I have no doubt that all the media will again announce that "Ferrari is faster than Mercedes". As they were announcing every season for the last 4 years. Only to fool the audience to watch the races. I can give you a prediction right now - whichever team takes Lewis Hamilton will win the season. Not because he's so fast, but because of political reasons. So, if Ferrari wants to win they don't need to improve the car or engine. They just need to cash 80 millions for the political icon to drive their car. And the competition will suddenly be harshly penalized even if they aren't guilty. Their engineers will quit, or sabotage the car, and all kinds of shit will happen to Mercedes and Red Bull. So..... Ferrari, that's my advice.

I certainly was baffled how Ferraris chief strategist Inaki Rueda again and again found his way into german media outlets defending Ferraris strategies and critisising Seb...and especially voicing his displeasure of Vettel questioning and overruling the strategy decisions during the race... From the outside Rueda looks like one of those who were not supportive of Seb ..with Carlos he will find good common ground ,I tend to believe...I do not remember who it was but inside Ferraris technical staff some never got over Alonso getting kicked out along the lines of :Seb is a food driver but he us not Alonso...(in bagging impossible results )
@@marcush.1901 They even not only did it with Seb.... They just forgott to pit Leclerc.... How can fucking forgett a driver but yeah Vettel got the worst of it
Ferrari's strategy is a masterpiece. A three-part plan of 1) Wishful thinking, 2) Dependence on sheer luck, and 3) Miraculous intervention from God hisself.
My Predictions (In order) Still same, with small different in midfield battle 1. Mercedes 2. Red Bull 3. Ferrari 4. McLaren 5. Aston Martin 6. Alpha Tauri 7. Alpine 8. Alfa Romeo 9. Haas 10. Williams
I would like to know why Ferrari chooses to not switch to the narrow nose concept, I'd imagine a smaller nose would greatly help take advantage of that MASSIVE undercut under the side pods that they've been able to create. I know changing that small detail requires reworking the entire car to work with the nose but on a fundamental aero concept I ask myself that. I'd like to know what their arguments are to have the wide nose.
Binotto is a shit leader and I think that makes people forget how good a technical director he is. In 2019 Ferrari had the best car imo, but their strategy always let them down, and that's why they took 9 pole positions but only 3 race wins.
I actually think the engine freeze last year helped Ferrari to develop Aero and Chassis upgrades. Turkey was the prime example, rainy weather minimize the engine deficit and Ferrari was fairly competitive in that race until weather dried up. If report is true, Ferrari can improve 25-40 bhp, I like their chance this year
One relatively minor quibble, bearing in mind I find these videos excellent, is how much pre-2020 footage and images you use. I understand certain images just won't be available from 2020, ie two specific people in close conversation, but I would think for the most part 2020 images would be available. With the reality of COVID, images of groups of people without face-mask tend to actually take my attention briefly away from the content to wondering why they aren't wearing masks, before inevitably cluing in that it's an older image.
3:48 ... Drag doesn't occur because of an unexpected loss of engine power, it occurs because something isn't slippery. I think you mean that the previous draggy design was overcome by extra engine power.
Just put a decent engine (which they absolutely will have) in the car and they'll already be a clear #3 behind Merc and RB. They have been forced to learn a lot since they couldn't hide behind the their engine power. Ferrari won't be racing for wins, but it absolutely won't be buried in the midfield.
Lol you are overconfident. I'll see you back here in a year when they haven't made the top 3 again. All they need is a faster engine.. What a simplistic way to look at it.
@@michaelsanderson7823 the Best McLaren can achieve is 2nd. If they are still a costumer. But I hope I am wrong. They have in my opinion by far the best management and team environment. Zak Brown is the man people willing to fight for.
@@michaelsanderson7823 I don't think Mclaren will ever win the title or even seriously challenge Mercedes while being an engine customer to Mercedes. The second they come too close for comfort, Merc will find a way to cut that deal.
They need better fuel that will not knock at high compression/boost At least it sounds like it. Shell doesn’t use a lot of ethanol that does burn fast decreasing knock (unwanted combustion)
I think a third place in constructors next year will be quite resonable if sainz gets it right in a new car and a little more peformane will really help them. You cant forget that the top three fight in 2020 was very close
Why can’t we write off this year? Why is it so terrible to use the year to get Carlos’ feet wet, to develop Charles more, and give the 2022 car a whole year of gestation?
