Ferrari is sliding lower and lower with each race, while competition is getting up, so hard to expect Leclerc back onto top spot

I would say quite impossible since he will get a penalty in the starting grid for tomorrow because of the engine problems so even if he magically manages to get Pole position today or better tonight in European time it will be impossible for him to win the race as he would start at least 10 positions back or maybe even last depending on the penalty as I don't know the details of it.This has made me to put for the first time Russell in that third place of the podium for the prediction of tomorrow race.

going for Verstappen on pole and win is an absolute must for me in this track.

agree, he is getting into winning strike, and pole position would set into position that he just needs to defend it until the end
seems as easy game, but you never know with engine or other failures

I just saw in the news of F1 that Leclerc will get grid penalty for changing the engine,so I think based also on the performance of Verstappen yesterday night in FP2 where he did get the first place and I think by saving a lot from the true performance of the car here,as Ferrari cannot be jus 0.01 slower in a super fast track like this one,going for Verstappen on pole and win is an absolute must for me in this track.Sure there are unpredictable things like crashing,power engine failure etc but so far Redbull has been a stable car so far.

@CLS63 Did Montoya not win but finish those races though? LeClerc I think just really really really unlucky with the engine crap. That surely has to change, but I don't think in time for next race.

I realized that made a mistake about the statistics I shared recently. I'm sorry for that. The true version of it is that Leclerc are going to share the same record if he doesn't win this race after winning the pole position. Montoya wasn't able to complete most of his races that he started from the pole position. In fact we can say that he shares the same fate with Leclerc.

Didn't realise Hamilton had an injury from the last race, strange the news didn't talk about it while I was reading, seems pretty significant if Ricciardo is to be believed, though others say he exaggerated it. I couldn't say either way but that posture was never going to be good for anyone long term.

We are leaving a really horrible weekend for Tifosi fans behind in Baku. Frankly, my pain doubled as I gave a place to Ferrari in my bets. There are still people among us who are happy at this weekend. Foremost among them is rdbase who won the yellow cap. Congratulations!

Here's a recap of this season's winners thus far:
1) Bahrain - CLS63
2) Saudi Arabia - CLS63
3) Australia - darxiaomi
4) Emilia Romagna - buwaytress
5) Miami - casperBGD
6) Spanish - casperBGD
7) Monaco - darbit,Mosala
8 ) Azerbaijan - rdbase
Thank you for the congratulations from you and @casperBGD @buwaytress too and yes it is a relief to get that monkey off your back while being in the pool.
Now I am among those leaders as well as you.

The excitement in F1 is still on by the Canadian GP this week. Even though having consecutive races is really good for us, the race lovers, it can be quite difficult for especially the teams. The Canadian GP has a track with full of straights and there aren't many turns. Because of this, I think that Red Bull would be powerful here. The practice sessions would give us an idea about this. By the way, I don't know if you've heard but Leclerc had to wait in the airport for some time because of missing the Canada flight.  Grin
I have fear for Lewis Hamilton even finishing this race because it is a well known fact that the track is very bumpy and did you see him coming out of his car after the last race? He looked in a whole lot of pain.
I don't think his back will be able to hold out on this track in Parc Jean-Drapeau for this weekend.

Yes obviusly Ferrari can win the constructor champions, but i see two main problems.

1- They realibity. A disaster for Ferrari team enginering itself. But with this we have a second problem derivated of this, Its the engine broken several times because they push to the maximum to not lose speed or horsepowers?. If this its true they have a really big trouble ahead.

2- I know its less and less probable with the pass of the races, but if Mercedes recoves his performance Ferrari can lose some points and be in more pressure in all races, and as we know Ferrari doesnt do good in high pressure situation.

I read an interesting statistical data related to Leclerc today. In Formula 1 history, there was only Montoya who couldn't win any race despite winning the pole position four times in a row. But now Leclerc is also in the same situation. We shouldn't forget that one of the pole positions that Leclerc and Ferrari wasted was Monaco GP too.

and regarding pool, CLS is on the top, but situation is heating for positions 2-5, all participants have their chance to came up with a reward, long season

There isn't a big gap between me and the people right behind me. And we aren't even in the middle of the season yet. It wouldn't be even surprising for me to finish the pool out of top 5.

Reputation first.

