It's a busy weekend for the teams. Let's hope we have a good one.

**elnano14** · 28th June 2024, 10:54

Seems like we are still struggling with car balance

**racingbradley** · 28th June 2024, 10:54

Traffic a problem for Charles as he gets blocked by Hulkenberg.

**racingbradley** · 28th June 2024, 11:12

It's time RB have a problem but it's on a Friday a good day if you are going to have one.

**racingbradley** · 28th June 2024, 11:17

RB got Max out really quickly. Now they all appear to be on long runs.

**racingbradley** · 28th June 2024, 11:29

Charles and Carlos put in good laps only to be beaten by Max 0.4 sec faster!!!!!

**elnano14** · 28th June 2024, 11:34

4 tenths on a very short track is too much...

**elnano14** · 28th June 2024, 11:35

Race pace looks fine, not much between us - McLaren - Mercedes and Red Bull, but man our quali pace is very bad

**PURE PASSION** · 28th June 2024, 11:36

Lets wait for Qualy but not looking good . I Supposedly we would do good here. We dont look like it right now. At least on a fast lap.
Does anyone saw our long stints compare to the others. I saw Norris 1.9.1 and Ham 1.9.3.

Yeh i saw it on Twitter. More or less the same for anyone i think.

**racingbradley** · 28th June 2024, 11:43

Let's stay positive. The top 4 teams are very close and I reckon it will be a lottery this weekend. Hopefully our race pace is good and the drivers are on top form.

**elnano14** · 28th June 2024, 11:44

This is the track you might not need pole but need to qualify as high possible due to the 3 DRS zones
If our cars qualifying between P5-P8, they will stuck in DRS train, if race pace is this close between teams, it will be a diaster

**ntukza** · 28th June 2024, 13:21

We seem slow. We've been overtaken by McLaren and Mercedes.

Maybe Alonso should just retire, he's 43 and getting out qualified by Stroll. Give a young driver his due chance because we got plenty waiting.

**FerrariF60** · 28th June 2024, 15:03

NO chance at pole me thinks....but then again we kind of were expecting that

unless our boys can deliver something SPECIAL in sq3

A weekend here and there where Alonso fails to get good set up, most of the times he is ahead of him. Probably Dan Fallows needs to retire

Alonso accumulated over 80% of AMRF1 points in 2023. Alonso is currently beating Stroll in the points standings for 2024.

He's doing fine at the moment compared to Stroll.

**tifosi1993** · 28th June 2024, 15:06

So one lap shootout for the sprint pole

I disagree, the AMR24 is bad this year. Even Newey has had some bad F1 cars. Give Fallows some time to redeem himself....IF he can.

He should always be ahead of someone like Stroll, the fact he's not and Stroll matching him quite frequently recently and beating him fair & square more often, tells me that Alonso's days are gone. Alonso had his glory, maybe it is time to move on and let another younger talent have his go.