Ferrari should concentrate more on engine itself and be as much competitive as possible . For 2021 they should stop focusing on their aero and concentrate on 2022 aero because a majority of rule changes have to do with aero.
I’m not sure getting rid of Vettel is as strong a move as some think: In my biased oppinion, Vettel, Hamilton, Bottas and Raikkönen are the best development drivers on the grid - maybe not the fastest, but the biggest help for the engineers developing the car. When Bottas left Williams, their performance dropped. Same with Hamilton, and arguably the same with Vettel at Res Bull. I don’t think the Ferrari will improve as much without the feedback of Seb. Although Sainz has helped McLaren improve, a lot of the development still comes from engineers. Look at Haas a few years ago: the feedback from Grosjean showed that the car hadn’t gotten any faster. Same thing as Ferrari in 2018: they made a wrong development strategy, and lost time to Mercedes. LeClerc outperforming Vettel in a poor car gives me vibes of Red Bull’s current situation. Without good driver feedback, the car will improve too slowly, compared to the competition. Aston Martin getting Vettel might prove a master stroke from Otmar!
3rd is a tall order considering the challengers. It would be best to spike 2021 and focus most of the resources on 2022, where Ferrari *could* gain places over the rivals
However, look how Leclerc managed to put up a fight against Mclaren in various circuits last year even with the disastrous engine, the car had two major flaws, unstable rear and low power, the rear after the russian GP upgrades has been improved, so next year they will probably evolve on that, the only other major flaw is the engine
@@KaoruSF that is true but McLaren will get Merc engines and Aston won't have the -15 points. The only unknown variable is Alpine but Renault improved considerably, especially in the latter half of the season.
Great vid! Ferrari's prospects seem dim at best. The frequent leadership changes, Binotto's lazy attitude and lack of consistent results plus typical arrogance make them fail... They need perfectionists, not people who are there just to cash the paycheck. This is the feeling I have from the last 10 seasons at least.
This needs to be a year focused on getting the power unit back to where it needs to be, as it stays for 2022 and beyond. The 2021 car doesn't need to consume more resources than the 2022 one.
I think they should have a Strategy Department and a Team Well-being department (if they don't already have those). Well-being department (prob. there is a better name) focuses on making a great working environment. I think Ferrari today there is too much pressure and when things don't go as well as though there seems to be a clear disappointment and blaming going on. I have no proof of this but it's just my feeling, just listning to radio messages to Vettel during 2020 season I got this feeling. Many other teams are very supportive even when the race didn't go so well. My feeling at least is that it's mostly Ferrari and Red Bull that are stuck in the old way of thinking. If a driver has lots of support and belief in him/her even when failing then that driver usually makes less misstakes and drives better. This department should report to top management but work with the entire team - anonymity important. They should be present as much meetings as possible and draw own conclusions so for example drivers do not need to report things directly - 2 people - hard to be anonymous. Strategy looks back on the previous races and tries to come up with possible solutions for the future when a bad strategy was picked. It also focuses on the next race of course and compares with similar previous races what was a winning strategy then, as well as the current race to take decisions as the race unfolds. I think Ferrari did better this year than in many previous years though but there is still things that could be improved. Continue to explore gray areas like ALL teams but not implement things that are likely to be banned in season. Mercedes DRS for example only banned this year.
Was the loss of engine performance anything to do with the little puff of smoke that seem to emanate from the engine when they pulled out of the garage I wonder?
If Seb have managed to keep up with Charles and scored let say 80% of his points, they would've been at least 5th, fighting for 4th. If Carlos do a proper job this year and with somewhat faster car and without screwing the strategy on too much races, 3rd place is pretty achievable I'd say
Unpopular opinion, but I think if Ferrari can get their engine up to par, the car will be top 3 again. The reason the aero is so bad is they were sacrificing downforce in the name of reducing drag because of how slow their engine was. They know how to make a good aero package, they just need a decent engine I think.
Ferrari needs to get their head in the game for what concerns strategy and pitstops. An unfortunate chassis and engine could be excusable if only they showed that they had what it took to be in the top, the last few years the team with the most experience in F1 looked like the last of the rookies, screwing up pitstops and strategies left and right.
i think that ferrari is technically able to close the gap to mclaren, racing point and renault. But they have problems with the reliability in their pitstops, strategy and organisation, so even if they are fast enough that might not be enough. When Vettel was on a decent pace they managed to mess up his race with bad strategy and slow pitstops. On the other hand Mclaren came out as third with arguably the 5th fastest car over the season.
