@@erikvermolen8371 hes most over rated driver ever imo, genuinelly

[@MichaelEilers]

Lewis and Sainz are actually quite similar drivers and with similar attitudes. High precision, considered, VERY clean, take advantages when they find it but also hang back and conserve rather than overdriving. Also LeClerc and Hamilton are literally neighbors in Monaco. It’s going to work better than people expect.

I've heard people talk(race cafe,ziggo) that the inlets at the cockpit of the RB 20 in combination with the tunnels are a new form of the blowndiffuser. Does anyone got any idea about that or do we need a crash to confirm or deny.

[@RaptorV1USA]

I would think it could def. be much more a "blown wing" as they seem to be directing air from the tunnels and the areas between the shoulders and the central spine body work straight back to the beam wing.

[@frederickgent1918]

Unreal even karunapeidia doubts himself from time to time 😂😂

[@Coatsey007]

Maybe Fred and Leclerc feel that Hamilton might teach Charles a thing or two and make him more rounded to become the future, world, champion he could be.

[@matthewkerr1948]

Exactly my thought

[@dco1019]

lewis has never been a mentor, hes too single minded. Also never shaped the team to his liking and/or played the leaders role and many times in the car its clear that hes not a coherent part of the whole..often hes in opposition with the strat and openly doubting for example. Well, Charles could learn from that. but its only applicable if the Ferrari strat is suboptimal (and Ferrari is shaping up to be much improved in that area) its worth mentioning that lewis also often complained about winning strats (basically became a f1 meme)... anyway, truly doubt that lewis would or could learn charles anything... they are both great frontrunners when all is great with the car and poor compared to their own high level when there's adversity....

[@PazLeBon]

le clerc will school him im convinced

[@Topendz]

Would be very short sighted to favor George over Lewis this year. If they develop the car to suit George over Lewis this year imho that would be a mistake. Just my opinion

[@8020erwin]

Karun: mercedes have never had a first driver. Toto "Bottas you're the perfect wingmen"

[@djyaveen1681]

Bottas and Hamilton may have got the upgrades at the same time, but that occurred when there wasn't a budget cap. It's very difficult to see Mercedes not favouring Russell with things like upgrades, at the least.

[@DuaneElverum]

[@rensvanderploeg1945]

Why?

[@PazLeBon]

its one year cos hes going in a year lol

[@sam.victor470]

Yes, RedBull and Max Verstappen will pretty much win all the F1 races. They haven't gambled, they 'developed', to stay way ahead of other teams' developments. It's their era to dominate with their concept. Adrian Newey and his engineering design team are true genius in making their ideas actually work. Even some Mercedes' failed concepts were incorporated.

[@MichaelEilers]

Stop turning off Karun’s mic. He’s the only interesting person in the room.

[@8BitZ0mbie]

Ouch. I agree drivers perspectives are usually better, but take it easy

[@rensvanderploeg1945]

Why?

[@magicbuddha7243]

2024 will be a test for Lando if he is championship material, I guess, as Oscar is not a rookie anymore and silly season will start after the first half of this season. If I would be Toto, I would get Lando to Mercedes in 2025 instead of Ocon, Max, Fernando or Sainz.

[@SuperHellhawk]

If I’m honest I think it was proven last year that he isn’t championship material. Oscar outperformed him in critical races, still hasn’t won a race and looks reluctant to get into wheel to wheel combat with max etc. Last year was actually very eye opening to how the bulk of the former youngsters simply don’t have that quality

[@PazLeBon]

sod that, mclaren are a proper racing team with far more history than the mercs, he should try and win with them

The only way anyone is going to beat Max is to make him do what he doesn’t want to do. The opportunity to do that is only in the first few laps. Lando, Sergio and Charles dont do that.

[@rensvanderploeg1945]

Why?

[@SuperHellhawk]

100%, they are scared to do it and it’s testament to Max’s driving style. They know if they go wheel to wheel with him they will probably have a crash. That’s the facts of it and they are scared to take that risk

[@dankrafted]

why is anyone surprised at the changes Redbull have made?. they sewed up the season so early last year they could start developing this years car months before anyone else, even if the car was no quicker than last year, they'd still have a decent chance of winning.

[@orio_3]

If this is where Karuns quote came from about there being loads of "spreadsheets" to prove Sainz is as good as Leclerc, then tell me this, why did Leclerc still beat Sainz on points and podiums last year in arguably his worst season, by his own admission

[@suitandtie2251]

If he had more crashes and DNFs then he will end up with fewer points at the end of the season

[@orio_3]

@@suitandtie2251 make that point clearer if you can? I'm not sure what point you're trying to make

[@PazLeBon]

@@orio_3 his point is clear, le clerc had more dnfs with car problems

[@LeJimster]

15:33 - I've heard this said before that Ricciardo would happily accept second place to Max this time around. Like, nah.. He's seen a potential opportunity to get back into a championship winning car and he's thinking if he makes it back he can genuinely fight for a world title, I absolutely guarantee thats what he's thinking. Most F1 drivers believe (rightly or wrongly) that they can be a world champion in the right car even against Max.. They wouldn't be in the sport otherwise.

[@PazLeBon]

lmao hes a bottler, no way he wants to get schooled by max and look slow, its why he left teams before

[@joshn1678]

Normally Karun doesn't seem to like Hamilton, I liked seeing him excited to see him go to Ferrari and wanting him to bring Bono with him. I genuinely hope Bono goes with Lewis, he needs someone over in Ferrari other than Fred.

[@suitandtie2251]

He can't be Lewis' Mercedes race engineer in November 2024 and then be Lewis' Ferrari race engineer in March 2025. Pretty sure he will have to sit out at least a year if that were to ever happen.

[@saahil_xd]

Yes AND no. Bahrain has been around for 20 years now. The main reason why they are having that much drain cover issues is because of the suction created by the new groud effect cars. Year by year they are finding ways to put more downforce in the car to make it quicker, and they're also running the car a lot closer to the ground, hence the suction created...
