#F1 Season 2022-2025 Car Development Recap 🏁 The Main Thread 🏁 In this thread, all 10 teams will be covered and all 40 cars during these 4 seasons will be covered To make it an orderly experience for everyone, I will be posting the main Recap Posts for every team in this…

#F1 #BelgianGP 2025 🟧/🟥 Sprint Qualy to Race pace (dry) gap Piastri's blistering SQ3 lap left Leclerc at a whopping 0.77s behind In today's race, Leclerc was about 16.2s behind Piastri after first lap on Mediums and finished 20.2s behind overall. In dry, Piastri was 0.13s a…

In addition to Red Bull, #Williams also brought a significant upgrade package to #BelgiumGP . The new shark-inlets with their open mouths are particularly interesting. Comparisons for @wearetherace
🚨| OFFICIAL: Red Bull's advisor Helmut Marko confirms Max Verstappen will drive for RBR in 2026. "Yes, I can confirm that Max Verstappen will drive for Red Bull in 2026" #F1
IMO, this illustrates one of the justifying reasons for the exposed corner second element rear wing designs that everyone has now. The previous rolled tip design created a bit of a messy corner vortex that just impeded upwash and lateral expansion leading to full span load for…

What's visually the most striking is that only the central section of V-wing on Hamilton's car looks the most different. Outboard span is fairly similar in AoA and camber, while both wings have trimmed DRS flaps and flap tips are very similar in geometry as well Front wing flaps…
Another record lap beaten this year It's actually amazing how these cars are generating these record lap times, with 50+ kg more on board and stiffer suspension setup Still, on mixed tracks it's more often about gaining precious lap time in high-speed and with ever-smaller…
It finally happened: the W11, the fastest #F1 car ever designed, was beaten! 🤯 PIA beat its laptime by 0.742s ✅ ⬛️W11 (2020): quicker mostly in the medium-speed corners and changes of direction (54kg lighter) 🟧MCL38: unmatched aero efficiency thanks to ground effect! Way…
New facilities in Hungary, as well as resurfaced main straight A unique venue with unique atmosphere in Hungary 😎
Epic change... #hungaroring #F1Hungary #HungarianGP #HungarianGP40 #F1 #F175
On July 28, Lewis Hamilton won his first race with Mercedes (Hungary 2013) On July 28, Lewis Hamilton won his last race with Mercedes (Spa 2024)
😵💫 This is now the first time since 2019 (Russia-Japan-Mexico) that Max Verstappen has gone 3 straight races without being on the podium. Who would have thought this would have happened in this set of regulations...
If the decision will be made to delay the race and wait until clearer conditions, then teams should be allowed the time and opportunity to react by changing their setups. I am all for safety, but nowadays it’s nearly impossible to predict the decisions that will be made based off…
Why even set your car up for rain if the FIA will just wait for the rain to pass and the track to dry up before running?
🟧 McLarens kept their advantage after the 1st stint on Inters, gained 4-5s on Leclerc in the remaining 30-something laps. Class of their own in the wet 🟥 Leclerc maximised his weekend and somehow kept Verstappen behind in that 1st stint. Car looked very loose more than once,…

If I had a nickel for every time a Williams outqualified Mercedes at Spa in recent years, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice. Alex Albon 🤝 George Russell
Not a surprise, but some of the performance and especially yesterday's Sprint Pole suggest to me that McLaren may have a) used the new floor tested in Silverstone and b) taken a step forward with it - despite Stella indicating earlier that they may not use it due to Sprint format…

Trully a maximised result, even though this was realistically a P4 without Verstappen's mistake Good result overall, Ferrari made big changes with new rear end and, after spending 12 weekends driving the car in a very wrong way to get the most out of it - both drivers will take…

Think that was maybe a pole lost for Verstappen with that slide out of La Source, will look at the data available later to check. My guess is 2 tenths lost there at least, that traction zone goes all the way through Eau Rouge and Radillion, down the Kemmel and that's a loooot of…