In all honesty. Give an Italian team double the resources of any other team and the full support of the FIA and they still manage to screw it up. Heads should role, and in Italy you can take that quite seriously. When was the last time they were really the best package? When they had a german behind the wheel, an englishman designing the car and a Frenchman calling the shots.
Im a die hard ferrari fan..... But this time i'll also support vettel and AMR too...and im a big fan of vettel..hope 2021 hes shine again...one of the best driver ever after the magnificient,magical master michael schumacher..
I'd say a more realistic goal for Ferrari next year is 5th, not 3rd. I don't think they'll be able to catch up to either Aston Martin or McLaren for next year, let alone Red Bull or Mercedes.
5:27 Underperforming Vettel? Maybe. But before doubling down in that comment. Please have a look in any track and watch an onboard ride for 5+ laps with him. You will find how terribly difficult that car was to drive.
Good to see Sainz at Ferrari . Next they need a change of Binotto ( almost means Good Man ) , previous being ArivaBene ( means Arived good ) , they need to find one with a name like BuonaPartenza ( Good Start ) then maybe they can WIN against the Merc's ,lol.
Ferrari got targeted hard though. The FIA went after them for exploiting the fuel mid race, then changed the rules in a way that hurt Ferrari the worst, then they froze the engine development. I'm surprised that they finished 6 tbh.
So love it if Lewis asks for toooooooo much, Merc say, "Hello, young George", and Ferrari and McLaren really get their act together. Think Hamilton's ego could be decisive.
Hopefully he gets the boot and George is in. Russell performed vastly better comparing last two races, and I can't wait to laugh at fanboy clowns who think it was performance of driver, not the car in Mercedes - watching 44 fighting for 10th place in Ferrari would be delicious :]
I am sure they will repeat the same program they used since 2009, with the same result. They have had world champions behind the wheel since 2008 so it is most definitely the car.
pit stop timing, aerodynamics package, power unit, i mean, there is a lot to improve, but Ferrari NEEDS to bring the A game this year, or Binotto and lots of people will lose their job.
I predict they will finish 4th next season. Hate to see the classic teams such as Mclaren, Ferrari and Williams not being at the front fighting for wins
When you are blessed with a god sent budget and deliver a season like 2020, what would you do when the budget cap kicks in.... it'd be like VTEC kicking in Reverse. Mattia is like a lost child with no fight and a man crush on Lerclerc. And if Ferrari wants to win again you need to bring Arrievebenne back and the fight he brought with him. Current Situation of Ferrari can be addressed in three words Matters of Mentality.
-21 will be a throwaway year in F1. Everyone is developing their -22 car. Merc will still dominate, but otherwise there might be surprises if some team has made lots of developments for -21 and other teams haven't. 2022 will be the interesting season and if Merc is still as dominant there as it now, F1 is dead to me. Who wants to watch a competition with a predetermined victor?
The way that FIA handled the Ferrari situation from ‘19 to ‘20 was a travesty to the sport. Obviously the details as to the FER power unit were a guarded secret, not allowing FER the time to improve that power output guaranteed that the car would be a dog. It was almost as if the FIA did it so that lower teams would get a boost. That happened. I think the entire situation was handled poorly. To that point, what does that “special” button on the MB steering wheel do? The one that RUS forgot to turn off.
I think that Vettel will recover with Aston Martin but I worry about Leclerc and Saints if they stay and Ferrari doesn’t recover. Also Ferrari has ended Alonso’s, Vettel, and Kimmies, and Schumacher career
They might as well just tank the 2021 season and focus on 2022. That's what Merc did in the season before the current hybrid era began. There's no point spending a lot of resource on the current car when you know that there's a whole new car coming next year.
Ferrari have enough money to spend a lot of money on both and have a competitive car in both seasons . They got paid the most money this season for finishing 6th and then they’ll get a lot more money that’s confidential that they can’t tell anyone else about , they get paid tons tons more than any other team
@@aidenwhelan3973 It's not just about the money, it's also about the time you spend on the cars and the priorities you set. I'm sure the reason why they were so terrible last year wasn't lack of funding.

Good to go?! Aw thats wishful thinking. I think you may have watched the wrong season fella.
