Liked the summing up you did at the Ringer about the way drivers and teams are learning, and that the "artificial" overtakes will probably not be that for too long. Thank you

The "buttons" can be used to overtake AND defend!

Petition to only count overtakes if they hold the position.

Swapping places by ghosting by each other due to varying battery deployment should not be considered an overtake

All in favour say aye

Not an expert but feels like a huge compromise and not efficient therefore not logical

This is not strategy. Right or wrong, you donโ€™t know in the moment, and hindsight now is a wonderful thing, but they had the opportunity to split their cars taking advantage in both scenarios. They gambled, they didnโ€™t make strategic decisions. #F1

So you can take a cheap energy overtake knowing that you're then vunerble to lose it immediately.. I mean that's not NOT fun

The energy swaps being touted as great overtakes . Definitely visually interesting .. digesting

My guess is that you'd want the power to accelerate as quickly as possible

07.03.2026 19:33 ๐Ÿ‘ 10 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 4 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Lets be clear that super clipping isn't management of any kind. They simply run out of electrical power. They aren't running slow to charge.

It's not a feature, It's a mistake. An entirely predictable and much predicted core issue with the regulations' major premise

People declaring Aston being 'only' 2.5 seconds off as a positive sign is making me feel much better about my own delusions

Watching the onboards towards turn 9 is just sad

just keep in mind we don't know how much trade off there is on one lap vs race pace yet

I'm available to shill for any F1 teams, sponsors, or F1 itself. My price is paddock passes. Not even Sunday. Saturday passes are fine. I know my place on the pecking tree.

Boring season ahead. Only question is how Ferrari will handle team orders with a dominant car
