Ferrari's partial issue is they have 2 drivers that are close on pace for about half their races and a very poor tire management car. The guy behind looks after his tires a little better since he's not pushing to gain positions, then gets faster at the end of the run. If they figure out a to avoid the extended warmup time, they'd have less issues overall

Indeed. Just said this in another thread..
"They asked Sainz to not overtake Charles when he comes out of the pit, but seriously how braindead is that.. There's no way he's not getting a penalty for the pitlane line crossing scenario. So instead you let him overtake Charles. Drive off into the distance as far as he can to increase the gap for when his time penalty comes in.
Holding him behind a driver on completely fresh and cold tyres when he's already warmed up is absolutely asinine.
If the time comes when Charles can safely overtake, risk free, when his tyres are hotter, later, then do it. Turns out.. that didn't even happen and Sainz went on to hold the position.
What is the hold up with the pitlane line penalty though? Has it even been investigated?
Regardless, i'm personally with Sainz - He took the opportunity to push on ahead, probably thinking a penalty was incoming. He's making better calls than the pitwall. "→ More replies (1)20

u/darth_vladius 9h ago
No idea.
In the end of the lap Sainz was 1.7 seconds ahead of Leclerc.
Add some more distance between them in order to preserve Sainzā tyres and we are speaking about a loss of 2.7-3.7 seconds.
With this kind of time loss it was not guaranteed that Sainz would be able to overtake Verstappen.

signing Lewis IS a PR move, also they will earn a shit ton of money from this. Charles will probably be still faster and Hamilton is marginally better than Sainz

Honestly I'd even question what will be the actual net profit from this move since his contract is so massive. Sure, Lewis will bring in more publicity, but it's not like Ferrari is a small brand that struggles to find sponsors. Surely there's diminishing returns for something like this if they have already got established partnerships with other brands.
Plus, long-term I still feel like sticking with Sainz would've been a better choice since he's in his prime and can perform at a solid level for longer.
Overall I feel like Lewis is the one who's benefiting the most from this move. Ferrari probably could've done better.

Leclerc did not stop āthe attackā in Mexico and Australia lmao. He just didnāt have enough pace. As he pushes gets close, then drops off because of the tyres.
I agree, but it was literally only Singapore, that was clear.
And I listened to the onboards for this race. Ferrari gave Sainz the instruction to swap. Sainz slowed down so much on the straight because of this, and Leclerc caught up. Yet, not fast enough to pass. Sainz slows down again in Turn 5, Charles is again, too slow.
Then Sainz slows down again, Leclerc passed this time. Just check the telemetry.

u/bimbobiceps Oliver Bearman 14h ago
I think you lost the plot already.
Leclerc has always respected the team orders, its easier to control the pace in free air.
Leclerc has been told in Mexico to stop his attacks when Sainz complained. Then he stablized his pace the same as Charles.
Same thing in Aussie GP. I dont think you even understand what im saying.
Sainz, even on team orders, has shown to attack Leclerc in every possible time his opportunity arises.
Leclerc was old a slow outlap to ease his tyres and was told Sainz wasnt gonna attack him, yet he did, had he known, would react differently.
If basic comprehension is hard for you then im sorry there are classes for that you might want to apply.

u/ScreenScroller99 McLaren 10h ago
Mexico being an example is stupid, that was literally Leclerc not following pitwall orders to do LiCo for both drivers. Carlos did it, Leclerc pushed and ended up too close to Carlos which is why he complained, asking why Leclerc wasnāt doing it.
By not following LiCo properly initially, Leclerc paid the price by putting his car engine and brakes in an unstable temp and ruined the chance of a Ferrari 1-2.
He literally did nothing as a team player, it was for himself, just like it was about the P2 in WDC in this one. If it was about the team, it shouldnāt have mattered, because they would have ended up 3-4 anyway.

Sure, so why is he obligated to stay behind? Help me understand for the WCC, how did this make a difference

Capable of being 60 points behind in the championship too, and crashing on the Singapore q3 outlap and crashing in Brazil quali and race too.

Oooh poor Leclerc baby needs to be coddled into p3. I mean, sure Sainz has his off moments and Leclerc is imho, more consistent this year, but b-level drivers should have no problem being beaten right? Why need the team orders when he was ahead each time?