@@cfctvaus as themselves are saying, they aren't aiming to beat RBR or Mercedes, but to get third place, it's unrealistic to compare them to those two now, and of they get to be the best of the rest, it's a good starting point that can send a strong foundation for what is to come
Last time I was this early my girlfriend was utterly disappointed.
hahaaaaa
2 minutes🤭
Kamikaze move right there m8
Is she a Ferrari fan?
You guys have girlfriends?
Maybe they can just simply remove the slow button haha

Push your employees towards unrealistic goals forever draining them and never realizing your full potential.
The question also are about their strategists
Watching Ferrari's strategy throw away results in 2018 and 2019 was seriously depressing. Seb really got the shaft.
I certainly was baffled how Ferraris chief strategist Inaki Rueda again and again found his way into german media outlets defending Ferraris strategies and critisising Seb...and especially voicing his displeasure of Vettel questioning and overruling the strategy decisions during the race...
From the outside Rueda looks like one of those who were not supportive of Seb ..with Carlos he will find good common ground ,I tend to believe...I do not remember who it was but inside Ferraris technical staff some never got over Alonso getting kicked out along the lines of :Seb is a food driver but he us not Alonso...(in bagging impossible results )
@@marcush.1901 They even not only did it with Seb.... They just forgott to pit Leclerc.... How can fucking forgett a driver but yeah Vettel got the worst of it
Ferrari's strategy is a masterpiece. A three-part plan of 1) Wishful thinking, 2) Dependence on sheer luck, and 3) Miraculous intervention from God hisself.
Guys what are you’re predictions for the 2021 season? 🤔 - my prediction: Aston Martin, McLaren, Ferrari and Alpine will close the gap to RB and Merc
mclaren 2 wins
Ricciardo to suprise everyone and dominate Norris.
@@garythefishable that’s not really a surprise tho, Ric is known to be one of the best on the current grid atm
My Predictions (In order)
Still same, with small different in midfield battle
1. Mercedes
2. Red Bull
3. Ferrari
4. McLaren
5. Aston Martin
6. Alpha Tauri
7. Alpine
8. Alfa Romeo
9. Haas
10. Williams
@@jayjay3013 Norris is very highly rated himself but I think the gap between them might suprise a few people.
Last time i was this early. The mechanics came to fix our Haas milling machine [Again]
LITERALLY HAVE A MECHANIC COMING IN TO FIX A HAAS MILLING MACHINE TODAY LOLOL F
XDD
Need to improve pit stop
This season doesn’t have to be a complete revival but I think it’s essential they have significant improvement and get on the upward trajectory
They need to fix their engine for 2022 first and foremost, otherwise they are really screwed.
I would like to know why Ferrari chooses to not switch to the narrow nose concept, I'd imagine a smaller nose would greatly help take advantage of that MASSIVE undercut under the side pods that they've been able to create. I know changing that small detail requires reworking the entire car to work with the nose but on a fundamental aero concept I ask myself that. I'd like to know what their arguments are to have the wide nose.
What is the final backgroundmusic , anyone can name it ?
So they have to improve the whole car like the engine, suspension, aero, etc
how farrari plans to recover ?
Me : Do what reanault did to cyril (because it would actually make sense unlike reanault)
Good point
Noted
Cyril was a hypocrite tbh though. Never liked him
@@darraghobrien1028 yeh but renault has improved massively cus of him
Binotto is a shit leader and I think that makes people forget how good a technical director he is. In 2019 Ferrari had the best car imo, but their strategy always let them down, and that's why they took 9 pole positions but only 3 race wins.
I actually think the engine freeze last year helped Ferrari to develop Aero and Chassis upgrades. Turkey was the prime example, rainy weather minimize the engine deficit and Ferrari was fairly competitive in that race until weather dried up. If report is true, Ferrari can improve 25-40 bhp, I like their chance this year
Leclerc and Sainz are fantastic drivers. They deserve a car that works properly.
One relatively minor quibble, bearing in mind I find these videos excellent, is how much pre-2020 footage and images you use. I understand certain images just won't be available from 2020, ie two specific people in close conversation, but I would think for the most part 2020 images would be available. With the reality of COVID, images of groups of people without face-mask tend to actually take my attention briefly away from the content to wondering why they aren't wearing masks, before inevitably cluing in that it's an older image.
3:48 ... Drag doesn't occur because of an unexpected loss of engine power, it occurs because something isn't slippery. I think you mean that the previous draggy design was overcome by extra engine power.