Ferrari will have a really difficult job at this track where 95% of the time you are driving full throttle,based on what we have seen in the previous races this track should clearly favor the Redbull team as they have the fastest top speed in the straights,if they manage another win or 1-2 win things will get difficult for any other team to recover and we risk to see a boring F1 season from this race and on but I hope to be wrong in this last prediction.

agree, Ferrari is under pressure, they had beautyful start of the season, but things are getting worst and worst for them, and Max difference at the top is rising round by round, while Red Bull showing better performance race to race

as it looks now, it is easier for Mercedes to fight for spot #2, than for Ferrari to be on the top in the end

and regarding pool, CLS is on the top, but situation is heating for positions 2-5, all participants have their chance to came up with a reward, long season

I wouldn't be so pessimist, in my opinion Ferrari can recover and fight for the world championship, only 33% of the total race has been done at the moment, so, luckely, there is also time to fight.

What bad luck for Leclerc anyway, today he has also lost the flight for Canada  Grin, hope that the best moments For ferrari will come really soon..

I really like have races in consecutive weeks.
And yes this its really tough for the teams in terms of logistics.

I heard one thing about the urban circuits, they are the worst for teams like Mercedes because track isnt so "flat" and this cause a lot more of porpoising.

This upcoming track is a crucial one for the fight for the title of F1 this year,especially for the drivers,Verstappen is leading comfortably from Leclerc at 34 points distance and a bit less compared to his team mate Perez.Ferrari will have a really difficult job at this track where 95% of the time you are driving full throttle,based on what we have seen in the previous races this track should clearly favor the Redbull team as they have the fastest top speed in the straights,if they manage another win or 1-2 win things will get difficult for any other team to recover and we risk to see a boring F1 season from this race and on but I hope to be wrong in this last prediction.

Was hard for me even to watch the highlights as I'm a massive Charles fan and this guy is having so much bad luck lately and I'm thinking how he finds the strength to move over after so many DNF when he didn't even make mistakes to compromise his races ... .

Ferrari should really find something and they should find a fix as soon as possible because the engine clearly doesn't work and you can't rely on it but both drivers from Ferrari changed so many parts on the cars that they might enter in penalty area on the end of the season so basically they kinda lost the title fight in Baku today.

RedBull did an amazing job with both drivers and Perez should be allowed to fight Max for title in the next year as he showed today once again that he is a team player and you can rely on him. Max drove without mistakes like he always does.

Mercedes ...well , I heard that Lewis will test a new floor of the car in this week and I'm curious if they will permanently fix the bounces of the car. Russel ? he could be a title contender with just a slightly better car so I hope Mercedes will find a way.

Nice job rd. Looks like we're spreading the yellow caps a bit.

+1
it is good to spread yellow caps, for all to get a chance on free bets

Red Bull won this one, and Max is getting closer to another title, but Mercedes is better with each race, and it could get more interesting in following races
for me, Russell constantly above Hamilton is a bit of surprise, having a same car, but I am getting used to that one

Yeah, sorry about Ferrari guys, and I just read that 4 cars with Ferrari engines all failed and DNF. I do feel vindicated with a RB 1-2 finish, but should have been even colder about Ferrari, plucked LeClerc to get the last podium spot and paid the price.

Just not going anywhere for the prancing horse, but you know what they say, bad luck comes in threes and I suspect it will be another week of pain in Canada for them as I really don't see how they can extricate themselves out of this mess in 7 days.

Yes men also for me, i went in Superbru with a one-two for Ferrari (yes risky move again) and ended with a one-two for Redbull and with two DNF for the Italians.

Ferrari really needs to solve this kind of problem, you cant fight for any if you have this big failures. I dont know how Leclerc can feel because you are doing and amazing job and the team its putting all his effort in the trash.

I knew that Leclerc and Sainz would not going to be 1-2 today not because that I expected problems with their engine and hydraulic system but because yesterday both of them made errors after errors and Sainz also made a big one in the start of the final qualifiers yesterday.Leclerc was only because of his bravery in the Pole yesterday but I knew in the race would be a different thing.

I am doing great personally in the last three rounds being 2nd or 3rd but in the rankings this seemed to not help even a bit.

Leclerc has won qualify for Baku. I really hope that tomorrow he will do a good race and also win it, I'm tired to see a nice racer like Leclerc doing so good in qualify mode and so bad in race mode. He deserves to win !

Let's see what will happen tomorrow, hope that he will be lucky.


He may be a good racer but not a perfect one.He missed every single lap by making errors in every lap except the last one which he orchestrated perfectly and got a well deserved pole position.However in the race is a completely different story,he needs to keep up the pressure by not making mistakes at a really difficult and technical track like this one and also Ferrari needs to be very careful with the strategy tomorrow.A single mistake here can cost everyone the race,I mean a mistake in the race but even a bad strategy can cost you a few positions here so I expect a really good race tomorrow,at least no rain so there will be no worthless red flags.
