of junk E30 that hadn’t been maintained since the Clinton administration at the time

Leclerc is struggling with the brakes, that's what was reported from the Ferrari pit. It's not normal to see him lock up and miss the apex so often. Saiz is racing a great GP

Is this 2023 all over? I think it is.

Let's hope not, but I think everybody is afraid to see Max being alone at the top.
Nothing really changed since last year except Alpine & Sainz.

Yea apparently there was a massive disparity between left and right front brake temps, and the bias was such that on the clockwise circuit he was in trouble for most corners. That's a hell of a problem to race on with.

Time for Alipine to get Flavio back:whipped:.
French management is a joke. I know because I also work for a French owned company and we have similar issues of constant senior turnover. I've been through 4 North American CEO's and 5 North American CFO's in less than 7 years.

Yea it feels like at a certain point they’re going to run out of people to fire. Both Fernando and Oscar really dodged a bullet there by getting out while the getting was good.

Fernando & Oscar would have be the best line-up but off course they made a better choice.
French press says that they understand the concept and will come with a lot of improvements in the next races and try to have the same evolution than MCL last year. I don't really believe it.

It appears Red Bull has suspended the employee who made the complaint against Christian Horner. Given how opaque the whole situation is, and in light of the leaks, not exactly the most elegant way to handle it. The day before international women’s day too which is rather rough timing.

Agree it's clumsy timing but they must have an iron clad case to do this given how much scrutiny is on it. Employee rights are enshrined in UK law so they must be highly confident they can back this action in a tribunal. Looking more and more like Horner will survive this I think.