Just put a decent engine (which they absolutely will have) in the car and they'll already be a clear #3 behind Merc and RB. They have been forced to learn a lot since they couldn't hide behind the their engine power. Ferrari won't be racing for wins, but it absolutely won't be buried in the midfield.
Lol you are overconfident. I'll see you back here in a year when they haven't made the top 3 again. All they need is a faster engine.. What a simplistic way to look at it.
@@chillmott jheez bud you’ve clearly got a bee in your bonnet, you’ve made like the same comment about a thousand times in this comment section
Stopo deleting my replies. He literally has the word in his name.
In Binotto we trust
In Maranello we die.
That’s ill placed faith
Ferrari work like mafia binotto is a marked man !
I've got nothing against him..I'm Italian and I feel embarrassed every time I see Binotto representing Ferrari. Pathetic as his leadership.
I hope they bounce back. I have no trust in RB, all they’re good for is running their mouth; Ferrari are the only hope.
True
Yea in few words it is i completely agree with you in that regard
I think in a few years McLaren will be up there, but short term I think you’re right
@@michaelsanderson7823 the Best McLaren can achieve is 2nd. If they are still a costumer. But I hope I am wrong. They have in my opinion by far the best management and team environment. Zak Brown is the man people willing to fight for.
@@michaelsanderson7823 I don't think Mclaren will ever win the title or even seriously challenge Mercedes while being an engine customer to Mercedes.
The second they come too close for comfort, Merc will find a way to cut that deal.
I can’t believe that there is even the slightest blame on vettel
Great video Edd keep up the good work 👍
Please tell me Ferrari didn't just say that P3 is their *MINIMUM* target for 2021 year...
They need better fuel that will not knock at high compression/boost
At least it sounds like it. Shell doesn’t use a lot of ethanol that does burn fast decreasing knock (unwanted combustion)
Need a Brit back at the helm, Barnard, Brawn and Vowles all made the difference, pity they couldn’t hang on to James.
I think a third place in constructors next year will be quite resonable if sainz gets it right in a new car and a little more peformane will really help them. You cant forget that the top three fight in 2020 was very close
Why can’t we write off this year? Why is it so terrible to use the year to get Carlos’ feet wet, to develop Charles more, and give the 2022 car a whole year of gestation?
Sponsors want jam today, not the promise of jam tomorrow
2022 is a big unknown, but Ferrari certainly must make a remarkable comback.
They need Arrivabene back.
Ferrari should concentrate more on engine itself and be as much competitive as possible . For 2021 they should stop focusing on their aero and concentrate on 2022 aero because a majority of rule changes have to do with aero.
I’m not sure getting rid of Vettel is as strong a move as some think: In my biased oppinion, Vettel, Hamilton, Bottas and Raikkönen are the best development drivers on the grid - maybe not the fastest, but the biggest help for the engineers developing the car. When Bottas left Williams, their performance dropped. Same with Hamilton, and arguably the same with Vettel at Res Bull.
I don’t think the Ferrari will improve as much without the feedback of Seb. Although Sainz has helped McLaren improve, a lot of the development still comes from engineers. Look at Haas a few years ago: the feedback from Grosjean showed that the car hadn’t gotten any faster. Same thing as Ferrari in 2018: they made a wrong development strategy, and lost time to Mercedes.
LeClerc outperforming Vettel in a poor car gives me vibes of Red Bull’s current situation. Without good driver feedback, the car will improve too slowly, compared to the competition. Aston Martin getting Vettel might prove a master stroke from Otmar!
Time to bring back the the ferrari passion and belive in your car and drivers
3rd is a tall order considering the challengers. It would be best to spike 2021 and focus most of the resources on 2022, where Ferrari *could* gain places over the rivals
However, look how Leclerc managed to put up a fight against Mclaren in various circuits last year even with the disastrous engine, the car had two major flaws, unstable rear and low power, the rear after the russian GP upgrades has been improved, so next year they will probably evolve on that, the only other major flaw is the engine
@@KaoruSF that is true but McLaren will get Merc engines and Aston won't have the -15 points. The only unknown variable is Alpine but Renault improved considerably, especially in the latter half of the season.
Ferrari would improve if they removed binotto, and returned Arrivabene. Binotto is one of the main problems!
Don't forget the need for discipline in both race tactics aswell as in pitstops.
Great vid! Ferrari's prospects seem dim at best. The frequent leadership changes, Binotto's lazy attitude and lack of consistent results plus typical arrogance make them fail... They need perfectionists, not people who are there just to cash the paycheck. This is the feeling I have from the last 10 seasons at least.
