Still loots of work to be done. We are on the good path

So that's 2 wins for Max in a day.....many hours put in in both races.
It's not how start but how you finish.
Imola to Monaco great idea F1...
Forza Ferrari
Jumpy on the gun a bit there mate. The 2021 McLaren was also very strong in Imola. Imola isn't really a track where aero makes the difference, it's the efficiency that gives you all the lap times. Pretty sure last year's SF-23 would've been quite competitive here, and it wasn't a good car at all.
I can see it , 2025 championship battle
No it's not coming yet
Mclaren on a roll here. They got the top speed, aero, tyre warm up issues & tyre deg under control now & are challenging RB now.
Ferrari need to step up a bit. Good that gap is under 9sec. But still 3rd fastest car.
The team and Lec , are working and start to create something special , AND THEN EVERYTHING COLLAPSES for 1 reason or another !!!!!
WHEN IS THIS GONNA STOP !!!!!!!!!
FERRARI FOR EVER !!!!!!!
And our Charles is back in P2 WDC , one positive thing today
No it's not coming yet
At the end of the day Charles finished 7 seconds behind Max and he's now P2 in the championship. Ferrari also sitting comfortably P2 in the championship as well.
Ferrari needs to gain back the top speed advantage. This car has plenty of downforce, but it is a bit slower on the straights.
Not sure how does Monaco track bodes well SF-24.
But this track is very boring & upcoming track too no overtakes. All in all not a good month being a F1 fan.
Next race means nothing wouldnt use it as a benchmark for anything Monaco is a weird track
Next race is our chance to see if we can fix the warm up issue once again in Quali with setups
No it's not coming yet
Not only the top speed ( witch is an issue) . Today we where ok(ish) till that mistake from Lec. So did that cost him something more on the car ( a damage) or we run out of tires. This are 2 questions that hurts . 1st if it is of that mystake ,then Lec has to finally put his head in line bacause this is unacceptable for a driver that wants to become a world champion . Has was push ok but not as much as Lando in end and Lec managed to lost it. If it was for tires then we have problem because to bring an update that solves 1 issue but creat another one ,isn't an upgrade .
All in all i was happy with Lec's race (both him and the car) till that mystake. But once again we are leaving we our haed down !!!
FERRARI FOR EVER !!!!!!!
What a boring race at the front. Further back it was a little more spicey. 3rd and 5th was the best we could get to-day amid hopes from Friday's running.
Monaco next.....will Charles have some luck here? it's about time he had a home win.
Forza Jules
This was Charles's only mistake in the whole weekend and it didn't cost him anything. That McLaren was very fast in the first sector, even with DRS he couldn't get close to Norris, so he was pushing extra hard in the corners.
Plenty of drivers made mistakes throughout the whole weekend, including Max and Norris.
The SF24 has the aero and traction prowess of the F1-75, now it needs to get back its predecessor's efficiency. Combining both those characteristics would made this car very fast. And I'm sure Ferrari knows these limitations and working hard to fix them.
The only thing worrying me is that Carlos does not seem at all at easy with this evolution of the car.
