What are the odds we see two-wide through eau rouge (not on lap 1)?

Ferrari are doing their part to save this season and next from boring Mercedes domination.

“According to AutoRacer, Brackley's original plan was to halt development of the W17 during the summer break and throw the entire budget at the 2027 W18. Maranello's recovery buried that idea; development continues after the break, with a second major package in production.

The numbers that forced this change: 8 tenths of cumulative gain from the SF-26 between aerodynamic packages, ADUO 1, software, and energy management. We've scored two wins and still have the ADUO 2 token up our sleeve.”

Something to do with the battery. Either the battery or a system related to it.

Sadly, this race track is being taken away as a year my race in spite of it being a fan and driver favorite

If no other practice or qualifying session happen he would be on pole.

More battery and less down force equals slower cars

Hopefully this is a fine for the team and not a grid place penalty for the drivers.

Usually not a driver penalty unless the driver gained an advantage. Will most likely be fine.

I missed FP1 and FP2. Can't tell from the results if any driver or any team is trending towards Sunday dominance. For those who watched the practices, are you getting any good vibes from any driver or team?

Redbull looked strong until it was time to do practice starts. Hadjar starting from pitlane also.

McLaren seem to be working themselves back into form.

Good but not great day for Ferrari. Losing too much time on the straights.

Mercedes looked strong again. Kimi over a second ahead of George.
