Seriously guys, stop talking nonsense. Posting stuff like that is like me claiming Red Bull is just a mid-tier team on the grid right now.😂
Let’s be real: Ferrari is easily a top two or three team here. No debate. Alonso is miles ahead of Button, and honestly, he should’ve been sitting in fourth during qualifying. Everything leading up to this race was just a total disaster for him and Ferrari’s questionable strategy.☕
Honestly, Alonso could drive that car with one hand tied behind his back. If they just gave him a halfway decent strategy, he’d be outclassing everyone on the grid no problem.☕
If those two hadn't completely choked during qualifying, Ferrari would have a guaranteed podium right now.😉
They could've cruised through Q1 on hard tires without breaking a sweat. And since Hamilton braked like an absolute amateur again and absolutely trashed his tires in Q3, Alonso easily could've grabbed a podium spot.
Plus, Ferrari struggles a bit during qualifying, but they absolutely kill it on race day. It’s also hilarious that you idiots still don't get it—qualifying isn't about going full throttle just to grab a pole position if it ruins your entire race strategy. Stop wrecking your chances before the lights even go out.
If you put a driver like Alonso in a car this bad, but let him start 17 spots back on a fresh set of tires, he could probably scrape a podium if he drives a perfect race. No mistakes, just pure grit.😉
Since Heidfeld got booted before qualifying, he totally missed his shot. He could've easily snatched 12th or 13th, and honestly, with three new sets of tires, he might have even pulled off a win. Plus, if he had started 15th and somehow landed on the podium? Fans would've absolutely lost their minds. Total delirium.
Totally agree. Ferrari is basically like last year's McLaren—terrible in qualifying, but solid once the race starts.
If Ferrari actually had decent strategists, I think they’d be fighting McLaren for podiums, but with their current crew? Doubtful. You saw it in Austin when they copied Red Bull's move and snagged a podium.
