Leclerc has already captured the main seat at Ferrari by this contract extension then.  

Leclerc is everything for Ferrari now as they have one of the most skilled drivers on the grid. But they still don't care about improving themselves at all. We still see the same mistakes over and over again. Leclerc has also been fed up with these unbelievable mistakes but he still loves Ferrari on the other hand. But as long as Ferrari don't make a big change in their crew then I don't expect this kind of strategical mistakes to come to an end.

 I dont know if this its to celebrate or not, because for me Leclerc its one of the most talented driver out there, but Ferrari its making really bad and making look him worst.

I hope Ferrari can make a car where he can show to us all how good is him.

Are you talking about that steroid engine made by Ferrari? If it was that it was clearly a cheat engine made by Ferrari, no matter what we think, if Ferrari and the FIA sign and agreement and they never show what happen... it was because if Ferrari (the main battle cavalry of F1 as a brand) its cheating can harm so much the category, so they make that agreement confidential. And plus the FIA talk with all the other teams and said to them to stop to presure what happen with that......

Next year Ferrari was a mess and his engine a piece of shit. And if Ferrari was innocent they are not gonna sign that.

So a cheaty engine that Mercedes used the same technology 2 years later...

You know it is the slow time in F1 competition when you have the drivers coming out with videos like this.

Max Verstappen Learns How to Drift | Feat Mad Mike
"Formula 1 World Champion and Oracle Red Bull Racing Driver Max Verstappen, took on a lifelong ambition to learn to drive a drift car with the help of none other than professional drift driver and record-breaker ‘Mad’ Mike Whiddett."
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GtfutUHYfO8

With Red Bull and Verstappen being so much ahead on the leaderboard, why not display your fun-side with some drifting.
To show you are not having a care in the world during the summer break of your sport!

[Volgastallion]

Yeah and also after so many years of RedBull making this commercials activities i dont like it so much, its always the same.

One thing i always highlighted its for me drift drivers are one of the best for sure, the knowledge of the car you had to have and the speed in reaction its beyond my comprehension.

[emrecemsan]

I watched a short part of Verstappen drifting and destroying something with the rear of his car at the same time. It was really lovely to watch. 

When I watched this video Ken Block came to my mind. He was such an amazing rally driver with wonderful stunts. It was a big joy to watch his great skills and control over the car. He died quite young at the age of 55 unfortunately. Rally is a really dangerous sport. I know Ken Block didn't crash in a rally car. But my point is that you just need to have insane reflexes to be competitive in this sport. This is like a common point for rally and F1. But it feels like your reflexes need to be a little stronger as for rally.

Yeah you noticed that too Volgastallion.
One of the videos from their channel had that helicopter scene with the drift car from a promotion two years ago featuring Mad Mike.

They probably recycling the expensive shots enabling them to pay Max when he starts negotiating more than what Leclerc is going to be making going into 2029.

14 more days until the next race.

Fan fact, Verstappen took a penalty on the last GP on purpose.

He changed his engine even if he had no problem only to get a new fresh engine for the next GP at his home in Holland.

According to Vasseur they will be making some sort of changes in the coming weeks:
Changes to Ferrari leadership structure "in the coming weeks" - Vasseur
https://twitter.com/racefansdotnet/status/1690136270385639424

Ferrari 675 to be an "improved" RB19

Ferrari have been studying the RB19 for some time with the goal being to adopt a large part of the aerodynamic philosophy born from the brilliant mind of Adrian Newey and to improve it

As far as the power unit is concerned - the current deficit that the Ferrari Engine pays on the Hybrid side compared to the Honda engine should be eliminated too

This is the plan on paper for the Scuderia

The fact is that RBR is not only aerodynamic.
They discovered a strange sound when they are at high speed, until someone will unwrap it they will dominate.

I think this is why they are going so fast.

[Volgastallion]

Here we go again.... Ferrari claiming to be near to the dominant car for the 54782416 time. Come on i cant trust in them anymore. So much deception on me.

And asides im not a Ferrari guy i want to see them again fighting and not being a one more team in the field, also to see Leclerc driving for something and showing to all of us his skills.

Do you remember that race in Bahrain between Leclerc and Verstappen, amazing one.

They haven't claimed it.

This is what the newspaper wants to write. Propaganda to sell more copies.

They just said they will have a better car.

[FanEagle]

The commercial was great, we also got to see why Max gets paid the way he does, because that dude just tried once and then on the second try he did it all. He had to learn what the car can do and how it can do it, but after learning and listening to the what car was giving him, he was able to do whatever he was asked to do. I am not saying this matters of course, we have seen what he is capable of doing with an F1 car and that alone is enough to understand why he is great but this was another good thing to watch.

I like these stuff, I remember a lot of commercials with these f1 people in and they are almost always quite fun to watch as well. In the end we need some sort of fun stuff in the middle of races to keep it entertaining.

According to the latest rumors Hamilton will renew his contract this summer, this month with Mercedes.

The only doubt is about the duration of the contract, how many years? 2 - 3?

Ohhh no, please no (insert meme of the office).

I want Mercedes to change Hamilton, im very tired of him and all his "enviroment", you know what i mean, and also i like to see another driver to take the chance to drive a Mercedes alongside Russel.

Look at that I thought he was going to drive the Helicopter, surely like Max Verstappen has said this is the 1st time that he likely drift and so I really think he enjoyed this so much, but upon seeing some video of him drifting he was with Daniel Ricciardo and that was 5 years ago, well the hilarious one was for him to knock out the  very big hand of Horner when drifting, and surely this drifting thing he can surely use this to save his F1 car from getting into the gravel, just like what he did in this video, https://www.youtube.com/shorts/CRiaIyiAGRo

Rally Race is insane as well and for sure you will be needing a lot of drifting in it with F1 it was like you will pretty much be needing to drift in going into that kind of race which is insane, but for sure Drifting is also needed in the little time with F1 when Max Verstappen save his Car from getting out into the gravel, with Drifting here is the video, https://www.youtube.com/shorts/CRiaIyiAGRo

Side fresh news.

But a Red Bull ended up on a roof in Oracle Red Bull Racing's latest commercial for the brand new track in Las Vegas with their promotional video released a couple of days ago.

Looks like the team are still having fun during the summer break for the season without Verstappen in this one. For once!

Mmmm i dont really like so much the idea. Because its gonna be a same car for all, and i dont think motor sports its for the fit of Olimpics, but well today we see anything in to the olimpics, so why not? More sports, more money for tv.

Oh you may have a point.
But I don't think so, big drivers will be scared to lose their status.

Like imagine if Verstappen goes and with the same car will just finish in 7th place or something like that.
