Same thing happened in 2019 with Ferrari at Monza.

It is a simple delta number, but the stewards aren't going to penalize Ferrari in Monza.

The first two chicanes suck, but the Lesmos curves, Variante Ascari, and Parabolica are all awesome and super fun to drive.

The first chicane at Monza is probably the worst corner in all of F1. I hate it.

They should get rid of it.

Lou probably agrees after Max parked on top of him a while back.

If they could do lap one without the chicane then every lap after with it.

That’s the main one. I just can’t keep up while simultaneously hitting the brakes hard enough to not rear-end the field.

The solution, just braking early, is easy and obvious enough but it really is tough to get used to.

If you're not gonna pass the car in front of you, just let off the gas wayyyyyy early, and it'll be easier to manage the last second braking at the chicane without losing any ground.

I haven’t followed f1 in years — too boring. Has Super Max won it all yet?

Was arrested in France coming back last week. Broke some rules driving. He is expected to do 10 years in prison and lose his super license.

Shame. The video got a bunch of social media likes though.

I just want to know, "how did Hamilton set a record lap at Monza that's almost 3 seconds faster than today's qualifying?"

How does Ferrari frick it up tomorrow?

Car implodes?
Pit stop frickery?
Crash?

How long before Max is in 1st? First turn? Or 3rd lap?

I'll go 3rd lap. By lap 5 he'll have the 1+ second lead, and Ferrari won't see him again.

Here's to hoping I'm horribly wrong.

First/Second turn. He goes deep late on the brakes and forces Sainz wide onto the turn 2 kerb.

After the climate guilt update, a lesson: CO2 makes plants grow, that feed the world and make oxygen.

F1 playing social guilt game on carbon idiots this morning.

They better not completely abort the start and do some sort of yellow flag single file start or some bs.
