It seems now that Merc won't have a new smaller rear wing after all at AP compounding their porpoising problem, yet RBR will be having an updated r/wing for their sorted chassis.

Excitement is growing as the Porsche and Audi F1 decisions are just around the corner with the big guns at meeting being held.

The Russell boy today :
•I already threw the rag ,to fix the porpoising the W13 has to be re-designed completely !

I'm not sure if this is allowed by the FIA at this stage in the season ?

To my understanding - the Audi McLaren union will ultimately terminate the prior BMW agreements. Which makes sense, I can't imagine modern BMW offering anything of the same level as Audi for F1 or their road cars unless they start making motorcycles which luckily BMW still knows how to make.

But this will really push ferrari further ahead of their rivals, and I heard they have more power left untapped, they're just waiting to ensure their engine is reliable. If this is really true redbull will be left in the dust because that's the only thing they have on ferrari right now and merc will have no chance.
Mate . Just be careful what you are wishing for ...

I just read that the RB18 is already 7.5 KG lighter , and it comes with a complete new rear wing upgrade !

In other words : Next weekend the RB18 will be 0.2/0.3 sec. faster ...

Let's smash Toto's headset ! Again...

I don't know what I'm excited for more, RedBull Porsche/McLaren Audi or the GP this weekend. Glad I get to watch it at 1AM vs waking up early on a lazy sunday.

I grew up in Charlotte and was the odd man out because I watched F1. All they would say to me is "is that the odd racing series that runs at 6am and the cars break going over curbs". One more reason I moved.

Race director - rules are rules

Tightening down on rules (not spellcheck).

Last race director notes required drivers to wear race suits during media appearances. Now jewelry, body piercings must be removed.

Careful what you push the FIA for, you might just get it.

Some drivers should arrive early to Albert Park to remove prohibited items.

The Ferrari will likely be lighter too, and if gets more power I'm not sure how any competitors will keep up.