This needs to be a year focused on getting the power unit back to where it needs to be, as it stays for 2022 and beyond. The 2021 car doesn't need to consume more resources than the 2022 one.
I think they should have a Strategy Department and a Team Well-being department (if they don't already have those).
Well-being department (prob. there is a better name) focuses on making a great working environment. I think Ferrari today there is too much pressure and when things don't go as well as though there seems to be a clear disappointment and blaming going on. I have no proof of this but it's just my feeling, just listning to radio messages to Vettel during 2020 season I got this feeling. Many other teams are very supportive even when the race didn't go so well. My feeling at least is that it's mostly Ferrari and Red Bull that are stuck in the old way of thinking. If a driver has lots of support and belief in him/her even when failing then that driver usually makes less misstakes and drives better. This department should report to top management but work with the entire team - anonymity important. They should be present as much meetings as possible and draw own conclusions so for example drivers do not need to report things directly - 2 people - hard to be anonymous.
Strategy looks back on the previous races and tries to come up with possible solutions for the future when a bad strategy was picked. It also focuses on the next race of course and compares with similar previous races what was a winning strategy then, as well as the current race to take decisions as the race unfolds. I think Ferrari did better this year than in many previous years though but there is still things that could be improved.
Continue to explore gray areas like ALL teams but not implement things that are likely to be banned in season. Mercedes DRS for example only banned this year.
Was the loss of engine performance anything to do with the little puff of smoke that seem to emanate from the engine when they pulled out of the garage I wonder?
If Seb have managed to keep up with Charles and scored let say 80% of his points, they would've been at least 5th, fighting for 4th. If Carlos do a proper job this year and with somewhat faster car and without screwing the strategy on too much races, 3rd place is pretty achievable I'd say
Formula video + listening to the music I like (Delta Parole, Metallica and other) make me feel the speed and excitement!
Looks like 2021 is going to be disastrous from the title
Unpopular opinion, but I think if Ferrari can get their engine up to par, the car will be top 3 again. The reason the aero is so bad is they were sacrificing downforce in the name of reducing drag because of how slow their engine was. They know how to make a good aero package, they just need a decent engine I think.
Ferrari needs to get their head in the game for what concerns strategy and pitstops. An unfortunate chassis and engine could be excusable if only they showed that they had what it took to be in the top, the last few years the team with the most experience in F1 looked like the last of the rookies, screwing up pitstops and strategies left and right.
i think that ferrari is technically able to close the gap to mclaren, racing point and renault. But they have problems with the reliability in their pitstops, strategy and organisation, so even if they are fast enough that might not be enough.
When Vettel was on a decent pace they managed to mess up his race with bad strategy and slow pitstops. On the other hand Mclaren came out as third with arguably the 5th fastest car over the season.
As always, another excellent video
In all honesty. Give an Italian team double the resources of any other team and the full support of the FIA and they still manage to screw it up. Heads should role, and in Italy you can take that quite seriously. When was the last time they were really the best package? When they had a german behind the wheel, an englishman designing the car and a Frenchman calling the shots.
Im a die hard ferrari fan.....
But this time i'll also support vettel and AMR too...and im a big fan of vettel..hope 2021 hes shine again...one of the best driver ever after the magnificient,magical master michael schumacher..
Hope and prayer. That’s about it, at least until 2022.
I heard Mercedes may test their 2022 car on one of the test days
I'd say a more realistic goal for Ferrari next year is 5th, not 3rd. I don't think they'll be able to catch up to either Aston Martin or McLaren for next year, let alone Red Bull or Mercedes.
3rd!? will they be using their "special" 2019 engines or what ....?
nah. they will run the short track layouts, while the other teams have to go the long way.
What music is he playing
5:27 Underperforming Vettel? Maybe. But before doubling down in that comment. Please have a look in any track and watch an onboard ride for 5+ laps with him. You will find how terribly difficult that car was to drive.
Good to see Sainz at Ferrari . Next they need a change of Binotto ( almost means Good Man ) , previous being ArivaBene ( means Arived good ) , they need to find one with a name like BuonaPartenza ( Good Start ) then maybe they can WIN against the Merc's ,lol.
What about the year before last? And the one before that, and the one before that, and the one before that...
I'm going bold and predicting a leclerc drivers championship and a Ferrari constructors
Dream big!
Ferrari are placed well for the sliding scale for aerodynamic testing this year. That should help them even more, hopefully.
Yeah they’ll have more time in the wind tunnel than a lot of other teams
Ferrari got targeted hard though. The FIA went after them for exploiting the fuel mid race, then changed the rules in a way that hurt Ferrari the worst, then they froze the engine development. I'm surprised that they finished 6 tbh.
So love it if Lewis asks for toooooooo much, Merc say, "Hello, young George", and Ferrari and McLaren really get their act together.
Think Hamilton's ego could be decisive.
Hopefully he gets the boot and George is in. Russell performed vastly better comparing last two races, and I can't wait to laugh at fanboy clowns who think it was performance of driver, not the car in Mercedes - watching 44 fighting for 10th place in Ferrari would be delicious :]
"Renault is on the up with Fernando Alonso" ahahaha that is a good joke
I am sure they will repeat the same program they used since 2009, with the same result. They have had world champions behind the wheel since 2008 so it is most definitely the car.
Hope this season better than last
pit stop timing, aerodynamics package, power unit, i mean, there is a lot to improve, but Ferrari NEEDS to bring the A game this year, or Binotto and lots of people will lose their job.
I really hope Vettel will be ahead of them. Hope he gets his Mojo back.
Vettel was almost bullied away from ferrari imo
I predict they will finish 4th next season.
Hate to see the classic teams such as Mclaren, Ferrari and Williams not being at the front fighting for wins
You missed:
-Ferrari pitstops are horrid
- Ferrari strategy... well, it doesn't exist
Best videos to pop on my feed!!
We noticed the “come 2gether by oyy “ 😎😎
When you are blessed with a god sent budget and deliver a season like 2020, what would you do when the budget cap kicks in.... it'd be like VTEC kicking in Reverse.
Mattia is like a lost child with no fight and a man crush on Lerclerc. And if Ferrari wants to win again you need to bring Arrievebenne back and the fight he brought with him.
Current Situation of Ferrari can be addressed in three words Matters of Mentality.
Ferrari is red
Red Bull is blue
Most poems rhyme
But this one doesn't !!
-21 will be a throwaway year in F1. Everyone is developing their -22 car. Merc will still dominate, but otherwise there might be surprises if some team has made lots of developments for -21 and other teams haven't. 2022 will be the interesting season and if Merc is still as dominant there as it now, F1 is dead to me. Who wants to watch a competition with a predetermined victor?
The tracing point was noticeably quicker then the mclaren and Renault
You think part of the agreement of FIA and Ferrari was lower engine power for next 2020 and 2021 and we just dont know about it?
Background Music?
Cling film to keep the tyres fresh
From a "MAGICAL" fuel system to a "MAGICAL" electronics controls, for "MAGICAL" LeClerc laps.
Stop crying, Mercedes still won the championship and will win 2021
The way that FIA handled the Ferrari situation from ‘19 to ‘20 was a travesty to the sport. Obviously the details as to the FER power unit were a guarded secret, not allowing FER the time to improve that power output guaranteed that the car would be a dog. It was almost as if the FIA did it so that lower teams would get a boost. That happened. I think the entire situation was handled poorly. To that point, what does that “special” button on the MB steering wheel do? The one that RUS forgot to turn off.
I think that Vettel will recover with Aston Martin but I worry about Leclerc and Saints if they stay and Ferrari doesn’t recover. Also Ferrari has ended Alonso’s, Vettel, and Kimmies, and Schumacher career
Title: How to put the Ferrari Master 🅱lan back on course?
They might as well just tank the 2021 season and focus on 2022. That's what Merc did in the season before the current hybrid era began. There's no point spending a lot of resource on the current car when you know that there's a whole new car coming next year.
Ferrari have enough money to spend a lot of money on both and have a competitive car in both seasons . They got paid the most money this season for finishing 6th and then they’ll get a lot more money that’s confidential that they can’t tell anyone else about , they get paid tons tons more than any other team
@@aidenwhelan3973 It's not just about the money, it's also about the time you spend on the cars and the priorities you set. I'm sure the reason why they were so terrible last year wasn't lack of funding.
Ferrari: we will be better next year
Binotto: Lets build a rocket ship
But hey, Ferrari not being in the top 4 brought us new podium winners and other teams higher placed in constructors
Its not a real victory tho...ferrari literally gifted McLaren third place
